 Boston is expanding their audition locations this season, and its quite impressive. In addition to including Video submission tryouts formats for consideration, Boston will hold on site auditions this off season in Boston, San Antonio, Tampa, Los Angeles, Indianapolis, and Dallas.

We will be in the Tampa area during the auditions.  Excellent.  We’ll stop by for a couple of hours.

Boston Crusaders has as a goal recruiting more local marching members which I think is great, and Troopers coming to Boston is a good idea. I think the New England area is overlooked but has lots of talent. While Boston Crusaders recruits nationally, Spartans and 7th Regiment are both strong, largely local, and the two corps show there is interest in drum corps. I do know some believe the band activity is not as strong in New England as in other parts of the country, though there are some excellent high school marching bands and an active local circuit, not to mention some that compete in USBands. Of course music education is more than a marching program, and there are some excellent music programs in the Boston area even though they do not have competitive matching bands. Finally, there are many great colleges in New England not to mention Berklee and the New England Conservatory. While I do run into kids who march and go to college in Boston, there has to be lots of potential candidates.

I wouldn't read too much into this.  There is a former BD member/BAC staff member who teaches at a college music program in Boston who is currently on Troopers brass staff.  He is a good guy and I'm sure he is probably the person who set this up.  Good for Troop!

  When good and talented people like, trust, and respect one another and work well together in an organization,  the sky is the limit for such organizations in terms of what they can achieve.

Especially when lots of wine is involved.
