Wanderer Posted June 17, 2006 Share Posted June 17, 2006 Or let's just here why the were in exhibition They were smaller than I hoped, but did well for a Div III corps in their first show. A lady next to me (I didn't know before the show) actually felt Capital Sound's Mello's did better than Pioneer's. I'm not sure I agree with that, but it shows that CS did fine for their first show.

manlybandman Posted June 17, 2006 Share Posted June 17, 2006 One thought on their exhibition performance.....does DCI still require 30 members for Division III corps? I only counted 28 or 29 performers. But they did a pretty good job. Only a couple of obvious holes in the drill..... Come on kids...if you're not marching somewhere...there's a spot for you.

I counted 13 brass, 5 Guard, 5 percussion and 4 pit - might have missed one or two, but I do believe they were short of 30. My big question is, did they finish their show? I know "Augustus Gloop", which was supposed to be their closer, and I didn't hear that last night. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kusankusho Posted June 17, 2006 Share Posted June 17, 2006 I hope they can pull it out - they were a strong corps last year with a big battery - those numbers are a shock to me. Good luck Cap Sound! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
charlesdrum Posted June 17, 2006 Share Posted June 17, 2006 Best of luck to Capital Sound. An awesome corps for many years. Anyone know the reasons for such a small corps this year. Weren't they DII last year? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kansasDC Posted June 18, 2006 Share Posted June 18, 2006 Best of luck to Capital Sound. An awesome corps for many years. Anyone know the reasons for such a small corps this year. Weren't they DII last year? No, they were Div. III, but they were very good. It is such a shame to hear they are struggling for members. There has to be a way to convince more people that Div. III (and II) are worth joining. My son got a ton out of his year in Div. III last year. I know some of the Div. I corps try to talk the people they cut into going to a Div. II or III, but I know alot of others don't. These local corps used to be the backbone of the activity. I'm not sure how healthy it will be for the long-term health of the activity if we lose this base. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
