Lets hope the corps bus does not break down on side the road ,,, heaven forbid what type of trash they will take for that nonsense. Bring on more jump suits. Treated like God's -???? ok sure. PIW class finals lots look something like this ... and that shot is for SNARE SECTIONALS. Teens in the activity eat this stuff up. They follow the social media accounts of the individual players and fan-boy / fan-girl like crazy. WGI Famous. If a staff member stopped and said "who can help us push a concert bass drum onto the court tonight?" there would be a melee. The kids whoop and holler when these groups wrap up 8 on a hand. It's crazy. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lots of very small "universes " of all sorts are out there on this earth, each with their own " God " like treatrment" from its very small fan base.

While in the realm of wearing those costumes, they are adored. I'm not debating the merits of said universe.

Fair enough... its acknowledged that many people in the much ,much larger " universe " chuckle out loud at the Mummer Bands attire, music and instruments, but that within its very tiny universe of fans, the Mummers Bands are " treated like Gods ".

Ghost Posted May 2, 2017 Share Posted May 2, 2017 1 hour ago, BRASSO said: Heck, a H.S. Diploma or a GED and a flair for applying make up in an effective manner in a group setting should suffice for a future paid position in Corps in such a future staff capacity, imo. If this becomes a postion a corps needs filled, I imagine they could go the "intern" route like many corps do with the video positions. Working with a corps during Winter camps and then the season from start of ST to Finals would give a couple of future career make up artists a great learning opportunity.

xandandl Posted May 2, 2017 Share Posted May 2, 2017 (edited) Given the "tea party" near the Hahbah on 6/15, might we see an inkling of the new "costumes" (based on these?) Edited May 2, 2017 by xandandl Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
