MikeN Posted January 3, 2020 Share Posted January 3, 2020 I’d say yes to eliminating sideline open mics and adding decibel limits as well as live sampling. I’d say <shrug> to Guard sheet changes. Not my specialty. I’d say no to task force redesign - it would eliminate Open Corps’ voice. I’d say heck no to scoring changes and woodwinds. -Mike 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Didn’t Hop propose it multiple times? It always gets voted down. Hopefully it does again here. As for the others, seeing amplification limits being proposed is heartening. New DCI rules have been out of control for a while now. Sometimes limitations are good. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post 2muchcoffeeman Posted January 3, 2020 Popular Post Share Posted January 3, 2020 I get the aspiration to make the benefits available to as many young people as possible. I don't doubt the sincerity of the aim. But way to maximize the benefits isn't to eliminate the characteristics that distinguish the one thing from all other things. It's to make many different things. Summer string camps. Chamber orchestras. Youth symphonies. Jazz combos. Chorale. Fiddlin' competitions. Bluegrass camps. Piano competitions. Drum and bugle corps. I've said it before: When you put all the ingredients in the kitchen into a single pot, every item on the menu tastes the same. The way to expand the "life-enriching benefits" to more young people is to put more items on the menu, not use a bigger pot. 9 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
