[QUOTE=drachillix] Used to be back in my day it was not unknown to write drill for the"1 min warmup" and basically have DM turn, do his salute to the judges/announcment etc, and keep going. If anyone would like an β€œAsk the DCI Drum Major” I can probably get my old DM to pop in, I’m still in fairly regular contact with him.. [/QUOTE] Good lord, please do! πŸ™‚ ---

πŸ˜ƒ πŸ˜ƒ πŸ˜ƒ πŸ˜ƒ :D!!! Last night was amazing. I did feel a little bad for the kids in Blue Devils, because when the announcer said they were second place, the whole crowd started cheering like mad because it meant Phantom had won. But, well, I only felt a _little_ bad. Phantom also got the Spirit of Disney award, which is kind of hilarious because of all the violence in their show. πŸ˜ƒ [Previous page](https://boards.straightdope.com/t/any-drum-corps-geeks-here/459108.md?page=1)
