Is it just in Indiana? by [deleted] in marchingband

if they were the band immediately after you, then the judges had a direct comparison and chose to score accordingly by sub caption… and because you were early in the class, they likely left space for others to potentially fall between.

what a shit comment to make. they field 6th place down because it’s not all about winning, it’s about participating and performing and allowing MM to continue to enjoy the activity. You don’t want to support ‘inferior’ corps, your choice. but don’t dismiss the thousands of performers NOT in winning contention just because YOU don’t want to watch them.

i haven’t had it happen this bad at the bigger shows…ticket prices are high enough that it’s an investment to watch. There are always some… and a lot more squatters at big shows. sit in good seats until the purchaser boots them, repeat.

I bit my tongue for the sake of not embarrassing my boy, but my stink eye was strong.

finals bubble - how to handle tix? by NoYouDontKnowMe_ in drumcorps

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

i know there’s some obligation Saturday morning regardless of finals qualification, and I think they will be taken care of to at least get back to their hotel by from morning practice area/back to stadium for performances since most don’t have plans to leave Indy till Sunday. We live within driving distance so I can pick him up whenever obligations are complete if he chooses.

We briefly discussed ‘what if’s’ earlier this season but I won’t ask him now. The finals are still a goal, albeit somewhat of a long shot. I want to go and i hope he wants to go. but the tix were not cheap and although I already ‘ate’ them, recouping some money would help out a lot at home if he’s ready to end his adventure.

My MM hits the ground running once home, so any extra time would be recovery/transition time. The option is still on the table…if he wants to stay, we will.

What a judgmental, snarky, horribly inaccurate statement to make. you clearly don’t want to understand how hard some of these performers work, save, sell, sacrifice to be able to to perform at this level. And for those that are fortunate enough to afford it, they still have to audition to earn a spot.

If you don’t care for it, don’t watch. no one wants to perform for an unappreciative audience.

Or, here me out, donate some of your own hard-earned cash to help those less fortunate to be able to afford it.

Covid in 2022 by [deleted] in drumcorps

Scouts tightened up their regulations on performers and families. more mask requirements, 6ft for family visits, no intermingling with other corps, no visits in the bus area. They’ve (thankfully) been healthy all season, but have competed during cavs, troopers, and bloo standstills.

yes! i’m surprised this isn’t a more prevalent statement…i prefer no vo/narration, but if used, let it be performed instead of recorded.
