I was at the Chambersburg show the other day. Had a great time and got to introduce my 13 year old ballerina to DCI. She was very happy when she saw all the great looking guys! A little sad when I told her the situation was the same as the dance world- she will have to keep looking to find a straight man!But at least they are fun to look at!

I really enjoyed Crown and I actually loved the Cadets show. I will be able to make it to the Suffolk show and I may try to sneak in a few other shows..maybe Orlando...its a great excuse for another trip to see the mouse!

8:00PM "Pittsburgh show delayed 20 minutes for brutal parking and the wrong hash marks. For the record. I had nothing to do with any of this."

I'm going with a friend to see the corps warm up tonight in Dublin, Ohio. I think he's just going to recruit new members for his winterguard.

it's going to be tough competition between the top 5. after scv and bloo clean things up a bit, the top 7 will be smoking.

What a year this is shaping up to be!

I also love how Troopers are so close to top 12. I would die from happiness to see them make finals this year. I really enjoyed their 2008 show. It was fun.

Just got back from the Toledo show...

After an hour and a half rain delay the show finally started.

I liked just about every corps, but Holy Name blew me away! I know, more West Side Story, but this show has the potential to win! Gave me goosebumps and tears over the 10 minute run! Cavies have a nice show, but I dont see it in the top two. Boston was good, but nothing to write home about. I love Crossmen! The show was real dirty, but once they clean it it's gonna be nice! The entire corps is wearing capes this year! Glassmen were much stronger than in years past, and I hope they can finally break out of 11th place. I was hesitante about the use of the synthysisers this year, but from the corps I saw tonight I was pleased with the addition, and that shocks me being an old timer like I am.

Thats about it for now, I have a 7 hour drive ahead of me tomorrow, so off to bed!

Go see Holy Name if you can!

WGI as in WinterGuard International.... the huge colorguard competition in Ohio???

I was in the colorguard my freshman year of high school. I was in the B guard, saber line. And the other half was in A guard... which actually went into the next level because of the previous year. I've rarely found any one that ever knows anything about colorguard or the competitions. I would love to find video of my old high school's team now. I heard it went down the crapper a couple years after I left.... of course that was 10 years ago now.

Thanks for the update! I liked the Cavies music when I saw them last week in Rockford but now I am really looking forward to seeing Holy Name!

Enjoy a safe trip! My family and I are heading down to TN for a week on Sunday. I am so disappointed there isn't a show in Seiverville!

See you in Orlando!
