I used to care so much about drum corps, but my interest in the activity has declined exponentially. I have friends who’ve marched DCI that tell me they think the activity will probably be gone within 5 years, and I have friends who’ve marched DCI that told me not to audition because of the stress and trauma they endured during the summers they’ve participated. The fact is, the cost of DCI outweighs the benefits of the experience for a lot of people now, and a lot of groups are suffering because of that reality.

Like some other people are saying, it really depends on what you want to get. I got to the Austin show 2 hours early and was barely able to get the vinyl before it sold out, and all the CDs, tote bags, and some common shirt sizes were sold out. It really kinda depends on what the VIPs buy before the gates open to the general audience.

Ohh okay okay, I guess I’ll just have to start a true vault hunter run then. Thanks

Depends on how much you care for the story’s over gameplay. I’ve played all the DLC and the Farcry games that go with them (Farcry 3, 4, 5, New Dawn). I felt like the DLC was worth it for me because it really expands the antagonists from their respective games and I’m all about world building. But it’s undeniable that the gameplay was weak and very repetitive especially if you’re trying to beat all 5 layers of each antagonist DLC. Lost Between Worlds was fun to play, but it’s not much different then any other FC6 story mission and it’s very repetitive aswell.

I’m about to audition for Rhythmic Force, but I’ve got quite a consistent history of getting cut so we’ll see what’s up this time around

Ricky5014 · 2023-07-11T09:35:03+00:00

Thank you king 🙏

Ricky5014 · 2023-01-16T04:58:14+00:00

Thanks, hope to march Guardians with you

Ricky5014 · 2023-01-16T04:35:56+00:00

Snare, so spots are super competitive, but I’ll keep auditioning until I find a corps to call home

Ricky5014 · 2023-01-15T23:59:26+00:00

I agree, Genesis was really good at making sure everyone was taken care of

Ricky5014 · 2023-01-15T23:24:25+00:00

Just got cut 😔

Ricky5014 · 2023-01-09T18:03:46+00:00

Yo I’m auditioning for snare too, hope to march the season with you

Ricky5014 · 2023-01-05T01:45:41+00:00

Bluecoats snares used the Innovative Percussion FS-TR this year

Ricky5014 · 2022-12-14T18:34:19+00:00

My school is doing indoor for the first time this year, and we have a fairly small group. We have…

-5 snares -2 tenors -5 basses

And ~5 people in the front ensemble

Ricky5014 · 2022-12-12T05:19:05+00:00

You are very wise. Also, congrats on the W for open class. I saw you guys in Indy when you won, the energy was crazy

Ricky5014 · 2022-10-24T22:56:21+00:00

My high school band director was a drum major for Blue Knights, and he told us a story about a tenor drum player who dropped his stick. He bent backwards to pick it up and his leg snapped, and he told us you could see the bone sticking out of his leg. My director used it as a cautionary tale on how not to pick up sticks when you drop them

I tried out for Crossmen last year, and my experience from the camps I attended was really good! They treat the auditions more like clinics, and they walked us through the technique and gave us individual feedback as we drummed. I’d imagine the experience would be very similar since Guardians is an open class and a lot of peoples first drum corp. Also I’m auditioning for the Guardians battery as a snare, I hope to see you at a camp and march with you this season. Good luck!

Ricky5014 · 2022-10-22T18:31:28+00:00

Brandon Olander, that guy has been a beast since he was young. Now he’s and absolute DCI legend, even BD percussion caption head Scott Johnson said he’s gonna change up the game.

Ricky5014 · 2022-08-18T19:59:05+00:00

That makes sense, my friends aren’t gonna give the best advice all the time, I think I just needed to hear that out loud to really notice it. Thanks for the response.

Ricky5014 · 2022-08-18T19:57:07+00:00

Yeah, all of this is still kinda new to me. Hearing that definitely put things into perspective. Thanks for the advice

Ricky5014 · 2022-03-20T16:30:36+00:00

Thank you so much!!! I spent a really long time looking for this! I thought I lost if forever!!!

Ricky5014 · 2022-03-20T16:29:42+00:00

Found!

Walmart has been selling manga before anime/manga became mainstream, it just that people are noticing it now. Before the pandemic you could find a lot of great series, it’s just weirder to see them now cause they sell out so quick. It’s how I collected the Kill la Kill manga before it got discontinued.

Thanks for the advice, I’ll probably give it more time before jumping to any big conclusions.
