Season Finale in Buffalo, NY

Well..the season is over for 2010--only championships remain. The corps scored well last night as they did in Allentown and Lawrence so they are feeling strong going into finals. The Buffalo show is really excellent. Great venue (Bills Stadium) and the hosts really do a fine job. Our housing site for the last several years is Matt Winans' High School in Medina, NY. Medina is a small town with lots of rural New York attributes and is a perfect practice site.

We leave tonight for a layover day in Warsaw, OH and then on to our Finals housing in Delphi, IN. Zac is back on the field as a sideline conductor as of last night, and is able to finally get around without the crutches.

A few last minute clean-ups and equipment tweaks and we are into the quarter finals. If you haven't had the opportunity to see a quarter-final show at a local theater, they are really high quality and well produced. This year, they will cover the top 17 corps onThursday night starting at about 6 or 6:30PM. The top 12 will be simulcast in entirety so get a ticket and enjoy the madness at home!

I'll have a few more pictures up in the next few days including the removal of my beard--yes the Sasquatch-on-a-pit-gator-look is going away. I pledged that if the corps broke 90 score or finished 6th or above at finals, I would go clean-face. Film at eleven.....
