An intelligent, co-authored blog dealing with Drum Corps and Marching Band. Friday, July 20, 2007. Uniform musings, Part 6 - New Uniforms in '07, Allentown edition. So, I have been a little late in getting this out due to some other factors, but without further ado, here are some thoughts on the new uniforms I saw in Allentown. Best "Surprisingly good" uniforms - Madison. The "To boldy go." award - Southwind. Posted by Joe Dacey. July 30, 2007 at 9:36 PM. Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom).

point two-five: Building a visual program from the ground up...(or how to stop worrying and love straight legs)
http://pointtwo-five.blogspot.com/2008/04/building-visual-program-from-ground.html
An intelligent, co-authored blog dealing with Drum Corps and Marching Band. Wednesday, April 9, 2008. Building a visual program from the ground up.(or how to stop worrying and love straight legs). Visually, there are two, and only two, things that separate the great visual groups from the bad - Timing. Hold the horn, it is the best way to think. About holding the horn because it makes the player focus on keeping the weight in front of them and they will automatically straighten their back. I must say I l...

An intelligent, co-authored blog dealing with Drum Corps and Marching Band. Thursday, March 27, 2008. Help out with the Drum Corps WIki Shows Project! So I'm kinda bored in the offseason, so one thing I like to do is got through my DVDs and watch a lot of shows. While doing this I try and find out everything I can about the shows as well as record my notes about them for future reference. Who was the Corps director at that time? Who wrote the Drill? Designed the Guard Uniforms? Here is a template. Vol 2:...

point two-five: The "Broken Windows" theory of marching bands.
http://pointtwo-five.blogspot.com/2007/08/broken-windows-theory-of-marching-bands.html
An intelligent, co-authored blog dealing with Drum Corps and Marching Band. Sunday, August 19, 2007. The "Broken Windows" theory of marching bands. The City of New York decided to heed the advice of criminologists subscribing to this theory and by the mid 90's, crime was at the lowest rate in 20 years. Now, how does this relate to marching band? Practically this means that instead of focusing on how much rehearsal time is scheduled, maybe you should focus on starting on time and following a schedule?

An intelligent, co-authored blog dealing with Drum Corps and Marching Band. Saturday, July 28, 2007. Tuning, a quick survey of different techniques. This came up in a DCP post and I thought it would be good to kind of expand upon this idea. From my point of view there are three different methods to approach tuning - electronically. I will survey each one as a separate method, however they are not exclusive methodologies - meaning a combination of the three can be effective as well. Posted by Joe Dacey.
