Hi, I'm 32, and I run MML out of my kitchen (and occasionally my couch).

I marched snare in Pioneer from '92 to '94, back when we were Division II & III.

Also, I have a day job as an internal web developer at a startup tech company in the global freight industry. I design and build web applications that help people do their jobs.

All of my other stuff (art, games, etc) is at joelesko.com

hello Joe,

I just wanted to let you know I think everyone will be willing to take the more time to write a show with more marchers. I found that after the first show with them it was back to normal.

here are the Blast numbers...they are just an estimate though. i posted them on that torum topic but just incase you didnt see them here they are

my first guess of about 30 was wrong. excluding aux pit...im gonna guess around 50 ish? i looked on line and wathed some videos to get an estimate:
Drumline: 2 snares, 2 tenors, 4 basses (well actually two marchers, the basses are stacked)
Brass: im guessing 30. looks like 12 soprano, 12 baritone/mellophone and 6 tubas
color guard: around 12 maybe more...
just a few ideas too. maybe have a side ensemble in the back or what not..and like the guard could have options of 1-2 flags, rifles, or sabers and like you could have them switch in the show. just somw food for thought though. i dunno what is hard to do and what isnt lol
thanks for everything you do!

Hey, I was wondering if we could talk about something reffering to the competitions. It is nothing criticizing. It is an idea that needs approval. I would rather talk about it in private. Here is my e-mail
sbfny93@hotmail.com E-mail me please so we may talk about my plans and ideas for a competiton.

Hey Joe I was wondering, I have some old things posted and I want to post some new ones but I don't want to clog up the forum with all my stuff, so you can close all of them under WIP Feedback since I haven't had much success. I also wanted to get YOUR feedback on the ability of changing your drum color since it seems that I am getting some good feedback. Thanks Joe! YOUR MY HERO!

I appreciate your kind praise of my 4th Circuit show. That means a great deal to me. Thank you for this wonderful site.

Thank you for giving me feedback. As a matter of fact I wrote most of the show backwards, got to the stair stepping move and found myself nearly out of sets. I wouldve added a set in between the company front and last set of stairs but as it was I had to shorten the stair-stepppig move already. Muchas gracias Senor.

I ordered a shirt and it's beautiful by the way. But I don't have access to the extra marchers quite yet. The last name on the order should be Fackrell. Thanks Joe!

So I just got results from the latest show, and I pretty much owe it to your "Fonts" thread.

And Nathaniel Hawthorne, course.

Thanks!

Competition Question:
Can I have more than three posts for my "Survivor: MML" competition, as we esentially have a new competition each week?

Thanks,
