John Schmitt Posted December 23, 2006 Share Posted December 23, 2006 It happened to me twice last week, but I was with a brass quintet not a drumline, and it was in a bar not a dark field. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Slow Adam Posted December 24, 2006 Share Posted December 24, 2006 This shouldn't be locked. The great white stick is pre-worlds tradition. I've marched a drumline and taught a drumline that did the great white stick ceremony. I'm not sure of the exact origins, but I think it is a mostly Canadian thing. And yes, you go into the middle of a dark secluded place and there is a chant: "The great white stick never ticks." Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
