Although their generation may well include a lot of self-entitled, lazy, snowflakes, NONE of those kids are in drum corps. These kids are every bit as tough and hardworking as the kids who marched 20, 30 and 50 years ago. Whether they are marching for Boston, Cadets, Crown, Blue Stars or anyone else, they have my complete respect. Thank you Craiga - well said! The members are not driving the activity - the designers are -- I agree that the art form needs to continually evolve - my hope is that the quality of the musical production does not suffer at the expense of visual innovations. My hope is that designers are not designing out musical excellence in order to expand the visual, dance side -- We have enjoyed some extremely entertaining shows over the years - if the music is supplanted with pre recorded electronics and if the main emphasis is placed on dance and visual/drill, we should start to raise the concern that although the new costumes are designed from the finest, lightest, most magnificent cloth the world has ever seen - at the end of the day, The Emperor Has No Clothes. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
