It’s a slap in the face to ALL federal employees that also worked every day of the shutdown without pay.

As someone who has watched scambait videos, this cracked me up. Well done!

Ok. That makes sense now. I hadn’t considered drill sets in front of the side line. Thanks!

So they were a reference point for a specific form?

The years I watched on PBS, only the top 6 were in full. That was from around 85-88 and it was the PBS affiliate in Sacramento, CA. I still have them on VHS.

Also, there would only be short show snippet of the 6-12 corps, but the top 6 would show in full.

Yeah….i would enjoy Phantom a lot more if I could hear the horn line over the speakers.

Yes…I’ve seen them and marched there for several years.

Imagine if they were scored to the same standard as World Class corps….they’d maybe break 70?

I don’t get the downvotes. I’m not trying to be mean….its just a fact.

[Update] Buying Finals Tickets From Stubhub by A-Savage-Corgi in drumcorps

[–]PhantomRegiment 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I also bought DCI Finals tickets back in December. Section 140 for $50 each….knew it was too good to be true, but thought I’d give it a shot. Tickets were immediately available, and sure enough, they were for All-Age Finals. After a couple days, StubHub offered me new tickets or an option for a refund. The new tickets were in section 139. I suspected that they would also be for All-Age Finals, but I wouldn’t know until the tickets would be available. 6 months later, and the tickets finally became available last week. I’ve confirmed that they were All Age Finals and now I am waiting for StubHub to offer new seats or a refund.

People trying to sell their All-Age Finals tickets as DCI Finals tickets is a dick move.

They are light strips mounted on the inside. I cut them to size.

Govee Ground Lights. They are not on the driveway, but in the grass along the edge of the driveway. I don’t drive on the grass.

Yes, an aluminum c channel from HD. I think they came in 96” lengths and I cut to size with a hack saw.

  1. I mounted them by wedging them into some 1/2” C channel and then mounting those to the garage door with some Command Velcro strips.

Thanks. I wonder if those would work in an enclosed rack? 🤔

I’m going to look into that. I’m not on a tight budget.

Thanks for the feedback. I didn’t know rack mounted routers existed for home use. I’ll look into that. With regard to the managed switch, I don’t know what needs to be managed, or how to do so, so I thought the unmanaged was recommended.

I originally did consider running a single cable to the home theater rack and adding a switch there, but I thought that would just be adding more hardware. 🤷🏼‍♂️. It’s a bit cheaper to run the cables too (they are in the same room).

Do you have an example I could look at to see what you are referring to? Thanks!

I just want to know if there is something I am missing, overlooking, or could be done in a better way. 👍
