you are assuming the young man in the IG post is providing an accurate account of the conversation,

true. but after the DCA coffee pot debacle in Williamsport, i can tell you the message i got clarifying where the fault was supposed to go could have been nicer. i was happy to stop making fun of Box5 for it, but there was no need to be an ########.

 

i'd watch more BOA, but the pricing is insane. Grand Nats weekend is almost half an entire year's subscription to Flo getting me DCI, WGI, and access to Flo's other stuff. Luckily for him BOA specializes in huge bands which means tons of parents willing to pay.

I've successfully worked with a school district to fight Tresona's BS, so I do have some experience with copyright trolls. We specifically claimed Fair Use and Tresona caved the moment we pushed back. Tim's claims and threats are no different.

And I imagine you will have more success working with school districts than with random podcasters.

What would you get for that money, though?

(Sincere question - because from the websites, I cannot tell whether they provide live, on-demand, downloads, or some combination of the three.)

Wait…are you suggesting TS is a jagoff? That would be shocking. 

Someone from Western PA? Haven’t heard that “term” in a long time. Grew up in Pittsburgh before moving to Arizona.

Erie here. Lived in Pittsburgh for a few years. But yes I still got the lingo haha

It's a Chicago thing too, along with its delightful hybrid cousin, "Jagbag."

I paid for Grand Nationals Finals this year. My only option was to watch it live with no rebroadcast.

I am head over heels in love with this response:

Is this the same Tim Snyder that punched that security guard in 2016?? 🥴

Here's guessing Funliner has done more to excite a younger generation about drum corps and marching band than Tim Snyder could ever dream of. Perhaps Snyder could have a legal argument, but fundamentally, I don't think it's in his best interest to pursue something like this.
