GUARDLING Posted November 30, 2018 Share Posted November 30, 2018 Just now, MikeD said: Hopefully there will be some info about this discussed at the Cadet alumni holiday party this weekend. I think right now they are floating a trial balloon to get a feel on the interest in fielding such a one-and-done group. I think you're right Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you keep going, the egos get way out of control. That’s what happened at Royal-Airs. The first year was great. The second year, not that great. I was done after year two.

We had seats way up in the third level of the Forum that night... and PCP's horn line sounded like it was five feet in front of us. To date, that is the loudest alumni-corps horn line, and easily one of the loudest lines at any level, that I have ever heard. Talk about bringing the heat. Wow. We were in the hallway taking a stretch break and sounded like we were back inside. Got to enjoy their shows more we saw them but that year they could have not turned the volume to 11. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In their current state, if it's not helping them, such as USBands, or keeping going to keep community ties and financial benefits like Xcape, it had to go. CWG and CWP were less about finances and more about personnel and other issues including perceived lack of success ( aka the guard). Bookends of the 2014 Copland snare line were both C2 alum. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LOL Lol now I remember there were two security guards in the hallway near us and we heard... "Holy #### they're even loud out here". There was good music in there but the volume just overloaded the ears. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not enough to derail them. Park City's now gone... but I'm guessing that might have been a case of "it's run its course... time to move on." 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Right after I left there was a change in business manager (RIP Tom K) but from emails I get and vids I see they are still strong and getting ready for the century celebration in 2020.

pbeau Posted November 30, 2018 Share Posted November 30, 2018 BAC Senior still going strong after 26 years. For obvious reasons they will skip the "27th" and go straight to 28! 2 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
