Comments on: Drum Corps Show of Shows goes on, in shorts, t-shirts and without judges http://blogs.e-rockford.com/sweenyreport/2009/06/20/drum-corps-show-of-shows-goes-on-in-shorts-t-shirts-and-without-judges/ The Sweeny Report takes you into the murky world of local, state and national politics. Political Editor Chuck Sweeny will try to de-mystify things for you -- once he figures it out himself, that is.

In a way I was disappointed - what happened to "drum & bugle"? There were bells, electric guitars, cello, full sets of drum's on stand's, thing's I've never seen before... One group used a tire rim! Bottle's partially filled with water or something. Overall I'm glad I went - was it worth the $22.50 per seat? I'm not sure. Sure would have been better without the rain.

I was truly disappointed in the Cavs and the Scouts. I must say I was also disappointed that Phantom didn't "dress" for their home crowd. Phantom is still #1 in my book!
