MAGGIORE CACCA


My good friend Jim from Cincinnati (Ohio – USA) loves onions and red peppers… Just to let you know why he regularly comes up with the “maggiore cacca” expression.

I met Jim a number of years ago in the States when I was there to attend the DCI Championships. Since then our paths cross every summer, usually in Indianapolis and at DCI Championships, wherever they are held. Our reunions are always great! What a fun character!

Always enjoy meeting him. Too bad we live so far away from each other!
Jim is our (Jubal’s) biggest fan in the States! He loved our performances during our 2002 USA Tour, especially the concert we gave at Capitol Square in Madison.
Last summer during our second USA Tour he even enjoyed our show and performances and entertainment value a great lot more than most of the top DCI corps! How ’bout that!

He and his wife Jo-Ann travel to Europe every year. Unfortunately we only missed each other by one day in Paris last week. He had left in Wednesday, I arrived on Thursday, but we were able to meet “halfway” in Brussels on Mother’s Day. They came by TGV, I drove. Only took about an hour and 15 minutes to get to Brussels Midi station.

Spent a fun few hours in Brussels with them. Mainly visited churches, the Market Square at City Hall, and bought some olives at the market. Obviously Manneken Pis was included in our walk through the city center!

Enjoy,

HK
