Matt_S Posted April 20, 2010 Share Posted April 20, 2010 This is kind of a follow-up to Kyle's thread in the DCI section. How many of you marched DCA without ever marching in DCI? I missed my window to march in junior corps. Now, as an adult looking around for activities and organizations to be a part of, I can't help but think joining a senior corps would be a perfect way to stay busy, play some trumpet, and meet people who share a passion of mine. It'd be nice if there was one in my area, so I could check them out. How common is it for someone to march DCA without marching DCI first? Would I meet many others like me, or are most people veterans of junior corps? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BigW Posted April 20, 2010 Share Posted April 20, 2010 DCA only, sir. Money wasn't there, I was with a very good DCA unit at the time, and Where I wanted to go was different from where Dad wished I would've wanted to go. I still was well educated, and had a great experience over 6 years of it. Do I wish I'd have had a crack at BD, or the Bridgemen during that period of time? Sure, but really, no regrets here. We had a great corps and had some great experiences on and off the field. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was never able to do a summer tour with a DCi corps, so DCA corps has been my first full drum corps season experience. I am glad I am in it and just like you mentioned, it is a great way to be around people that share my same passion for the activity. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
John M. Johnson Posted April 20, 2010 Share Posted April 20, 2010 Me too. I thought that since I was a woodwind player that there would be no way that I could march in a junior corps. I had the opportunity to at least try out for...Phantom 96. Whoops. So it has been DCA all the way since 2000. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
