2000Cadet Posted July 8, 2010 Share Posted July 8, 2010 It is so freakin' funny that all those "well *I* organize a parade and if they did this blah,blah,blah" guys posted in a big huff and then Crown walks away from the parade with the "Best Drum Corps" award given by the parade organizers. ROFLMAO!! I never knew they gave out parade awards. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ROFLMAO!! And this means what exactly? That they can look like crap and win awards. That truly speaks volumes about an organization, when they do something half ###ed and are proud of it! Way to go!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No. It means that everyone who based their judgement on a short youtube clip clearly did not evaluate crown properly. I seriously doubt that the criteria for "best drum corps in parade" was "organization that best exemplifies looking like crap and executing half-###ed".

Newseditor44 Posted July 8, 2010 Author Share Posted July 8, 2010 On behalf of Carolina Crown,I think you guys might like the email we got from somebody that went to both the parade AND the contest in Bristol. Go to our Facebook page to see it. Also, the videos posted on our FB page were from the Wakefield parade and they were very appreciative of our performance there. Enjoy! No one is doubting that the crowd loved the kids Eric! They have tremendous talent and are fun to watch. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
skeptic Posted July 8, 2010 Share Posted July 8, 2010 (edited) And this means what exactly? That they can look like crap and win awards. That truly speaks volumes about an organization, when they do something half ###ed and are proud of it! Way to go!!! Cant you get it through your head that this is what people want? Yes, there is a time to be professional and take things seriously but that time is in warmups and on the field. The way Crown did the parade made people who know nothing of drum corps interested in it. How is doing something that gains fans wrong? If the players and crowd dig it, whats wrong with it? Its a new era of drum corps, deal with it. Edited July 8, 2010 by skeptic Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Newseditor44 Posted July 8, 2010 Author Share Posted July 8, 2010 This has been taken way out of context, and probably about to get ugly. To make everyone happy, I'm closing it and moving on... Bawker, do your thing Buddy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
