Dear Reader, Now that we are close to heading into the 2022 season next month, hopefully the general concern with COVID is behind us for this 50th anniversary season of Drum Corps International. The reality of the 20 junior corps and 12 all-age corps pulling off a successful season this past summer is to be commended, as all the corps were protected in their individual “bubbles.” The magazine has concluded volume 50 and the April edition began the 51st year of continuous publishing. I’ve owned Drum Corps World for 48 years now and it’s been my privilege to bring news, history and a wide variety of content to readers literally all over the world during the last five decades, along with a variety of history books, CDs and DVDs preserved or produced to celebrate the last 101 years of history. I’m very proud of the variety of material I have been able to showcase from upwards of 350 different staff members who have contributed articles, show reports, features, interviews and yearly photography that captured nearly every junior, senior/all-age, parade and standstill organizations in every corner of the world of drum and bugle corps! Onward . . . |
