CozyChopsCom Posted August 7, 2006 Share Posted August 7, 2006 Kinda wish we had hats at DCA in 87......OY, what a rainstorm! I enjoyed my Empire time sans hat. My facial expression? "Wow! Look at li'l ol' me. I'm on the field with the Statesmen!" I miss Mr. B. Empire is a class act. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Empire is a class act. BTW....re your article in DCWorld on LMS LA.....where did you get the idea that I had been a BD soloist??? Didn;t happen, although i DID make the first cut for Latin Inplosion when it was a duet. You may have gotton me confused with Mike Collins aka the Bearded Wonder....that's happened a few times over the years....but I wasn;t NEAR his skill level... ps...Sam Gambetty.....BBWWHHAAAAA!!!!! (it's SETH Gambetty....) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jeff Ream Posted August 8, 2006 Share Posted August 8, 2006 this is a cool idea...a level not usually seen in DCA in general as far as helping to tell a story. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fran Haring Posted August 8, 2006 Share Posted August 8, 2006 We wear them for the drum solo only. They are used to help portray the racism that Ray Charles struggled to beat throughout his career.Near the end of the drum feature we portray the conflict of black versus white when we are paired together. Yeah, but I thought having Ritchee Price and Joey Pero punching each other out during that sequence was a little over the top. B) JUST KIDDING, of course..... The "hats" thing is a neat idea!

kenweaver Posted August 9, 2006 Author Share Posted August 9, 2006 Is there any truth to the rumor that ES will hire Jamie Foxx to play the part of Ray Charles at DCA Championships this year? How about a giant US flag or a Statue of Liberty to boot. Anything? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
