Lee Beddis hired as Madison Scouts Director of Percussion


Recommended Posts

Now I'm wondering who (if anyone) Lee will bring with him as far as techs.

Or will the same people remain on staff that were there the past couple of

seasons. And of course, I'm starting to wonder what may be in

the works for the 2012 show and how they are going to top what they did

this past season! Frankly, I would love to see the Scouts tackle some

Cuban Jazz in the form of another Robert W. Smith original!

Is that because drum corps kids in this day and age traditionally follow an instructor to another corps rather than having corps loyalty? Or is it because this has been the case for a number of years that members, especially in the percussion sections follow their staff?

I guess I will go ahead and site 2 examples. 2011-The Rennicks to SCV, kids bailed on Phantom. 2007-McNutt to Cadets, kids bailed on Madison(though not all made that line).

Just curious.

Actually, there were only a few that followed Colin to Cadets in 2007.

Why? They came in 6th in drums last year. 4th at semifinals. Scouts drums came in 12th at finals. 13th at semifinals.

An instructor might bring a whole bunch of drum talent with him to your favorite corps. And you have a problem with that?

Strange.

I would have a problem with a former Crown member potentially taking a spot away from a current Scouts marching member. It's not all about the scores you know.
