I mean... a country governed by its own people through democratically represented representatives...?!? That was crazy talk 250 years ago, yet here we are! Also, I mean, c'mon... look at our DRUM CORPS!! :-) lol exactly Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But personally, I don't really mind what they look like because I know that behind whatever show they do, those guys are definitely learning how to be quality members of society. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
palmettomello Posted February 13, 2018 Share Posted February 13, 2018 One of my friends is in New Orleans for Mardi Gras and was posting snapchats of the Parade. They don't know anything about the marching arts, but they ended up catching the Madison Scouts alumni corps. I immediately recognized the classic Scout's uniforms of the late 90's. That would be a fun trip for adults and always great publicity for drum corps! Don't think we will be seeing the men of Madison wearing anything close to those iconic uniforms anymore, but definitely interested to see what they field this summer. http://www.madisonscouts.org/2018/02/scouts-alumni-march-krewe-orpheus-mardi-gras-parade/ 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ghost Posted February 13, 2018 Share Posted February 13, 2018 (edited) Around 1:25:30 for a nice cheer by the brass! Oh well. Boston didn't play for LBJ in 65. DM's need a heads up sometimes. Edited February 13, 2018 by Ghost fix Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe they borrowed the drums from a local school? They aren't Pearl. Also they were borrowed drums, not from the corps. The corps is still with Yamaha, as the MSARP is not under the corps umbrella, as the Macy's group was. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't know why on earth they would use those pancake snares though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
