sburstall Posted July 22, 2005 Share Posted July 22, 2005 After seeing the Cadets' show for 4 of the past 5 nights, I've been wondering why they don't get slapped with a penalty when the guy who is "beatboxing" clearly steps over the 10-foot line in front of the pit? Would anyone care to enlighten me on this one? <{POST_SNAPBACK}> The checks cleared.... ^0^ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AggiePhil Posted July 22, 2005 Share Posted July 22, 2005 What, exactly, are you insinuating? <{POST_SNAPBACK}> Probably that penalties are being given now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jeff Ream Posted July 22, 2005 Share Posted July 22, 2005 well on the plus side, no amps have blown up yet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ddoy42 Posted July 22, 2005 Share Posted July 22, 2005 Nah, just get rid of the mics, then you won't need stands. <{POST_SNAPBACK}> You're asking the wrong guy to do that. Wasn't it Mr. Hopkins' bright idea to bring amps, microphones, clarinets, flutes, violins, and elephants into drum corps? <**> Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hopkins championed the cause however and that is probably the only reason why there are amps in drum corps today. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tommytimp Posted July 23, 2005 Share Posted July 23, 2005 We used mikes, amps, Simmons pads and sound at the beginning of 1986. We took the voluntary penalty (2 points, I believe) for every show the first two weekends, then DCM (not DCI) told us that they would start exercising their option to DQ us for every show, at the pleasure of the contest director, seeing as how we were, indeed, breaking the rules. So we scrapped the electronics (which were more to get publicity for the Knights than anything else anyway) and our drumline kicked ### anyway. Hey, kid. Get back in the pit! That's what the line is for! You're costing the Cadets points! Maybe! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
