ONE OF THE BEST SEATS IN THE HOUSE

Glassmen during World Class Finals


I CANNOT COMPLAIN...

Once again I think I got one of the greatest views of the field in Lucas Oil Stadium tonight. I am joining Michael Boo (who does the live updates on the Championships for DCI and Lauren Vogel Weiss (writer for Modern Drummer magazine).

The official Press Box is way up in the stadium on the 6th level (nose-bleed seats), but has windows, so is definitely NOT GOOD from a sound-perspective point of view.

I also got invited to the Zildjian suite and the Stanbury suite, will stop there during intermission. Stanbury is making our corps' new uniforms for the 100th anniversary year 2011. I already got a sneak preview of the sample model. It looks amazing!

I will update with a bunch of photos no sooner than Monday. I will just sit back and enjoy the event tonight, then hopefully party after retreat (it would be a shock if Blue Devils don't take this year's title), go back to the hotel - party some more - work on some photos for Blue Devils - brunch at the Omni with BD members, staff and parents, and then I will get a ride to Michigan with Ron Cefalo (Blue Devils alumni 1972-1977). Will spend next week with my relatives in Grand Rapids/Kalamzoo. Should be a great time.

Will need to catch up on some missed sleep too!

Enjoy,
