I will fully admit he knows marimba better than I ever will, but you make my point for me again and don't even realize it. What a surprise.....😎 Edited May 20, 2020 by Mello Dude 2 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Think Broadway play, or Academy Awards. They're supposed to enhance the show, not BE the show. and they aren't THE show. They are PART of the show.

DFA1970 Posted May 20, 2020 Share Posted May 20, 2020 You know that we are angry when this topic has 8 pages of what....pits. This point in the season the brand new start of drum-corp 2020. But there is none in 2020. So the next topic is War on Color Guard....to much color in the guard? So what the H E double hockey sticks to we do? I really wish there was an online library of drum corp shows of the past we can watch over the summer of any decade. All we have us YouTube. Oh well.

dans Posted May 20, 2020 Share Posted May 20, 2020 Whether you agree or not with the OP, he does have a right to his opinion. It's challenging to have a meaningful exchange of ideas when the insults start. Some on this site (with the strongest opinions) are the first to hurl insults when they don't agree with others. This site would probably get more participants if we didn't have to deal with insults about your views and/or opinions. OK...back to isolation! 3 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
