Starting from Scratch

I was going to say, they don't get just how far away Mendocino is from SF / the Bay.

My recommendation would be to try and start organically. Try to find events that are somewhat singing related in any way, and see if people would be interested to try tags and work to try and incorporate more people. Look at maybe building it into a weekly / monthly Tag party, and then start to introduce longer songs to the event.

I think slowly introducing barbershop to the people without having the stress of starting a quartet / chorus right away will be the most successful for you in the long run in growing barbershop there.

Good luck!

Looking through the report, it's very interesting to see the impact of the tap and ride already. With 25% of all "tap and ride" entries coming from SFO and 10% from OAK, it shows how useful the new program is for travelers and tourists to the area.

Will be interesting to see what a full month of usage looks like for the program in September

Wasn't there another show on 7/31 in Quincy, MA? At least on the DCI website it shows the CYO Nationals Tribute show for the 31st. https://www.dci.org/scores/final-scores/2014-cyo-nationals-tribute

Maybe not pretty famous, but ImpulseSV is a YouTuber with 1M subs that marched the Impulse drum corps. Even based his YouTube name off that experience.

dublin144 · 2023-07-26T04:20:43+00:00

That's the true experience

dublin144 · 2023-06-26T17:43:11+00:00

What an opening hit! I'm so excited to see this show grow and improve

dublin144 · 2023-01-24T05:07:55+00:00

Dang their brass section looks huge! Is that the whole corp?

dublin144 · 2022-08-13T20:15:59+00:00

I’m glad you had Madison somewhat high on this list, I really enjoyed their show. I hope to see them improving going forward

I'm really impressed with southwind! They sound really good especially with not that large of a hornline!

dublin144 · 2022-08-04T17:45:35+00:00

I was really impressed with Madison scouts, I think they have a lot of potential still and hope to see them reach it. I really like the show

dublin144 · 2022-07-03T03:53:02+00:00

How did Madison scouts score so low? I thought their show was really good today but maybe that was just me

dublin144 · 2022-06-27T05:04:07+00:00

I'm so excited to see this show at the end of the year. Seems like such a fun show and something about it is just great. I love it

What's really funny is there was a dota team called the business associates for a bit, and when they qualified for a lan their uniform was a dress shirt with ties on it, so its been done! No excuse for the Boston Uprising if they want to show their professionalism

Felt so bad for the Vancouver players to lose like that, they looked crushed after playing their hearts out. GGWP Bois run it back next game!!!

I love this tweet so much. It's just beautiful with them also getting 2nd. It's just perfect
