wonker Posted October 7, 2016 Share Posted October 7, 2016 I see now, I was overthinking. But in response to the Cadets, I think a lot of the fallout came as much, if not more, because of the admin always preaching their traditions, and then what was perceived as a slap in the face to tradition. ....and I think that is what Boston is trying to gauge by putting out this survey. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
xandandl Posted October 7, 2016 Share Posted October 7, 2016 When I win the Amazon gift cards, do I have to donate one of them back to BAC or just spend them at the BAC souvenir table? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Liahona Posted October 7, 2016 Share Posted October 7, 2016 (edited) When I win the Amazon gift cards, do I have to donate one of them back to BAC or just spend them at the BAC souvenir table? I felt bad that when I won some football promotion they were running and got a check in the mail...the winning prize was as much as my donation...but I just made an anonymous donation to the fuel fund this summer...not so anonymous now I guess...haha Edited October 7, 2016 by Liahona 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
quietcity Posted October 7, 2016 Share Posted October 7, 2016 The use of a survey to make artistic decisions is a bit alarming. I appreciate that BC is concerned about their tradition and such, but if they want to make artistic changes, by God, just make them and then sell the hell out of them. Market surveys are for politicians and shampoo, not artists. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DrumManTx Posted October 7, 2016 Share Posted October 7, 2016 I'd love to see the results of this, I found it pretty interesting and really made me think about what I like in a uniform. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DawsonBurnes Posted October 7, 2016 Share Posted October 7, 2016 Boston is the third-oldest junior drum and bugle corps in the nation while the cadets are respectfully 2nd Wouldn't Boston actually be fourth? 1. Racine Scouts- Founded 1927 2. Cadets- Founded 1934 3. Madison Scouts- Founded 1938 4. BAC- Founded 1940 Not trying to be rude, just wanted to point that out. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DawsonBurnes Posted October 7, 2016 Share Posted October 7, 2016 Have any other corps done something like this? I'm a bit more used to it now, but Phantom's uniform this past year was a bit... weird. I don't know if Phantom has any input of the FJM uniform designs though Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Until they come back, perhaps they shouldn't be on the list anymore. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
