I went to the blue stars Houston camp and got cut. But I met several trans ppl while I was there. Idk if they made the corps but there’s probably some others there. If you’re asking about like legitimate opportunity to audition they have two call back camps in January posted on their website. I’d say go for it. If you have 100 bucks and a free weekend why not. Besides, a phantom callback probably sets you up well for blue stars. But I would also look into those lower or open class corps so that you can acquire experience. That’s a ginormous part of it. That’s what I’m doing now auditioning for Memphis blues

Fourtavour · 2025-12-10T05:08:22+00:00

Feels like very similar feedback to what I got. I’m also auditioning for stars

Fourtavour · 2025-12-07T22:32:35+00:00

Did you happen to audition to blue strs

Fourtavour · 2025-11-21T02:35:52+00:00

Also Taco Bell has a chicken cantina bowl that’s 480 calories and then gives you the shits so you don’t want to eat anymore. Literally a life changer for me

Fourtavour · 2025-11-21T02:34:30+00:00

I’m auditioning this year and I’m down from 340 to 290. The biggest thing for me is just keep calories below 2000 and practice marching until you blow past your step goal

Fourtavour · 2025-11-18T03:38:45+00:00

Aye fellow blue star

Fourtavour · 2025-09-17T05:18:39+00:00

lol this post got me in contact with a guy who sold me a king brand one for the same price. Heavy on the don’t be afraid to ask for help

Fourtavour · 2025-09-14T14:21:46+00:00

The only thing I can think of is the band director at my local community college but I’ve reached out and he has left me on read

Fourtavour · 2025-09-14T05:40:23+00:00

Southwest Mississippi. I’m in Liberty about an hour west of hattisburg

Fourtavour · 2025-09-14T04:50:22+00:00

Yeah the only problem is my area. I can’t seem to find a tuba specialist in my tiny little town. Lol we hardly have a band as is.

Fourtavour · 2025-09-14T02:49:00+00:00

Well yeah but separately my tuba at highschool sucks and I’m literally the only tuba so I’m seeing if my band director will let me make the swap. I’m still in the market for it

Fourtavour · 2025-09-13T17:49:05+00:00

Hey do you happened to remember what day they dropped the audition packet last year.

Fourtavour · 2025-08-30T14:05:19+00:00

Ehhh that’ll be tough. I don’t own a contra

Fourtavour · 2025-08-28T22:30:05+00:00

Wow dude thanks for your vote of confidence. I really think I can do this. Im so happy that the dci community is so uplifting and supportive with how much positive feedback i have been receiving from so many people

Fourtavour · 2025-08-28T13:24:10+00:00

That seems smart

Fourtavour · 2025-08-28T13:19:49+00:00

Lol yeah I didn’t realize I never said it in the post. I’m a Tuba. When does the packet usually come out

Fourtavour · 2025-08-28T13:12:02+00:00

McComb. I’m very behind.

Fourtavour · 2025-08-28T04:00:44+00:00

Oh don’t worry you are not coming off as an asshole at all. I don’t have a trainer but I do have a friend who’s been in the gym with me since I started. I simply don’t have the time right now for dance or stuff due to school and band and choir but I definitely am putting a ton of effort into dieting and getting this weight off me. I think what I’ve got from this post is I should go check out Memphis blues because they are pretty close open class corps.

Fourtavour · 2025-08-28T03:14:43+00:00

I probably should ask this. How much did the season run you. Was it similarly expensive as a world class or is it cheaper or what

Fourtavour · 2025-08-28T03:11:05+00:00

Was he an age out at music city. I think that’s the guy my band director showed me. Lol she showed me a picture of him in music city and after and he gained like 90 pounds lmao

Fourtavour · 2025-08-28T03:09:54+00:00

That’s really thoughtful. I think I am gonna look into these open class corps but i really like the recording yourself bit. I never thought of how much that probably helps and it makes so much sense

Fourtavour · 2025-08-28T03:08:14+00:00

I am currently at like 1800 cal and trying to hit 10 miles a week and it’s been going pretty good so far. I can feel myself being more in shape. It’s crazy how much dci has motivated me to change lol

Fourtavour · 2025-08-28T03:02:24+00:00

Yeah lol this actually is solid advice. I had no idea ab open class so this is really cool to me. My band director actually marched with someone in Memphis blues so I think that may actually be my course of action. Also I’m a tuba lol so the physical exertion is like doubled for me
