Phirefenix Posted September 21, 2005 Share Posted September 21, 2005 I've heard the Bob Barker rumor evey year. I think that's something the whole world has been waiting for anyway. I remember being on tour in 03' and reading a newspaper article about Strom Thurmonds death. I bought the paper to keep as a memento. Not sure why. As stated many times before, "one more run" is drum corps biggest lie. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JoeW Posted September 21, 2005 Share Posted September 21, 2005 here's a myth.......trumpet/soprano players never hold notes too long! :P heehee Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Xcalibur Posted September 21, 2005 Share Posted September 21, 2005 I'm not proud of this one, but it was quite funny. Back in the day, before everyone on tour had a cellphone, it was very easy to spread false rumors. I told the sopranos that Maynard Ferguson had died. I had two guys who were kind of broken up about this. One guy, almost teary-eyed, told me as they were about to go on the field, "This one's for Maynard." It was all I could do from busting out laughing on the spot. Ok, so that was pretty cruel. Drum corps remains a great place to spread rumors.
