With the talent that shows up in drum corps these days, and the sheer amount of practice, you should be able to learn 6-8 minutes of playing. If you can't your instruction is failing you. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

xandandl Posted September 28, 2019 Share Posted September 28, 2019 hope the large bands are able to avoid the rain predicted for tonight in DeKalb during Regiment's big fundraiser competition. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think they’ll be ok for tonight. I’m 28 miles east of Dekalb and it’s dry but very dreary and cool. I’d go to support the corps but there’s no way this one guy here will leave with this game tonight. 🙄🏈 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Football comes after Drum Corps. is anyone else watching the Global Citizen concert? Watching that talent on the stage and in the audience gives me hope.

Weaklefthand4ever Posted September 29, 2019 Share Posted September 29, 2019 First week of marching band competitions started a few weeks ago and yesterday were the first big shows. I didn't see much in the way of recruiting here in TN / GA for DCI or DCA but I did hang with some of my fellow alumni who's youngest children are about to graduate. Odd how people wearing corps jackets (in the middle of summer) somehow all congregate towards the same spot...much like cattle. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kdaddy Posted October 3, 2019 Share Posted October 3, 2019 I really like Courtney's energy. I feel like her role as corps movement co-caption head with Bob Smith as marching co-caption head (how I interpret their roles) is a great fit relative to her choreography role last year.

I think Courtney is ready to move the activity forward. She’s an amazing talent with tons of potential to change drum corps. Go Courtney, we’re with you!!!!!!

I'm so glad to see he's coming back along with so many great people! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
