91FSU08 Posted July 23, 2014 Share Posted July 23, 2014 I know...I know..."Back in MY day, we had to wait three freaking WEEKS to find out scores."...but I sure do hate having to wait. LOL!! That's what made everyone want to buy Drum Corps World back in the day, or we would beg our director to call the Pesceone's for the latest scores! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
2000Cadet Posted July 23, 2014 Share Posted July 23, 2014 Yeah...when ever we could get out hands on a copy of Drum Corps World. With all due respect, how long ago was this? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

wesleyrp Posted July 23, 2014 Share Posted July 23, 2014 Before internet. Hard for people of the 2000s era to comprehend but we didn't have smart phones or computers on tour.... Our entertainment was tapes/CDs coloring books etc.... Pay phones/collect calls/phone cards- that was technology 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tony Flores Posted July 23, 2014 Share Posted July 23, 2014 With all due respect, how long ago was this? When I marched in the mid 90's. We didn't have cell phones on tour...barely had a flip phone is we could afford it. Drum Corps World was or only source for scores. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
George Dixon Posted July 23, 2014 Share Posted July 23, 2014 in other words - before 1994 we'd call a scoreline or wait for DCW Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
oldbandguy Posted July 23, 2014 Share Posted July 23, 2014 With all due respect, how long ago was this? Back when we could pop in the latest drum corps recordings into our 8 track players and drive around the Big Boy drive-thru annoying the Bay City Roller fans 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
