Glad you enjoyed your first DCI show.
I got to see all the corps you listed in my town last night, and what a show they put on. The Cadets horn line this year is putting out more sound then they have in a long long time. It is going to be an interesting time come finals week, with alot of craziness going on in thetop 5 corps
The best part of the night for me was getting to see some good friends who play for them who I havent seen in 8 months.
Anyone who is even remotely considering auditioning for a corps, DO IT! No matter what happens, you will be a better person, and musician just for giving it a shot. I can guarentee you, you will make friends for life, and just come out stronger and better then you ever thought you could be!
(If anyone wants to hear some Cadets brass-line warm-ups, email me, or find me on AIM. )
