Then don’t. Others might but you don’t have to. Others may be only recognizing his music. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
troopers1 Posted May 25, 2020 Share Posted May 25, 2020 I took my girlfriend to DATR Denver in 1997. It had been 10 years since she'd been to a DCI show, and she was pretty polite as the evening went on. Then Scouts did their closer. She leaped out of her chair and said "Now THAT's an f'ing drum corps!" 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dood wasn't celebrating his birthday. He was just trying to make a funny. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DFA1970 Posted May 25, 2020 Share Posted May 25, 2020 What I fondly remember was how SCV just made a great season ending show. I saw then and BD early in CA and they were a good 8 points behind. The opener On the Waterfront was a drill and music heaven. I really liked the Cadets with that crazy drill. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
