I work sunday night, but I'll be sure to visit MK for the parade! I LOVE seeing a drum corps marching down main street. Sssoo much better than some of the marching bands that play(and march, if u wanna call it that LOL)

 

[zulemara]

so who wants to sit with me at the show? PM me for phone number

 

[bastianc24]

Yay Crown encore!

Stay away rain!

 

[OrlandoMike]

Yay Crown encore!

Boogie Wonderland!

And the shuttle has been scrubbed for tonight.

 

[bastianc24]

so according to dcp, encore is boston. *sigh*

 

[zulemara]

after evaluating my $$ situation, I decided I'm not going to the show tonight. I have tickets for Atlanta, so that will be my show for the year. I will have to take the free entertainment at MK for tonight.

Best of luck to all corps and Go Blue Stars!!!!

I couldn't make it to Orlando for the show tonight but a friend down there just called and said that it is raining with no end in sight. How sad!!!

But I am glad I didn't make the trip now!

the entire area has been on and off showers. I was hoping the show would still go on. I'm kinda glad I didn't go now...

 

[OrlandoMike]

It sucked! Rain for 2 hours, then it ended up being a standstill. I left after Sprit, just couldn't take it any more.

And to top it off I took a mystery dream date who had never been before! Oh well, the deal was a double date, and the second part is tomorrow night, so that should be a better evening!

The worst part is so much of the shows are written around the pit, and a standstill without the pit is just plain awfull.

Oh well, so much for that.

well by now they should be pretty good at standing and blowing Gotta love the rip your face off hornlines!

Unfortunatly, they came right up to the stands. Great for those in the lower level. We were in the upper level, the sound was not good at all because of the way the "stadium" is built. And when you factor in no pits, lots of dead time. Like I said, I had to leave after Spirit, even I couldn't take any more, it was just BAD!

And speaking of stadiums, are the supposed to leak like a sieve? Dear Lord there was more water under the stands than out in the open! That place needs to be imploded! I actually got pan handled on the way to the car! Heck, at least last year I got to hold a J while those nice BAC boys pushed us out of the mud!

 

[bastianc24]

Just got back from the show. I stayed the entire time. Pruney feet...ugh.

REALLY QUICK COMMENTS

Bluestars - Great mello line.

BAC - Nice surprise.

Phantom - Nice, but kinda disappointed.

Crown - AMAZING hornline. Wow.

Check out my facebook for a few, uhm, videos, hehe. Got Crown and Phantom.

 

[orlandomom]

Well, we paid only $10. to park and stand in the rain with BAC hornline and instructors Headed out about 9pm soaked So glad we didn't stay in line for tickets
might just have to do finals on Fan Network at friends media room

just me

Did anyone else notice Troopers beat the Scouts last night?

You mean, like, with baseball bats and tire irons?

 

[OrlandoMike]

You mean, like, with baseball bats and tire irons?

No with rifles and flags silly! Get with the program!

Where was that happening? At least it would have been SOMETHING to watch instead of the mind numbing "let's stand around underneath the bleachers for hours on end.

I feel horribly gyped. I was promised cute shirtless band boys and some fun marching band shows. I didn't see any marching.

. . . and only two cute shirtless guys.

Though there was this attractive fireman on duty . . . .

Is that why you crammed that funnel cake down your throat, threw yourself on the ground, and pretended to choke to death?

I was wondering what was up with that!

Did you get the powdered sugar off of your shirt?
