What the fans want...2011


Recommended Posts

entertain me don't give me some bull crap topic that sounds like a art majors phd paper something like "the color blue and it relation to a child's development" as a show theme. play music not fragments of themes that only a musicologist would know. have the guard do equipment instead of dance and "emoting" as a bunch of individuals. but that's not what drum corp is anymore its made to be as esoteric and "high brow" as it can be play for the judges and the instructors the crowd just sitting there going duh. guess I am just a stupid old dinosaur and could never understand "today's" drum corp yea that's right so f this crap. I will no longer go to shows spend any $$ or support something that I no longer understand. That's why your stands are empty you no longer entertain us little people.

Easy, Rover - control yourself, you'll bust a blood vessel.

:spitting::spitting::spitting::spitting::worthy::worthy:

- Brass limited to bell-front bugles in the key of G

- No electronic or otherwise non-acoustic sounds

- Musically focused show designs

- Judging split of 65% musical, 35% visual

- Appropriate guard uniforms

- Everything else roughly the same

A very wise youth - this one is!

Totally agree but didn't they have capitalization in the stone age? :spitting:

I think you mistook a rehearsal for a show. I've never been to a drum corps show with "empty" stands. Heck the one all OC show I went to a few years ago had a crowd that filled at least 80% of the seating area.
