MikeD Posted January 28, 2012 Share Posted January 28, 2012 I am not bashing by any means, but I had some friends very close to me audition for crown, and they said that they didn't like it. So Im going to take their word for it. And yes Mr Boo was correct, I do live in Columbia, SC. I contacted crossmen and teal, I am currently waiting for replies. I sent troopers videos, but they said heavy guys like me would get hurt so they turned me away. It's not looking good right now, but this is only a small part of the battle. Thanks for all of your suggestions guys. (and the occasional gal) How about the Atlanta CV or Carolina Gold, both DCA corps? DCA 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Piper Posted January 28, 2012 Share Posted January 28, 2012 (edited) Sometimes you're the chicken and sometimes you're the egg. You'll see vets at auditions who you might think are the boss rooster in the barnyard, but don't take that the wrong way or let it intimidate you. They just have more self-confidence because they've been there before. I never saw a chicken in my life that wasn't hatched from an egg.

JimF-LowBari Posted January 28, 2012 Share Posted January 28, 2012 How about the Atlanta CV or Carolina Gold, both DCA corps? DCA LOL, I was thinking Carolina Gold or Sun Devils (forget where they are in FL). TOTALLY forgot about the GA corps.... (don't tell JohnZ).

Huh...tell me whut? Mike forgot Alliance too. Lots of junior and all age options to choose from, and as far as the traveling, there are LOTS of folks going all different directions around here headed for a drum corps somewhere. so opportunities for carpooling. And airfares are very affordable out of the four SC airports and especially out of the Charlotte hub. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DCA IF your 16 and were cut by Spirit then maybe a all age corps is a good choice to get some experience and more knowledge. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NewTuba2011 Posted January 28, 2012 Author Share Posted January 28, 2012 I'm most likely going to condition harder and longer, and wait until late April to ask for spots. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Piper Posted January 28, 2012 Share Posted January 28, 2012 (edited) What ever else you do don't cut yourself. Too many kids have done that over the years and it's heartbreaking. I knew a lieutenant fresh out of West Point at one time who had a CO that hated him, then the CO was transferred and the new CO loved him. You never know.

whitedawn Posted January 28, 2012 Share Posted January 28, 2012 There's no such thing as being "cut" in the winter. Just keep going to rehearsal. Serious. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
