His son is also (or was)on their percussion staff. I was just thinking during finals week 6th place and a terrific show they are heading back in the thick of things again. Stability is key.

I can think of a more effective way. But ..."been there done that" as the kids say. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Also some looooong term volunteers are upset about Denise's handling of the situation. What in the world is going on with Cadets, Cavaliers, BK, Phantom, Mandarins, Crown, and whoever else? It's just crazy how much drama circles these corps this year. Big kudos to Boston, Bluecoats, Blue Stars, Colts, and Blue Devils for staying out of this nonsense. Seriously... 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Placing my bets on at least one of the lower placing corps sweeping up staff like Tom Hannum or Matt Hartwell and making a big jump in that respective caption. I heard Hartwell was at BD, but I can’t imagine he’d stay as a tech compared to where he used to be. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ok but to be fair, it’s easy to keep all your staff happy when you’ve had a successful season… Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jjeffeory Posted September 15, 2022 Share Posted September 15, 2022 Just now, crownisking said: Ok but to be fair, it’s easy to keep all your staff happy when you’ve had a successful season… I guess we should all decide on what constitutes a successful season. Crown, Cadets, and Phantom Regiment just had good competitive success. I understand that Crown isn't happy in 4th, but jeesh, the last corps to be unhappy getting 4th was the Cavaliers and where are they now? 4th ain't bad. Cadets just jumped back into the top 6 and Phantom Regiment just broke 90 for the first time since 2015 at finals. Heck, SCV is having drama and they placed a very respectable 5th, which should be decently successful the first year after covid. The corps that weren't very "successful" this year were basically BK, Cavaliers, and Crossmen. BK looks to have upgraded. Anyway, too much drama.

mcjordansc Posted September 15, 2022 Share Posted September 15, 2022 Blue Stars have made plenty of staff changes over the years but they have kept Shapiro for what, 15 years? And when they make changes they seem to do it with one caption only, like percussion this year. That leads to great stability. Corps at the top like Blue Devils and Bluecoats found their team and have built around them. Very little change. Boston appears to be going down that road. No doubt a consistent design and instructional staff over years is great for any organization. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
