A mini-corps first?

I have seen many DCA mini-corps performances. This past one may have been the best over-all, from top to bottom all the groups were great.

I was just wondering, SineWave made a decision to not have a drum major/conductor...has that ever been attempted in the DCA mini-corps competition before? I was wondering if anybody noticed.

Vigilantes did not use a DM in 09 and their DM this year was involved but not the driving force behind the show.

I'm pretty certain - where's dick pronti when you need him - that in the beginning... many groups performed without a separate conductor.

Just a question? Star had 23 on the field last night.Did the size of mini-corps increase or did the play a few extra?

From the Anthems to the final notes, The Mini Corps show was great entertainment. These Corps are really into raising that bar and they challenge each other every year.

Many Corps have competed without DM. At the last Congress we changed the rule as to not count the Major into the 21. Since then most use a major.

Star has some subs who fill in for them during the season, at the finals performance they ask if all can play.

I have so many thnkyou's to get out, It was another wonderful night at I&E.

Pretty much what we are doing top 10 horns and the rest alternates.Percussion though has been a strain on me.We can at least count on our set drummer.

Shenanadoah Sound in 2006 did a mini-corps performance with no drum major/conductor and also had drill thru out their show. :beer:
