Been listening to less drum corps lately and It's not right to take it out on the kids. They need us to hang in there. See you on the Fifty.

Don't let some bad seeds ruin it for you The apologists are lost souls IMO - if they'd step back and look at the big picture and longer view they'd understand better and take a more responsible approach For me this situation isn't going to be fixed with a few "Tweaks" -- wholesale changes and many tough decisions - plus some terminations and prosecutions - probably organization changes etc... ANYTHING and EVERYTHING should be on the table if long term it means a better and safer activity for the members. Get it as close to "perfect" as we get our drill sets. Which is pretty darn perfect. Drum corps should work as hard at THIS as it's ever worked at ANYTHING 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
