Michael Boo Posted August 1, 2012 Share Posted August 1, 2012 All of this just because of Mike Boo. You have arrived sir, you have been the target of DCP drama Are you sure you want your new daughter to have someone so prone to controversy as an honorary uncle? She'll have enough drama in her life just growing up around drum corps. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Michael Boo Posted August 1, 2012 Share Posted August 1, 2012 Mr. Boo - it does not mean you don't need to take out your garbage cans. It may mean you should be locked in a glass case for permanent display, though. With a nice Camembert. And an air supply? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Michael Boo Posted August 1, 2012 Share Posted August 1, 2012 I’m pretty sure Boo ate my baby Now, Cow...you know I'm a vegetarian! The closest thing I've done to anything like that was kicking a litter of puppies over a goalpost, just to see how far they would fly. Oh...and that thing with the spray paint and the nuns.

Michael Boo Posted August 1, 2012 Share Posted August 1, 2012 M. Boo has his opinions, and your reasons for objecting to Mr. Boo's writings are not clear to me, as Mr. Boo has long been a strong, vocal advocate for the activity as it has become. In contrast, I and a handful of others like to write about things that Mr. Boo contradicts, things like the accelerating deterioration of the activity, the shrinking of its numbers of participants, the weakening of its crowd appeal, its New Elitism and resultant exclusion of non-entitled youth, its overpriced staffers and equipment, its pack-mentality and its many yes-men who have managed by their silence to allow the few to dictate the activity's direction, which I see as a nonreversible death spiral at this point, should nothing change. And you should continue to write about you are passionate about, as I will continue to agree or disagree when I feel it is appropriate to do so. We have a civil understanding that not everyone will see our own opinions in the same light. And we both know why...because we are individuals. But we both love drum corps and that unites us. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

N.E. Brigand Posted August 1, 2012 Share Posted August 1, 2012 ...if anything I think one could argue that his blog is more vanilla than anything else: it doesn't criticize, it seems to go out of its way to NOT be biased for/against any corps... In fact, I seem to remember someone (Bruckner8 ?) last year commenting that MB writes from a rose-colored "Boo-world". Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jeff Ream Posted August 1, 2012 Share Posted August 1, 2012 Mike, I know you will not be blogging this weekend. So, to continue your newfound penchant for controversy, you have to pull something at Allentown that creates a stir Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
