So what if a song here or there was done before? You can take lots of DCA or DCI shows over the years and talk about where it was done first. I have heard so many people make comments on how we are doing "the 2000 BD show". Maybe its just me, but i dont remember "orange colored sky" or " baroque samba" from BD that year, and i loved that show. Oh well. <BR/>In any case, DCA is about fun. its about brew, beats and bitches (well, you know what i mean). As long as were all having fun, who cares about the rest. Sure, i would like to get up in the fight like everyone else but its not totally about that. <BR/>Bucs/bush etc, Nice job in Carolina! Hopefully we will see you guys soon.<BR/>Shawn, Sorry about "pussing out" the other night. I was just worn out. Maybe i am gettin old! I will make it up to you next time!!!<BR/><BR/><BR/>Tony Perez<BR/>Brigadiers <BR/>Quad Line 05<BR/>Snare line 04Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11443998.post-1122610521180946672005-07-29T00:15:00.000-04:002005-07-29T00:15:00.000-04:00Hey John!I must admit I made somewhat of a misguid...Hey John!<BR/><BR/>I must admit I made somewhat of a misguided statement. I'm a jazzer, so I know little of classical music and not much of drum corps music past 1992.<BR/><BR/>When Carl Roccuo half-heartedly belatedly tried to recrit me for bucs after he heard I was marchig brigs this year he said Bucs were doing a SCV show.

So much for the good old days! <BR/><BR/>I think your blog is good. Not only does it hype you guys but it hypes us(bush) as well. We're hungry and it's about time we got our shit together. As for the anonymous coward, I'm sure it was a douchebag who decided that tact and class are not a part of the drumcorps activity. I don't know if they are in Bush or not but if they are I assure you that they are the vast minority of our corps mentality. Do we want to beat you? Of course! Do we need to be ass holes about it? No way. Don't think that Bush people are of the same low brow mentality as this poster.<BR/><BR/>I wish the best to you and the corps and hopefully we can have a beer after Kingston. Loser can provide the beer;)Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11443998.post-1122496637373341332005-07-27T16:37:00.000-04:002005-07-27T16:37:00.000-04:00OK, OK.I'll back off.Blame it on the heat.

It is about excellence in performance, and at the time this was the only group achieveing at an extremely high level. Well that and the group of instructors (Wayne, Gino, James) that were working with the Brigs at the time.<BR/><BR/>I also want you to take note that I have not once said anything bad about Bush in this post. You sir (or ma'am as the case may be) took it upon yourself to clearly point out what you see as flaws with our program that in your opinion make it of lesser quality then other organizations out there. You steeped up to the plate and laid out a wonderful insult for the whole world to read. And that's ok because obviously it has made you feel better. Now you can go call all of your drum corps buddies and post aloud on the internet how much defended one of your favorite corps by bashing another...it ok, all's fair in love and war right?Shawn C.https://www.blogger.com/profile/10521896444489221658noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11443998.post-1122493748269100802005-07-27T15:49:00.000-04:002005-07-27T15:49:00.000-04:00Yes, and God be willing, the best corps WILL win ....Yes, and God be willing, the best corps WILL win ... with originality and all...Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11443998.post-1122493596955243282005-07-27T15:46:00.000-04:002005-07-27T15:46:00.000-04:00As an alumnus of both corps I cordially invite you...As an alumnus of both corps I cordially invite you to kiss my ass!<BR/><BR/>That being said...if you knew the challenges this corps has gone through this year to even be out on the field you would have a different opinion.<BR/><BR/>If you had been reading past entries in this blog, you would see that a month ago, we just flat out were awful at performance. Since then the corps has found an identity, as it does every year, and this year we found it with more then 2 or 3 weks remaining in the season. Wouldl you prefer that we give a lackluster performance so you could snicker at how we "had it coming to us."<BR/><BR/>"having it coming to us" is just about as believeable as, "They are so due." The corps that work the hardest and the smartest come out at or near the top. We happen to have delivered that standard for going on 7 years now, and when the chips fall on Labor Day, we may have just defined another standard that goes beyond performance, beyond scores, and beyond your little closed minded world of BD copycat wannabe entertainers.<BR/><BR/>I've also said this before and I'll say it again. For us to get close to the level that BD can play their charts is really an awesome achievement. I'll stand proudly on my high horse and trumpet my claims all over the universe that the recording my corps put out was of high quality and worthy of the praise of the original arranger (who also happened to arrange the same chart for BD!)<BR/><BR/>Put that in your pipe and smoke it, and may the best corps win.Shawn C.https://www.blogger.com/profile/10521896444489221658noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11443998.post-1122493015453098522005-07-27T15:36:00.000-04:002005-07-27T15:36:00.000-04:00Let's go Brigs!!!

I hear their show isn't even done yet, visually. The Cabs found your weakness in 2003, and removed you from your high horses for a change. Try being original and stop stealing BD's shows. It's SO bando to do other corps charts, note for note.<BR/><BR/>The Brigs are not infallable, sir. I have been a fan of all the DCA corps for a long time, and I'm sick and tired of the Brigs thinking that their shit doesn't stink. You're going down, and you're going down hard. Get used to it. <BR/><BR/>I am not affiliated with any drum corps.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
