"Innovation on it's most crude level."

Hey guys, I'm Thumper, I'm part of The Brunswick Marching Blue Devils from Brunswick Ohio.
I'm a fan of the Bluecoats, Phantom, Glassmen, and the Blue Devils (seeing as how we use their old uniform design) I'm a HUGE fan of WGI drumlines, esspecially Matrix, North Coast Academy, RCC, and Music City Mystique.
I've found that i'm a much better designer for drums than full corps. But I was one of the first to do the Contra-only shows . . . woot.

Currently working on: Delineation Mvt. 2 (Amorphous)

I love that you refer to them as "parental units". That made my day. LOL!

Thanks for that fact...I never knew drumlines march that fast too.

Its called "Reflections", with "Shadow Rituals" by Michael Markowski, "Be Thou My Vision" by David Gillingham and "Fantasia in G" (which is a variation of ode to joy) by Timothy Mahr. The show is nowhere near complete in regards to effect. If you listen carefully to the music there's a bunch of palindromes (things that are the same backwards as they are forwards) and drill wise theres a bunch of symmetrical sets. It's about the transformation of a person from bad to good (and possibly bad again... to fit with the whole palindrome idea). Eventually the guard will be changing uniforms throughout the show (start out black and get lighter). We're hopefully going to add a plume change during the show as well. I was suprised today when I found out as that in prelims we were .3 out of second place while in finals we dropped a whole 3 points. Oh well I'm not a judge lol

Our director didn't want us to for whatever reason. We all wanted to meet and congratulate everyone. We all felt really really bad because it made us look like jerks and sore losers (which of course was not the case). There were however, some people that came up to us and said "Wow, I wish our band could be as disciplined as you guys!" Did you get to see our show?

Congrats on making finals!

Aww I'm sorry to hear that. We just had the best rehearsal in a month. Just come out of there with no regrets. And if you end up watching finals instead, remember to root for Lake Park!

I just posted a show on "Blocks" - from the thread that I created challenging people to be creative and try something new... it was a LOT harder than I thought. Check it out in the judges cue (or after it's finished being scored).

Can't wait to see them, Thumper!

awesome... I like recording and stuff like that, but I'm more interested in composition and education... how long have you been in the boy scouts?
Sam Doss 4 months ago
hey, this might seem random, but I was just wondering what you plan to do after high school?
Test123 4 months ago
Yea totally. NOt that Rhythm X isn't good or anything. I just like RCC much more. Thats my SoCal bias. lol

But in 2008, my favorite was AIMACHI!
Test123 4 months ago
I was starting to think that I was the only one who thought RCC should have beaten X. ><

THANK YOU!
