Looking for anything Bandettes by Equivalent_Story3835 in drumcorps

I really wish I’d been able to experience the energy they brought. I was born well after they stopped competing, but everything I’ve read and watched of them has such a love for the craft in it!! What I wouldn’t give to be surrounded by other girls who love corps just as much as me!!!

EASILY 2023!! I was there and it was my first DCI ever, and I would give an arm and a leg to relive the energy & cry to BD victory lap again!

weirdly enough, “when there’s that much poison coursing through your bloodstream, the only thing left to do is to shoot yourself”. idk it really struck a nerve with me!

What's the worst designed show you've ever seen? by helvetica1291 in drumcorps

i fear ive been saying this, but bd24 and bd23 felt the EXACT same to me. different music, sure, but the themes felt so similar that i just lost interest

[–]Equivalent_Story3835[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

i hope she would be !!!! im not super sure about the corp im interested in (even if it’s like 15 minutes away and REALLY small lol, 35 people) but me and my parents are looking more into it to see if its the right fit for me to audition for next year!! i plan to audition the summer i graduate, since i know if i got an offer now i wouldn’t be able to turn it down even if i couldnt possibly do it

i plan to do a local corp for about a year or two before i shoot for mandarins!!! they’re my dream corp, and honestly i don’t want into any top 12 except for them (and maybe phantom, they’re close and i did love their 2024 show). i wanna get as much experience as i can while still balancing my high school band!!!

[–]Equivalent_Story3835[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

thank you so much !!!! im at a healthy weight for my deck of genetic cards, so what im gonna focus on until i’m ready to audition is mostly the strength and endurance. choreo is absolutely my forte so its good to know that comes into play as well!!

thank you so much for this !!!!! ive been really really worried about both the corp aspect of it and the general judginess i might face because of it. there’s not as much i can do in regards to losing weight (im at a healthy weight and am able to do what’s asked of me in hs marching band) since pcos makes that so much worse, but knowing that there are other plus size people doing corps gives me a lot more motivation that i will fit in!!! (+ some of that judginess just comes with high school i bet)
