B) The Syracuse Brigadiers have had a girl on contra since 99, she is the section leader this year. They also had a second girl in 2000 and I think 99 also. ^0^ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LancerFi Posted February 11, 2003 Share Posted February 11, 2003 I apologize for not reading all of the way through this post but here is my answer. "Girls" I mean ladies/woman can do anything they want to do, be it contra or anything else. Not that we had the greatest drum line in the world-almost in 84 or 85, but we had a snare in our line from 78 to 81....back then they said women couldn't play them either. "Boys" - I mean men do guard quite nicely, who would have thunk? I know that's a difference story all together, the guard thing, but whatever...

Aezuriel Posted February 24, 2003 Share Posted February 24, 2003 Girls on Contras? Man... I thought this debate was over LONG ago. Personally, I'd like to ask if anyone thinks its possible for a Sop to handle a Contra. Heh heh heh. And... I mean that without any specialized vitamins or training. Seriously speaking though... the only concern I really have about it is whether or not there are any really cute ContraGal's in my future. It'd be nice to play around sometime, with someone of like interests... B) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bfhdznr Posted February 24, 2003 Share Posted February 24, 2003 yes girls can play contra! no sops can't!!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lobrass7 Posted February 24, 2003 Share Posted February 24, 2003 Well, you would think...Corpsvets just reached a new era.... Their very first contra chick. cheers Very cool! BTW, when I was in the USC band, we had a young woman in the sousaphone section - all 5 feet of her! And to answer the question, yes, I think women can play not only contra, but any instrument we men can play. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
