Call DCI at 708-495-9866, they are the source of the CD's from the World
Championships each year.  I doubt they have a catalog. The corps themselves
rarely have there own CD's, but some do have special collections, probably
only the top 5 rated corps would do this.

	My Christmas Present: 

	John LaMacchia's stunning 20th anniversary portrait.

I must admit this work of art really captured for me the spirit of drumcorps.
It relied a little perhaps on the rich history and tradition of the activity
and I would have like to have seen some more contemporary corps portrayed.  But
nevertheless, his print was truly breathtaking and I admire it on my wall
daily.  I had one question though, on the artist's credits, there was mentioned
a hidden fish symbol (spiritual) in all of his works.  Has anyone been able to
find this mark in the print?      I appreciate your help.

	Hi everyone.  I just got back from vacation and I picked up the 
music we are playing this summer.  We are going to play a piece called
"Rocky Point Holiday."  I heard that Garfield played it in '82 and in '83, so
I want to get a copy of '82 and '83 finals on audio tape.  Can anyone help me
out?  Does CBC still sell their 82-87(?) repertoire CD?  Can I get their 
mailing address of some sort?  Thanks.

I think you are talking about the sopranos.  They do have an extra note 
before the rest of the section comes in.  That is not a mistake, but 
there is a mistake in the opener right before the four count silence and the
big hit in the middle of the Overture.  I always cringe when I hear the
euph hold over.

Since this is supposed to be from the updated list, I wanted to ask a  
quick question.  Are there any Madison Scout people out there who can tell  
us what the third piece they will be doing is?!  Nobody seems to know for  
sure.  I've heard rumors that even though Remembrance was supposedly  
canned, that it might be brought back.  If it's not, can someone tell us  
if they know anything about this "original composition?"

   I have one little thing to point out about this print however.  Where it lists
the previous winners of championships, the Cadets are listed as the Cadets even
when they were still called the Garfield Cadets.  This practice was not done in
the 1992 championships program however, as the Cadets were listed as Garfield or
the Cadets depending when they won.  This leads be to believe that calling the
Cadets, the cadets was a mistake.


   I am sure no one REALLY cares, as the print does look gorgeous.

	the fireworks display, with the launching point only a few yards north

Sounds like the drill team member who didn't believe me when I told her
not to be less then a yard in front of me and my t-bone at the end of a
formation.

She (actually, her shoulder) learned the hard way.  The trusty ol' Yamaha
Industrial-Strength (tm) t-bone suffered only minor damage.

What a workhorse that horn was.  Another time, I set it down on a sideline
during a practice break (dunno why, I usually kept it with me at all times)
and walked downfield to confer with another member of the section.  Noticed
a basketball (from who knows where :-) ) arc over my head in a very
suspicious direction, and turned just in time to see said ball land square
on my t-bone slide, bouncing the horn into the air and creating a very nice
arc in the slide.  Unfortunately, the curve wasn't uniform, so the slide
was now locked in place (those of you with CAD/CAM can probably draw this,
others will have to visualize).  Time for a field repair.  Took the slide
off the horn, placed it over my knee, and gently convinced it to resume
its former shape -- worked just as good as before, which is to say not
well, but good enough for the field :-).

Is the Meditation the same as Medea's Dance of Vengence or are these different
songs?  Earlier rumor said Star was doing the Dance of Vengenece.  Is thats

Hi!!

I just got back from the latest Star camp and I have a few bits of info
to share with you all.  This weekend, we got the very beginning of the
show, the Meditation in "Medea".  Jim Prime's arrangement is virtually
the same as the original, with some of the repitions cut out.  My friend
and I were talking to Jim Mason last night and he said that he wants Medea
to start out at 196 the first contest - pretty damn fast.  He said that 
he really wants it at about 210 by finals.  To put that into perspective,
the end of the 1992 show was about 208.

Mr. Mason announced a couple of "preseason" appearances that Star will
appear in.  In February, Star will be playing at halftime of the
Indiana - Purdue basketball game.  And in April there is a spring
concert at the Indiana University auditorium along with a couple of
corps (I forget).  That weekend, the Canadian Brass are in town and
are giving us a seminar/clinic.  We also get free tickets to their
concert.  I can't wait!!

it, tell me and I will post it.

The weather cut some of our rehearsal time short.  Last night, there was a 
lot of freezing rain, so they moved the camp from the convention center
in town to the corps hall.  Needless to say, it was a mad house in 
there.

Well, I better get going.

Later

Rob

I can't help but wonder if there's a football notes group talking about
"band kills".   Remember the college game where the band rushed onto the
field during the last seconds of the game, only to discover that a running
back was plowing his way through them for the winning touchdown, taking out
several band members along the way.

   Me too!

On that fine Saturday afternoon when Northwestern established the
record major-college losing streak (39?), the crowd took the field
during our post game performance.  A few bold ones ran through the
ranks on their way to tear down the north goal post, after which we
closed ranks from 8 steps spacing to 4.  But as the knotted mass of
people came southward across the field, carrying the goal post toward
the stadium gate (on its way to a dunking in Lake Michigan), they
looked pretty unhappy, and pretty determined to simply plow us over as
we stood gamely playing a reprise of the halftime show.

So the Sousaphones moved to the crowdward side of the band and rolled
their instruments forward, so that the bells were in front, horizontal
and nearly touching each other.  And the flags stood just behind, with
the bottom of each staff sticking out between the Sousaphone players.
We looked like a Greek phalanx battle formation.  Everyone put on the
meanest look we could, and the crowd veered around the band.

Maybe we should have given them the field after all...

This reminds me of the last time we did the full out symphony gig. The Dubuque
Symphony does a 4th of July concert, the Colts do a standstill before, then
join the symphony in a finale...that year Stars & Stripes. After the pointless
rehearsal (the symphony director gave our arranger a score in the wrong
key...then was mad at us!!! Sheesh) we decided to fake it the best we could,
which was the best since it was to dark to read the music that late at night
anyway.
We started the song, and the fireworks began. *Chunk* *chink* *clunk* *ting!*
All the debris from the fireworks were falling ON us. The symphony was
conveniently under a tent. It was quite the finale as we ducked debris and
faked Stars and Stripes in the wrong key. 
In '92 we just did the standstill, and stayed to watch the fireworks from a
safe distance!
