Yeah - I know I have never personally heard a Chase tune on the field in DCI.

Huh? :blink:

"Another"? What corps specifically have been playing (or over-playing as your post implies) Bill Chase tunes? ECJ was the last junior corps to play any Chase, and that was in 99. Freelancers played a Chase show in 93. Not one Div 1 corps in 14 years. Wow, you must really hate Bill Chase.

Bill Chase's music is a joke. #### good trumpet player, but nothing I'd exactly want to listen to. Duke Ellington though....well that just goes without saying. The man was obviously a complete genius and his music reflects that. A corps (BD, whoever) really does need to play Chinoserie or Dimenuendo and Crecendo in Blue. You're doing the world a disservice if you choose Bill Chase over that.

This I Believe-California Style

We screwed up with the Yowsa show in 2005

We thought we had a surefire winner with The Godfather in 2006

Lets get back to basics and win # 12 in California with an in your face horn book and a take no prisoners drumline(getting rid of the Dynasty drums would help)

We played some chase in 84 & 85, and I think Florida Wave played a chase tune in the late 80's as well. But other than that I've not heard much chase on the field.

That was pretty much my point. There has not been much Chase music hitting hte field. Some may not like it. Cool, different strokes. But I'd personally love to see some.
