Wednesday July 29


The corps had a couple of productive days in Dayton OH. We stayed at Northridge School, great facilities, plenty of rehearsal space. Ken Hoffman, our host, was very hospitable and made sure everything was taken care of.

The show in Centervfille was delayed by 15 minutes due to a brief rainstorm. However, the show was held in a stadium with artificial turf so drainage was not an issue. The performance tonight was better than Sevierville, although the brass line did have a bit of a rough run. Plenty to work on in the next brass block.

Brass visuals were added in the ballad and will be refined tomorrow.

We did have 5 brass players out tonight, again, primarily as a precaution. Two of them were featured as part of a duet or a soloist. As a result, Louie Sosa did double duty tonight in playing through all these parts.

A long bus ride tonight (including bus 3, which has everyone who has had or presently has a fever -2 people), some floor time and rehearsal in preparation for Allentown and DCI East.
