Percussion827 Posted July 24, 2006 Share Posted July 24, 2006 (edited) Jeff, with what I heard and read. MVE's members are the second toughest SOB's in Drum Corps. (no offense, but we have to keep our reputation you know?) Edited July 24, 2006 by Percussion827 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jeff danchik Posted July 24, 2006 Share Posted July 24, 2006 Jeff, with what I heard and read. MVE's members are the second toughest SOB's in Drum Corps. (no offense, but we have to keep our reputation you know?) Its a shame we didn't march, we finished the show last week and looked forward to cleaning it up during the 5 hours we planned on being at the HS.This week I have to pickup the pieces and get us back together and back on track.Stopped and cleaned out the bus today and will hopefully get it towed to a garage and pick it up this weekend.You would not believe how close we were to the abuttment of the Patapsco river bridge. Less than 20 feet.I'm tired, I've put 30 hours on the road the past 2 days.see ya all soon. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

usmcontra Posted July 24, 2006 Share Posted July 24, 2006 (edited) Oh, and let's not forget that those Cadets singers are working their ##### off, as well, to put out the best product that they can, as we all are, but I guess we've lost sight of that in the now personal vendetta against me. Please be sure to give me your regards the next time you don't see me at a DCA show. Edited July 24, 2006 by usmcontra Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
camel lips Posted July 24, 2006 Share Posted July 24, 2006 (edited) Oh, and if you think that we spend 8 hours a day working on our drill show like junior corps do, you would be wrong. We probably work on it less than you do. I doubt that. I figured it up one time what the average DCA corps puts in on rehersal time.It was somewhere around 180 hours a year.

Robbie Ellis Posted July 24, 2006 Share Posted July 24, 2006 I guess we all can't sound like the U.S. Marines D & B. <sigh> Over the years we have played the same charts as they and it always made me uncomfortable because of the inevitable comparisons. I always assumed Colonel Truman Crawford knew we were not going to sound like his beloved Marine Corps. BTW, I got TOTALLY drenched watching the U. S. Marines D & B perform. Yikes! I can only imagine what this Marine thinks of the Yankee Rebels Alumni corps! As I've said on several threads, I enjoyed this show and the incredible effort put out by everyone especially in those conditions. I've read many stories on DCP concerning this show about corps helping each other and some great camraderie. I am encouraged that good will still exists between corps. Everyone has their favorites in this activity and some corps sound better than others. Always will. God knows, we hear it all the time at the Alumni shows. Most of the Alumni corps are bigger than us so we get the same critique but we care as much about our product as the bigger and newer corps do and work just as hard. It is never a good idea to criticize another group because you never know when it will turn around and bite you in the a##. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
