You can read my review on amazon.com under new and associates. But to some it up... I think the book is a great narrative of drumcorps with tidbits of nostalgia and a warm fuzzy feeling that only drum corps can generate for a junkie like myself. Highly reccomend the book.

I got the book for Christmas last year. It was an entertaining read. Funny how much is similar from corps to corps. The tour stories were great. :P I highly recommend it.

I was gonna post something, but I'll just quote you, since it's exactly the same story. :P

I'm just lookin' for a few book reviews before I shell out the cash. Has anyone on here read "On the field from Denver, Colorado ... The Blue Knights!" by Gregory M. Kuzma? Opinions?

Its a good read. Well written and very recognizable for someone who marching. I marched around the same time and it brought back memories I had totally forgotten about

Greg did a great job with the book! It shows a very interesting side of drum corps, especially to those who are fans but have never marched.

Plus there is a picture of me in it......... who wouldn't want that!?!?!?!? b**bs

NIce read. I read it on tour in 2005. Don't know why, since I was living the book, so to say. But it was kind of cool to compare it with drum corps of today. Soap to line wet fields? Never would have guessed.

Hey Larry, it was good seeing you on tour this summer!

It's been really cool meeting people who have read the book. I've caught myself reading a few pages this summer to compare where drum corps is in general today compared to 13 years ago...some things never change!

See you at the show tonight!
