Your butt gets sore every time your see a coach bus.

You never visit McDonald's when not on tour.

You have to buy a second corps jacket for all of your patches.

You wear flip-flops in the shower at home.

Before you buy a pair of shoes you make sure the heels roll!

You can play the harmonica because you started marching in the G/D bugle era. (The "blow" notes are the open notes, the "suck" notes are the "piston" notes, and the chromatic slide is the rotor on the old G/D bugle.)

You you go to a buffet and are THE best (and most impressive) there at carrying mulitple trays and plates of food because you use the "roll step" to get the job done.

you get odd looks from people not only because you're blasting music out of your car but the music your blasting isn't rock or rap. it's drum corps.

:P I'm guilty as charged! B)

Your favorite searches on eBay are "drum corps", "bugle corps" and the name of your old corps.

Your collection of corps pins and patches are hanging on the wall in the den.

The instrument repair shop owner greets you by name as you walk in the door.

You know members of other corps by who they march with, how many years they marched and possibly their favorite drink. (Notice I didn't say you know what their name is.)

And one that drives my wife nuts.... You're on a bus trip and you fall asleep two minutes after the bus hits cruising speed on the highway. Man, just thinking about it makes me sleepy.

You've been marching drum corps longer than 80% of your fellow corps members have been alive! A number of rookies this year were even born the same year I started marching Sun in 1992, my 6th year in drum corps!
