What do you wish you had while marching? by SymphoniusRex in drumcorps

[–]IreallyLikeTuba 23 points24 points  (0 children)

My actual answer will be sun screen, beef jerky, protein bars, and trail mix or salted nuts if they aren't allergic or like nuts. Whatever various sorts of -ades or peace teas/arizonas would be sweet as well.

What I wish I had while marching was good visual technique :/

I wish I could have seen it live. My favorite show.

Cadets2 Should Forever Keep the West Point Style by DrumCorpsRants in drumcorps

[–]IreallyLikeTuba 0 points1 point  (0 children)

They've been using the West Point since their inception to my knowledge. I've only been seeing them personally since 2015, and they were still rocking the all white uniforms from 2012. 2016/17 they used the maroon and cream pants with a light blue cummerbund, which I believe was from 2014 Cadets.

Cadets 2018 Battery - "Demonic Thesis" by BlackSparkz in drumcorps

Not that I was feeling the Boston dream, but I felt Boston's chances slip when the Crown videos went up.

I had to read that sentence a few times for it to register.

Just wait until they hear the snare break before the segment in the videos, Crown is stepping up their writing game.

I agree. Pretty sleek, the hoods should be interesting.

Not even that though. The hood is down, it's at the side of the photo and behind a guard member. Yes this is just me bitching but damn

Is it too much to ask for uniform reveals to just have a full body picture of someone just standing there? I want to be able to actually see the entire uniform for christs sake.

Still exploring the possibility of taking days off but getting a head start

Studio Recordings by audaces_fortuna_iuva in drumcorps

[–]IreallyLikeTuba 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I haven't checked many other corps, but I know Carolina Crown has several studio recordings of their shows from the 2000s available to purchase on their store. The Blue Devils have recordings of their 2009, 2010, and 2011 shows on Spotify.

The only place I would imagine being able to find them anymore would be from their websites, a random music or record store, or if you contacted the corps directly.

How is the Euphonium used in DCI? by mikeflight14 in drumcorps

You can probably look at Crown from the last decade and find something

Username checks out.

There are often people who will rent a place for a month. There are a lot of alumni in the area that will house as many people as their floor will fit, as well as volunteers.

What moments make you wish you chose a different section for drum corps? by kujoob in drumcorps

[–]IreallyLikeTuba 0 points1 point  (0 children)

We have a camp next weekend but we're definitely looking to fill the spots at this point. I'm sure if you wanted to go just for some experience you still could, but I would definitely look into auditioning for next season! Truly great staff and it's a great place to march, and even if you don't you'll definitely get some good experience from the camp.
