BlueStainGlass Posted June 6, 2015 Share Posted June 6, 2015 Two updates from the Troopers camp: First, it sounds like there will definitely be some kind of props in the show this year. They were asking for volunteers to drive a box truck for props this summer. Second, this nice shot from the beginning of rehearsal this morning: plot twist- itsnot a prop truck its a horse trailer. the horses are the props Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DrumManTx Posted June 6, 2015 Share Posted June 6, 2015 Do we have to bring our own shovels? Just get some extended snare drum scoops. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
xandandl Posted June 6, 2015 Share Posted June 6, 2015 Just get some extended snare drum scoops. These two pictured are headed in the wrong direction. Long Island and the Belmont today are the other way. But of course, DCI has already seen Triple Crown. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

2muchcoffeeman Posted June 11, 2015 Author Share Posted June 11, 2015 (edited) Just wanted to point out that, at this moment of this hour -- 11 a.m., June 11 -- the Troopers are assembled in formation, facing Casper, and playing the "Battle Hymn" chorale in memory of Jim Jones, who was buried on this day in 1994. And that is why I love drum corps so much. Edited June 11, 2015 by 2muchcoffeeman 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TroopAlum12 Posted June 11, 2015 Share Posted June 11, 2015 Just wanted to point out that, at this moment of this hour, the Troopers are assembled in formation, facing Casper, and playing the "Battle Hymn" chorale in memory of Jim Jones, who was buried on this day in 1994. And that is why I love drum corps so much. This was always one of my favorite moments of all days. I still get a little emotional every time I hear a recording of battle hymn.
