Rimba47 Posted March 9, 2010 Share Posted March 9, 2010 A serious fan: If they can respect what corps/designers do from any decade without complaining about how the activity is evolving and regardless of how instrumentations might have changed.A non-serious fan: Remember when drum corps was still drum corps Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jjeffeory Posted March 11, 2010 Share Posted March 11, 2010 SO why not just mention me by name next time ? I thought they did, but it didn't get past the filter! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
perc2100 Posted March 11, 2010 Share Posted March 11, 2010 Boy, do I ever So for those of us non-serious DCI fans, what happened? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Slow Adam Posted March 11, 2010 Share Posted March 11, 2010 So for those of us non-serious DCI fans, what happened? A couple of corps that should would have been 3rd and 5th in Division II placed 1st and 2nd in Division III? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
perc2100 Posted March 11, 2010 Share Posted March 11, 2010 A couple of corps that should would have been 3rd and 5th in Division II placed 1st and 2nd in Division III? Was 08 the first season of "Open Class" where Div. 3 corps competed with Div. 2 corps (I know that's been the case for a long time, but there was always at least a Div. 3 winner, even if they placed 3rd or 4th over-all)? And how would that affect Memphis Sound (I see they were 12th that year?). I used to teach a Div. 3 corps in the 90's, but lost track of rules/regulations for them awhile back.

A humble flag lover Posted June 15, 2010 Share Posted June 15, 2010 I will always call contras contras, and I will probably still call them Soprano (Empire marches G still, woot woot!) but I may call them Trumpet eventually (out of habit of course).Contras will stay contras though! and to the person who said you are a true fan if you were born before 1985...well not true lol I was born ten years later then that (do the math) and I know more about DCI than the average joe. Sadly i'm the only person in my high school with any knowledge of the existence of drumcorps Same here! I feel isolated! My school always goes to the Southeastern championships, but my band director, staff, and I are the only ones who actually pay attention and care! Unfortunately my bd doesn't know much concerning history so I can't talk to him about that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TomPeashey Posted June 15, 2010 Share Posted June 15, 2010 If you talk about how wet you really got during the thunderstorm deluge at retreat in Whitewater, WI in 1972 (DCI Championship #1) and had a hard time hearing Anaheim's winning score because you were running too fast... (never knew I could run that fast) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
