melligene Posted February 14, 2006 Share Posted February 14, 2006 That's right Donny! The THUNDERBIRDS will be communicatin' a medley comprised with 50 years of vociferous Drum Corps. I would like to personally thank Donny Allen for the 2nd loudest chart in our show. "ARTISTRY IN RYTHYM" proves to be an ideal "openner" for our extremely well-balanced hornline. The openning statement will "rip your head off." The audience will go nuts when they hear our LOUDEST chart. (and it ain't "FLAMENCO CHA CHA") Our "closer" will close any idea that any other Drum Corps will win the show. We ain't messin' around this year! We're looking forward to St. Joe's Classic. In fact, we're looking forward to any, and all, performances. IMO this may be one of the most technically challanging but at the same time most rewarding and entertaining shows the TBIRDS have ever done. Arrangements are exceptional (Thanks DA...and Jeff Gibbens). I think this year will be a style presented by our Corps' that may surprise you. I know it surprises me. (and I've been around since GERITOL) b**bs Seriously though .......our 50th Year could possibly be our best effort ever. See Yinz' in Harrisburg for Serenade In Brass and The Classic in Rochester. :) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hopefully I will get the chance to work on it before you play it in public!!!! If not I am sure that you guys will [play it] loud...

Donny Drum Corps Posted February 20, 2006 Share Posted February 20, 2006 I am definitely available that day. After seeing and hearing the Ghost Riders, it seems to me that will be in great shape for the Classic. I also know that Prime Time Brass will delight the crowd after a very successful rehearsal weekend. That show is shaping up nicely.
