Invader Posted July 24, 2009 Share Posted July 24, 2009 Someone explain to me how Crossmen and the corps that won percussion are even on the same sheets with regard to demand? Crossmen was a whole order of magnitude higher. One of the biggest jokes in DCI, IMHO. Play the game. Play only slow rolls. Set up everything with a check pattern. Hey, we'll give you high drums LOL I love this comment because it is right on. A friend who is a very respected percussion teacher said that the Crossmen line was playing to many notes and he got that from the judges.

Too hard of a book too, right? And too many nasty beats? And the sticks are probably too high, also, right? They should have lowered their sticks and played tap triplet rolls. Then you get a trophy. Bollocks. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
