I guess I spend too much time in the wood shop these days. Though it looks like something we would have created on our Amiga Video Toasters in 1991, it's still pretty #### cool. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not sure how long you have been following drum corps or Cadets, but financial issues have long plagued Cadets, beginning back in the days when the corps moved from Garfield to Bergen County. Cadets were not alone, and more than a few corps are lucky to have survived. I’m not sure I recall accusations of illegal mismanagement of funds, but accusations of poor management of funds goes back quite a few years. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This software has been around for several years at least. On the right side of this video there was another one from music by a couple of bands. Wish the program designers could improve what the guard can do with equipment. It's missing a lot when the flags only spin in one direction. This other video could have more involvement with the guard since they were missing at times. But, I wouldn't know how to begin creating something like this or how difficult it is. Has to be time consuming. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Every, single corps, bar two I'd bet, is just one bad catastrophe away from collapse. Ask any one of them - they're used to it and it scares them to death every, single year. Just look at the financials and find the "war chests" built up. You might find one at two current corps. Three, tops. And it's been this way for years. They have to spend every, single penny just to stay in the game. I'm only now beginning to notice financials with positive net worth increasing a few hundred or thousand dollars per year. - pitiful for orgs running million-dollar budgets. There are a few corps that have very sizable foundations but, mostly, the activity runs hand-to-mouth each year. It's easy to look back and point fingers but the reality is that not TwoValves nor anyone else has enough fingers. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
