dccorpsfan Posted June 1, 2007 Share Posted June 1, 2007 Though tragic, it's a fact that many corps come and go. What are some corps you wish would come back? My list (as of a few months ago) was VK, Bridgemen, and 27th Lancers; but from what I understand, the Bridgemen are making a comeback and VK will be back for this season. Hopefully, 27 will follow their lead. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hopefully, 27 will follow their lead. Bayonne has created a wonderful alumni corps seemingly (but of course not really) overnight. 2-7 will not be back apparently (outside of the 94 miracle performance) but Light Brigade is an alumni corps keeping their music alive (though some 2-7 alums here on DCP have quite a different take on what they are doing). Being an East coast guy...who started in the 60's....I'd add St Lucy's and Blue Rock to the list. I would add BS, my personal favorite corps through the 60's, but they have a great alumni corps already. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We do have reunion coming up in October in which we will all be one happy family again. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OldBones Posted June 1, 2007 Share Posted June 1, 2007 Quite simply, ALL OF THEM. Whether they would be Div1 - Div2 - or Div3. Wouldn't be nice to have drum corps back as it was back in the 60s? Tons of local shows. Busy every weekend. Middle of the week shows that you do not have to travel hundreds of miles to get to. It would actually make drum corps more affordable and more accessable. Now if there there was a way to start a corps without spending $150,000 - $250,000 - $500,000 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
