I wouldn't pay a dime to watch DCI band/corps anymore, but I'd pay $100 to watch any drum corps play like THIS.

Now, this is giving the 3rd Infantry a run for the medals!

@ThisgirlfromVA - Your Dad was definitely in there. He was a real mentor, and an overall great guy to the younger Marines.

I simply love this arrangement. Haven't been able to get it out of my head since I first came across this clip! What a gas!

Happy 235th Birthday to the United States Marine Corps.

The first time I saw this corps was in Madison, WI as the exhibition corps after an MBA event there. Amazing how powerful their relatively simple show was. Simply amazing! I see them whenever I can!

Another thing about these guys too. ALWAYS perfect lines & marching.
