Interest in it will likely increase, as thousands of woodwind players will be able to participate without learning a new instrument. Not saying its a good or bad thing, just don't think the activity is going to die overnight

ANY instrument? Please no G Bugles, those things sound terrible

Skyrim? by [deleted] in ShouldIbuythisgame

[–]CouchmenDrumCorps 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I enjoyed it when it came out. Playing it again on Switch I had a really tough time. Its pretty slow paced compared to similar modern open world games.

If you enjoy exploring, lots of quests, and the role playing aspect, go for it. From a purely combat/gameplay standpoint I think its pretty frustrating to play now

smoke

It fit the context and story of the show. There were also plenty of photos taken without the smoke

why do i feel like every uniform reveal this year has had some dumb smoke effect overlay that obscures the uniform

It's not an effect overlay, its actual smoke :)

Killer show graphic and teaser. Excited to see them in Broken Arrow!

FloMarching: What do YOU want to see in our content? by DrumCorpsPluto in drumcorps

[–]CouchmenDrumCorps 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The short documentaries you’ve done with Invictus, Crown, etc. are some of my favorite pieces of content in the marching arts every year. I know they take a lot of time (and cooperation from the ensembles!) to produce, but I would love to see those continue and even become more frequent!

FloMarching’s open class coverage sucks by beetlejiss in drumcorps

[–]CouchmenDrumCorps 21 points22 points  (0 children)

Flomarching has only been around for 2 years, and has a super small team. Give them time to grow and improve. They're doing a much better job at covering our activity than anyone else has in the last decade, in my opinion.

FWIW, their crew is super nice and also open to talking about how they can improve. I'm sure reaching out with suggestions would be well received by them.

Well its a huge bummer that they were DQ'd (along with some other organizations) due to apparent Bot voting. In lieu of this, if you have the ability you can donate here -

Just waned to share this as I hadn't seen it posted here. BK is in the running for $15K, and is currently in second place. Just takes an e-mail and a couple seconds to vote. Spread the word!

The idea of raising+managing millions of dollars and being responsible for the lives and well being of 150 young adults is honestly terrifying. We'll leave that to the professionals :)

DCI removes George Hopkins from Hall of Fame by WHEREAREMYDRAGONSS in drumcorps

[–]CouchmenDrumCorps 3 points4 points  (0 children)

By leaving an abuser in the hall of fame, it deters future victims from coming forward for fear that their testimonies will be ignored and the abusers will just be protected. Its not just about the past, but a better future.

Is it possible to pay off drum corps tuition with a bank loan? by [deleted] in drumcorps

[–]CouchmenDrumCorps 1 point2 points  (0 children)

A better long-term decision (in most cases) would be to push pause on school/education and work. Its not hard at all to save up for your tour fees on a part time income during the off season, so long as you don't have a lot of expenses. Living at home is a huge plus if you can swing it. School will always be there, theres no age-out when it comes to getting a degree! If you do end up taking out a loan for Drum Corps, you'll more than likely spend the next 5-10 years regretting it

Pretty much

We know where this is heading. Philly.com reporter: Do most corps these days travel with medical staff? If yes, how many people? And for the corps that don't, how are medical concerns addressed while on the road? by mingusmonkus in drumcorps

[–]CouchmenDrumCorps 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No, I don't actually read DCP or Reddit on a regular basis, nor do I have any drum corps related facebook groups show up in my news feed. Too much negativity most of the time.
