BRASSO Posted August 18, 2012 Share Posted August 18, 2012 (edited) How many Golden Age pioneers are honored in the Hall of Fame, especially from the 1915-1955 formative years of the All-American Drum and Bugle Corps and Band Association and the National Association? Aprox. 23. You can go onto their website to see the names. If you ( or others ) want to nominate someone yourself, there is an explanation of the nomination process there.

Popular Post Granny Smith Posted August 18, 2012 Popular Post Share Posted August 18, 2012 Yay George! You know I love you with your golden locks blowing in the hot summer night as you pace the front sidelines! I haven't gotten a chance to say thank you this year for such an entertaining and well performed show. You catch a lot of heat sometimes, but the past several years have been absolutely wonderful drum corps shows. Last year's (2011) show made me actually wet myself (not a full-out drench the front of my skirt mind you, but just a little dribble) and was one of my all time favorite shows. Our relationship is like the one I had with my first husband. Even though he pulled a lot of crap and we had some serious disagreements, I still loved the cranky 'ole S.O.B. He had this really sweet, passionate side to him that was sometimes lost in his quest to be the best. Thanks George for your contribution to drum corps and for giving us so many thrilling moments. P.S. Now that your bust is in the hall of fame (do they do that in drum corps?)...don't go pulling any stupid stunts with our activity that causes me to grab you by the back of the neck and shove my cane where it don't belong (hint hint). 10 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

garfield Posted August 18, 2012 Share Posted August 18, 2012 Thanks George for over 30 years of wonderful leadership with the Cadets and everything else you have done along the way. I'll agree with this as corrected above. The rest of it? Meh. Not so much. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SFZFAN Posted August 19, 2012 Share Posted August 19, 2012 Thanks George for over 30 years of wonderful leadership with the Cadets and everything else you have done along the way. He truly deserves to be in there in spite of the 2005, 2006, and 2007 debacles. Like him or not - he's arguably the most successful director ever. And he didn't do the "Yowsa" show 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
