This is from FOUR YEARS AGO. And they still feel.they have to ask this question. STILL feel they need to.explain themselves. Meanwhile, it sure looks like someone has been mining the data when wk after wk after wk they've been making posts abt "amplification" (also explained!) & posted old school performances after seeing those titled "No amplification necessary..." & then seen all the positive responses from those who, for all intents & purposes, are apparently the audience they're gonna have to deal with. And then after all of that we get the big "coming soon!" roll out of the first major announcements of a BIG, UN-MICCED new 2024 performance - implying there will be others on the way. Well! When we've been enduring the de riguer discussions of how you HAVE to agree how genetically superior DCI is to the activity of drum corps & now they're abt to bend a little towards what over the last few wks it has become apparent that people who buy tickets LIKE.... I guess that, umm, clears up a lot, huh? It is still true : First you lost the sound. Then you lost the crowds. And now you're losing the kids.

Simply put, Drum Corps is "Marching Music's Major League". I'm an alumnus of the Cavaliers Drum and Bugle Corps from 1977--1987 (Baritone/Contrabass player). As performers, most of us are so focused that we try to block the crowd's reaction, but when it hits, it's a feeling that's very hard to explain. Sometimes the crowd can be so loud that it overpowers our playing, and that's when it becomes difficult. When your group hits on all cylinders as Santa Clara Vanguard did in the closer (1988 DCI Finals) with all their emotion and power, it's a pretty awesome feeling! That's a hard feeling to beat, knowing that you left absolutely everything on the field, with no regrets. That's what makes it all worth it (win or lose). As for the Cavaliers and myself, it's the Brotherhood that lasts a lifetime that keeps us coming back. This video pretty much sums it all up... well done, Grant.

A lot of what you said is true, but it mostly fits for drum corps after the ‘80’s -ish. Take a look at drum corps between the late ‘60’ and mid ‘70’s. BIG difference in shows and music. But as far as life long friends becoming family, that IS true.

At this point in the evolution of drum corps, I would recommend that someone who has never done it before consider trying out for a non-world class corps, or at least one not in the top echelons. Couple of reasons. 1. Cost/Committment. Generally these are the more expensive corps to join and require intense commitment to the rehearsal and touring schedules. 2. Experience. Also generally, the people who audition for the top corps have lots of experience in their performance area. This isn't to say you can't try out, but understand that these corps are looking for the absolute best possible candidates to join up in order to win the Championship. Regardless of which corps you get into, I can guarantee you've just joined the best non-blood-related family outside of the military.

Phantom Regiment 2016 was the show that I saw first live, and I was captivated. No, it wasn’t the best show Regiment had ever performed, but man, it was stupid cool to a 14 year old me. I eventually got in at Regiment, and the thing that has stuck with me is the experiences, the good, the bad, the funny, the sad. My advice for anyone marching is to absorb it all, it will stick with you forever. I’ve marched 4 years now, and this 5th upcoming season will be my age out. Don’t forget your roots, and don’t forget the journey you took to bloom into who you became.

As a current freshman in high school and a kid who has admired the DCI/ marching band world since I was extreamly young I was able to do my first year of marching and it was the best experiance of my life. We won 2nd place at nationals and It felt increadible. I got so many new friends, more fit, and most importantly more self confidance. I was able to put myself out there and work hard on something I never would have unless it was marching. Now unfortunatly im going through some very sivere health problems so I might not be able to march for a while but when I do become healthy again Im going to march my heart out again. When I become older I know I want to join DCI and this just made me want to even more. So thank you for posting this. <3
