Camp reports


Recommended Posts

Bluecoats are doing a camp this weekend but knowing Bloo, the members probably don’t even know much about the show yet.

Camp report from the 80s

While in college in the 80s, this story floated around for years from a local corps audition in November.

After a high school drummer completed his "rough" snare auditions:

HS Student:  "Back home they call me sticks." 

Caption Head:  "Well, around here, we'll call you plates."  (i.e., cymbals) 

Not sure how true the events played out, but knowing the caption head, it sounds like his personality.  Of course, we did drink a lot in college...

I heard this exact story from Scott Brown at a Spirit camp over at WGC back in '86 or '87 lol

Yup; that would be the time frame.  Early to mid 80s?  Notice the blue text?  :whistle:   

I swear it wasn't me though (the HS student) lol. I did get a lot of "moving just your toes is not the same as marking time" comments though lol.
