  2. The Danpodcast - DCI Southwestern Nerd-In 2019

    in Drum Corps Forum

    Posted

    Man, DCI is LEGIT this year. Just incredible really. Crossmen was over the top good. And I haven’t even seen Crown, Crusaders or SCV yet tonight! Just wish Bluecoats and BD were here. That’s all that’s missing to make it perfect. Heck even the weather is amazing tonight. :D

     

    It's a strong year.  The middle of Finals is going to be a cluster of wonderfulness!

    The 2002 UIL 5A State Marching Finals Contest was cancelled due to inclement weather and poor field conditions.  Please listen to my first-hand account of one of the craziest marching contests in history and how my rear end literally helped cancel the contest.  Thank you for the support!!!

    The Danpodcast - Band Bucks Myth

    in Past Contests, Events, and Festivals Archive

    Posted

    The props and tarps are getting more elaborate each year, but there is a major myth about where that money comes from and how much impact it has on a program’s on-field success.  Pull up a tall glass of mulch and let’s talk about how fundraising helps a band program in more ways than expected. Thanks for the love and support!!!


     

     

  15. The Danpodcast - BOA Applications And You

    Cannot thank you enough for the ode to seniors that you included at the end of this. I really do owe it to so many excellent people during my 4 year tenure at the Seven Lanes Band; your reminder helped me understand that.

     

    I cannot wait to experience the 2019 marching season through the eyes of an enthusiast in the same ways that many of you all have been. I’m going to follow this activity for a long time, no doubt. Unfortunately some of the activities I wanted to see live won’t work out since I’m in college marching band (which I’m definitely excited about), but that’s what FloMarching is for!

     

    And this should go without saying but thank you for the rest of the podcast as well. So much excellent information packed in them as always.

     

    Definitely a good time to reflect on the experiences, positive and negative, and use those lessons to help you figure out the next phase in Life.  Thanks for listening!!
