No arranging or even marching experience mentioned (in terms of drum corps), yet already an accomplished jazz composer/arranger. EDIT: Upon further research, he did write for a SoundSport group (Rogues Hollow Regiment) this past summer. This is the most fascinating hire of this offseason. The variability in age of this staff is incredible. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

On one hand experience and exposure to many programs; OTOH perhaps new ideas, new approaches, different creativity 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Madcityscout Posted September 19, 2018 Share Posted September 19, 2018 I see it as a plus. I aged out with Scott Boerma and within a yeR or two he was doing the arranging. If I remember correctly he was so good st a young age, he was making suggestions and marching in the line. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tesmusic Posted September 19, 2018 Share Posted September 19, 2018 I'm going to be optimistic, as usual on this one. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BRASSO Posted September 19, 2018 Share Posted September 19, 2018 It'll also be interesting to see that in a quest to return to Top 12 Status, the Madison Scouts decide to go back to becoming an All Male Drum Corps again or not. So far, there has been no announcement on what the make up of the Corps will be. However, the staff they have announced for 2019 has me thinking they will return to an All Male Drum Corps for 2019.

They had ONE female this year. 149 males...1 female in 2018. Not really a big stretch to go back to all-male in 2019. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I remember reading something from Board President Greg Auby that any talk/plans of going coed would be shelved until after the 2019 season.
