July 29 - 31 Atlanta




Our housing for the Atlanta show was at Temple Middle School, Temple GA. A very large school for a middle school. A great set up for us with a couple of fields, kitchen and cafeteria...and very good weather!

Nearly two full days of rehearsal was something we hadn't had in a while. Time was spent cleaning the show, with considerable emphasis on the opener. Frank Dorritie, a drum corps icon who is also very active in the recording industry spent time with the corps during our stay.

Saturday's show was a big one, with every world class corps in attendance. Our work in Temple paid off as it was the best show of the season, and both staff and members were very happy with the effort and the performance.

After our performance, a sudden downpour occurred as the members were walking back to the buses (it is about a 15 minute walk). As a result, much of the next day was spent drying uniforms and clothes that had been soaked in the downpour.

We are in Ohio for the next couple of days, with a show in Centerville on Monday.
