Rockmart, GA - July 16, 2005

[Percussion827]

Since people are wondering numbers at Rockmart, here's the take from a guy who was there (look at sig. for reasoning as to why I know)

Shenandoah had:

5 Sopranos

1 Mellophone

1 Baritone

1 Snare

1 Tenor

3 Bass

3 Pit

and 1 guard

We kept losing members due to jobs and health. The Drumline could have had 3 Snares, 2 Tenor(I was the tenor this past sat.), 4 Bass and about 4 pit. Hornline (if we didn't lose so many people to jobs and moving) could've been 6 Sops, 3 Mellophones, 3 Baritones, like 2 Contras. Plus we could've had about 5 guard. But, as I said, we kept losing people due to jobs and fallout from that.

Btw, to the guy who thinks we should do "mini-corps". We've been out on the field as a competition corps for 2 years and have been around for a lot longer (they were doing mini-corps during the late 90's). We are doing our thing and frankly, it makes things a little bit more interesting in Class "A" if you think about it. Btw, to any CorpsVets who see this. Nice job on Saturday.

Keep up the hard work.I don't think people realize how hard it is to go out on the field with only 7 or so horns and play a full 11+ min show.

That means all 7 horns have to play the entire time.No laying out,,no nothing.

See you guys in Scranton.

Hmmm....I guess everybody forgot we were there. :( Was a great show and I hope we get a chance to come back to Rockmart in the future. Going on 4th kind of killed any chance of seeing any of the other corps perform. We did get to see some of Alliance's show from the endzone as we were waiting to go on and from there it looked and sounded really good. Thanks for hosting a great event CorpsVets!!
