I don't think there can be too much noise from a drum corps, aside from electronic amplification of course 🙂 They live by a school, for crying out loud.  It’s like the maroons who live here who complain about living by Wrigley field or O’Hare.  What, you mean you didn’t know that fans go to games or planes fly out of the airport? 1 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I liked that the reporter came armed with a decibel meter. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Brian Tuma Posted June 2, 2019 Share Posted June 2, 2019 I think Blue Stars should post some long audio clips so we can determine for ourselves whether they’re too loud. Lol 1 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

brians Posted June 3, 2019 Share Posted June 3, 2019 (edited) Great music selections, should be interesting to see what segments of these pieces they select and how they weave them together. with an extremely veteran & old (age wise) corps this year along with staff stability, should be a good year. I cant wait to hear the horns. I am hearing good things about them. The corps is poised to make a push above the 8 slot. Edited June 4, 2019 by brians 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Although there’s a myth about hearing the corn grow on a hot July day. That might even be too loud for Barb. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tedrick Posted June 3, 2019 Share Posted June 3, 2019 This story is a real-life example of Iowa Stubborn from Music Man - Oh, there's nothing halfway About the Iowa way to treat you, When we treat you Which we may not do at all. lyrics: http://www.metrolyrics.com/iowa-stubborn-lyrics-music-man.html  And the obvious question that wasn't asked was how much MONEY do the Blue Stars pay the college to use their facilities. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
