For yet another day, the Carolina Crown are practicing their routine. Today at City View High School, they are preparing for tonight's Rumble in the Falls.

 

"A lot of fine details we have to get better at and get consistent so we can do everything right for the whole 11 minutes," Bob Medworth said about the practice session.

 

Practicing in the 100 degree heat is one thing, but doing it on only three hours of sleep in a sleeping bag on a gymnasium floor is another. The team got to City View at 5:00 a.m. today, and this is just one of several destinations.

 

"They've been up to New York and Rhode Island through Indiana, Ohio, Michigan, down Louisiana and to Texas. We're headed to Arkansas tonight," Medworth explains.

 

Mostly incoming and current college students make up the 128 person drum and bugle core. 127 are from the United States.

 

"Everything is a lot bigger in America so the crowds and the activity is a lot larger over here," Steve Wright said.

 

Wright is from Newburry, England, which is an hour west of London and much cooler than Texas.

 

"When we've been out a bit further south and a bit further west its been pretty brutal and sort of around 110," he said.
