Recommended Posts

Marched 82,83, 84, 85, 86 in the Madison Scouts org. was this close to going and trying out for SCV ( the only corps I would have left Madison for) didnt go, finished 87, 88, 89 in my home town Corps, the rest is history. Man I would of loved marching that 87 SCV show, but I am glad I didnt.

I marched in a local-circuit junior corps back in the day.... then with a DCA corps (Sunrisers).

My goal before joining Sun was to march with the Garfield Cadets for the 1977 season, but it didn't pan out.(Something about my parents telling me I needed to work that summer instead of going on tour....LOL.)

So I joined Sun. Making DCI Finals with Cadets in '77 would have been great... but winning a DCA title with Sunrisers that summer helped me get over that pretty quickly. :smile:

I was a French horn player in drum corps... and I always thought it would be cool to march with the Blue Devils in that French horn line back then. :thumbup:

I marched Southwind.

I always wanted to march Blue Devils and Santa Clara Vanguard.

Another curse of living in the midwest.

I think every brass player has to fantasize about marching lead sop at BD... maybe just a little bit, but the appeal is always there.

Then again the same appeal applies is there for marching contra at PR Bluecoats . ;)

I wish I could've marched SCV - the visual style was more suited to my preferences.

I wish I could've marched Madison Scouts - the tradition is very appealing to me.

I wish I could've learned and marched snare - I love the sound and play a bit on my own.

I wish I could've marched guard - just for a different take on spinning things.

But I'm glad I marched what I marched where I marched when I marched. Wouldn't trade it!
