torn8o Posted September 6, 2005 Share Posted September 6, 2005 (edited) I'm curious with the whining about the drumspeak...If there was an Internet in 1984, would you all have crucified VK's drum line for their 32 count intro to their drum solo that year?

Brassop Posted September 6, 2005 Share Posted September 6, 2005 These hypothetical musings used to go something like: " Yah right. Trumpets in drum & BUGLE corps?! That'll be the day" " Dude are you on crack?! This is drum corps! They'd never allow amplifiers". " Relax. The 2 dancers are just a compliment to the guard. " " Woodwinds would mean the demise of drum corps. DCI won't let that happen" Folks, expect a DCI name change soon. They know it's no longer drum corps as do the former droves who no longer attend shows. Oh the days when whole crowds would ... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TommySopranoContra Posted September 6, 2005 Share Posted September 6, 2005 Yo... no fighting! :) Drumspeaks are okay, 2003 Blue Devils did it, this time it was just louder cus it was amped.
