TX Suh-nare

Hmm...never heard of Mypace before. What's nastier...coughing up blood in your girlfriend's mouth, or vomiting all over your trombone?

of 1000 Dances

Part 1 Answer: Almost every top named band in the country. Part 2 Answer: Where on earth did Broken Arrow come from?! They usually barely make finals and now they are champions of arguably the best GN year EVER! LOCO, hombre Why do girls give off hints when a lot of them know most guys (like myself) are WAY too stupid to catch them?

When did Broken Arrow get so good? I knew thay were finals worthy, but they usually don't get into top 5. That is what I found most suprising. On top of that, congrats to Woodlands. That's a really good score for them, and all TX bands. Broken Arrow, man. I STILL can't get over that!

Probably, since the "legalizing" if you will of sound equipment into DCI in the early 2000s. It might not be the best idea in foresight considering the recent bashing on the Cadets for the usage of their equipment in "unorthodox" ways. But, then again, a lot of people love Reagan's show ideas since they are so unique, so who knows if they'll make their approach more conservative or not. That all remains to be seen.

If you ever notice, usually only the drunks survive accidents like that. It's the sober ones that get it worse.

I was one of the guys that thought relationships were over-rated... Then last year I got a girlfriend. Yeah, we had to end it, but in all honesty, I got a lot out of it. One, she's one of my closest friends. Two, I learned how to treat people better. Three, relationships can be humbling experiences. Just be careful how you approach them. You girl/boyfriend can either be your best friend or your rost enemy when it's all over.

Oh, how true...

Yup.

Don't have to worry 'bout that (drums rock)

Both. Yum. does a spoonful of sugar help the medicine go down, or does it just make you bounce off the walls?

I swear it. My percussion director marched two years for him back in the mid-90s.

Not really, but my band ws preparing to go to warmup when I caught a glimpse of Taft's unis. Those were sweet!

Blue Stars and Crossmen would be a good choice, but watch out for Crown. They'll have a good drumline, but the guy running the program (Lee Beddis) is infamous for having an almost abusive teaching style. It works, but he'll kick the snot out of you up there (not literally, but you get the point)

Bighorn (stepping back into history for this one)

Who doesn't? Do you find it Ironic that the engine for the Cavalier "Dynasty" are Yamha instruments? (please only answer if you get the crappy joke in it)

Not exaclty. Every GIRL at every high school loves the Cavies. Isn't that just ironic? The most popular corps among females is the one they'll never get in?

OK, man. I can see what you're saying. But I think I've got another view for you. OK, to start off, when did Star of Indiana first field a corps? According to dci.org, 1985. From 1985-1993, this is one of two drum corps to never place out of finals (the other being SCV), which is a feat in and of its own. Also, most corps at the time already had a multi-decade history, and Star still ties the record for the youngest corps to ever win a DCI championship (only seven years old, tied with again SCV) and is the first drum corps to win a championship as a corps that only participated in DCI, (since most corps at the time, and even today, were formerly VFW and Boy Scout troops prior to DCI's founding). Plus, DCI isn't always a sport of numbers, but also a crowd sport. Star captued the imagination and attention of the drum corps world from the start and held its spot as a crowd pleaser. Star did that the whole time it fielded a corps, and it continues that with Blast, in true Star fashion, on their own terms. Now, about 1993. Yes, that show was second to The Cadets of Bergen County (playing "When Kings Go Off To War" by Holsinger), but that show completely discarded everything considered the norm for drum corps at the time when the modern corps style of music setup (in opener, ballad, drum feature, then closer) was becoming popular, and they introduced something which by TODAY'S terms (16 years later) is considered very contemporary and extremely surreal. I will say you bring up an oustanding point with the Cavalier dynasty, and the Cavies of late (especially '02 and I think '03) are some of, if not the greatest corps ever fielded, period. Just don't think that it takes multiple championships to make a corps great. Many legendary shows to our eyes didn't get rings, in fact some weren't even in the top 5 (Madison '96 and Crossmen '92) Just way too many words for you to chew on there.

Double Beat is WAY too overused. Get the '05 version w/ Murray throwin' a cowbell groove, and it won't be so much. I didn't realize how cool Latin Lover was. AWESOME!

Cost too much!

Ronald Reagan=TOO GOOD!(jk)

I'll chunk my TV out the window before I'll watch either. Oprah is too rich and Dr. Phil is gettn' WAY too big for his britches, especially since he isn't a real doctor. Who's cooler on Fresh Prince, Carlton or Jazz?

Whatever this is actually called. http://youtube.com/watch?v=S-KlY3d5lF8 Just to let you know, the SCV '92 drumlineline had Colin McNutt, Jim Cassella, Nick Angelis, Jeff Queen, AND Murray Gusseck, among others. Just sick
