I used to love drum corps, but the amplification and electronics have ruined it for me.

Well... without electronics at drum corps venues, it would have been tough for me to do my job the past 35 years!!! :tongue:

I miss the very precise guard work of yesteryear.  Sure it was simple but Accurate!  I love the complex music they play now days until they try to arrange some stupid rock tune or play Jingle Bells FFS.  I miss Ratamacues.

I like it, so I still pay to watch it.

 

when I stop liking it, I'll stop paying to watch it.

I love it (not) when someone thinks they get to define "their taste" as "good taste" and other's taste as "horrible taste"

Guess what? The world doesn't work that way!

Taste is subjective.  

I enjoy going to the Art Institute of Chicago.   I appreciate most of the exhibits but one time on a visit, there was an exhibit of photos taken while on horseback.  It looked like a bunch of blurry pictures to me but I’m sure someone loved it.
