kickhaltsforlife Posted August 17, 2009 Share Posted August 17, 2009 tell the guy to your right to stop being a dot diver. sometimes that's the only thing you can do in that band... forms are optional... at least most people think so... all I have left is my dot, lol.

kickhaltsforlife Posted August 17, 2009 Share Posted August 17, 2009 anyway I think next year will be yet another crazy battle to get into finals. All of these corps, especially 13-17 have the talent. hell I think talent is great all the way down... it's on designers to get it together pretty much... and just get clean.

Honestly, I would NOT want to hear what butchering Guidry would do to that piece Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
liebot Posted August 17, 2009 Share Posted August 17, 2009 Honestly, I would NOT want to hear what butchering Guidry would do to that piece Agreed. Destroying First Circle and Russian was enough. Let's leave the Crossmen classics alone for awhile, or at least until we can get an arranger that does them justice. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Taylor Posted August 17, 2009 Share Posted August 17, 2009 .... Those are usually the same alumni who never supported the corps when they were giving them what they wanted to hear. While I personally agree with many of the complaints about the shows since 2007, I have no sympathy for those people. Every year my wife and I get people claiming to be alumni at east coast shows who come to our trailer and say "You took my corps away from me." We tell them, "We've never seen you at any alumni events, we've never seen your name on lists of donors, and we've never seen you volunteer." These are the people who said they wouldn't support the corps because they hated George until 2006, then changed their tune to hating Texas after 2007. I take their words well salted.

xbones7480 Posted August 17, 2009 Share Posted August 17, 2009 You can still show your support by joining Crossmen "Club Unity." I have the list, I know who's on it. Thanks. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Taylor Posted August 17, 2009 Share Posted August 17, 2009 ..... I stand corrected, then. I hope you'll forgive my frustration. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
