2008 Drum Corps summer winding down

Congratulations to Phantom Regiment for claiming their first outright title. 'Tis about time. Four consecutive years in 2nd, The Tie in '96 -- I was there. It was heart-warming to be in the front row 45 as Phantom won in Bloomington, IN. Blue Devils A and B. I felt your pain. Congrats to Santa Clara Vanguard Cadets for overtaking BD B.

Now, I'm on my way to the DCAssociates Championships in Rochester, NY, this Labor Day weekend. Come check out fun drum corps. Get your tics, www.dcacorps.org . The Empire Statesmen are celebrating their 25th anniversary, and David Bruni still has 'em entertaining just like Mr. B did. Say "hi" in Rachacha!
