I have been really enjoying watching the drum and bugle corps compete with eachother. I have now been to two shows: Louisville and Murfreesboro. The shows from each corps are packed with great music and marching. I am looking forward to next weekend (Friday and Saturday evenings) in Allentown, Pennsylvania. I have my tickets and am ready to go! From what I have read, Drum Corps International will not be broadcasting on cable this year so you can either catch them live or on the DCI website if you become a subscriber. Go to www.DCI.org and look it up.

Who are you going to root for? I know who I am rooting for. I’ll be posting another episode of Thom Takes On The World on iTunes tomorrow. I’ll be chatting about my favorite television shows and respond to your comments of my blog and podcast.

Your Nashville Friend,

Thom

In this episode, I chat about the beginnings of my interest in drum and bugle corps.  I have followed the activity now for over 30 years and always find it to be interesting and entertaining.  If you are near any of their competitions this summer, GO!  Find out where they will be and how to get tickets by going to either www.dci.org or to www.corpsreps.com for further information.  Monday is when I’ll be going to Louisville, Kentucky for my first dose of live drum corps competition!  I need my “fix”!  I’ll also be attending the events in Murfreesboro, Tennessee and Allentown, Pennsylvania.  If  you see me, stop by and say “hi”!
