... The performers, staff, supporters and the countless other folk involved at either corps or organizational levels work thanklessly sometimes for hours and hours. This year was a little different for me, I haven’t seen a single corps perform, not even so much as a rehearsal! ...
These are my thoughts about each corps (open class only I’m afraid) and how “I” interpreted their shows respectively. ... Some true drum corps classics in there, Malaga and Birdland to name just a couple. ...
Thank you guys, you had this old timer reminiscing what Drum Corps were about when I were a lad. ... All in all the corps did a good job in my opinion, and I have to say I thought the drum line was fantastic (not that I know anything about Drumming! ...
6th Place – The Forgemen
Now, before you say it, those of you who know me will be aware that I am connected to this corps as an ex staff member and now act purely as the webmaster. ...
I think on reflection the judges may have deemed the demand on the corps was a little high at the moment and this is where the corps lost out. ...
The opener started with the entire corps (with the exception of the pit) on the right hand side of the field, using their large numbers very well from a GE point of view. ... They were integrated very well throughout the corps and complimented the musical selection very well. ... Their brass book seemed very complicated in places with some very nice runs, and the power the whole corps put out on park and blows was quite incredible for a corps of that size! ... From the warm up on the field to exiting the field I could not take my eyes off this corps. ... A paragraph from the corps own website sums it up for me
All the Senators precision and attention to detail will still be there, but after taking serious, dark Drum corps about as far as they could; the corps now thinks it is time to concentrate on the performance and the performer.
