And even better yet, if she took a career position in the Boston area, she could even perform with the Boston Crusaders Sr's too if she wanted too. But the good news here is that she does not have to make such decisions yet as she will be returning to participate in her age out season with the 2018 Boston Crusaders Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Her DCI career will be over. Someday, perhaps more than four or five ageouts will actually know about DCA. LOL. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Boy, would Ed Denon have had fun with this BITD. I'm always impressed when I read on DCP how various mm have switched to a completely different instrument in order to march D&BC. Well done to them all. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well done to them all. Yes, many do seem to be very versatile in their abilities, no question about it. As for former BAC Brass Instructor Ed Denon. Knowing him as well as I did, I suspect he'd have some preferences for what he'd want in Drum Corps if he was still with us, but ( as you know too ) Ed Denon was a perfectionist, and always appreciated kids that worked their butts off, and so he'd have given this young Lady ( and BAC 2017 ) a big thumbs up, imo. I have little doubt about this either. Edited August 21, 2017 by BRASSO Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MikeN Posted August 21, 2017 Share Posted August 21, 2017 The first time I saw Boston this season was Semifinals on Flo. I had completely avoided them up to that point. I've watched DCI for 28 years, and have rarely been as surprised as I was by them. Absolutely incredible program. It had a steady stream of "did you see that?" moments that only a couple of other corps could match, and the finale was absolutely epic. Even my wife, who gratefully stopped watching corps once my kids were old enough to fill in, was blown away by that show. I absolutely cannot wait to see what they come up with for 2018.
