The director of the 1st year corps Motor City Cadets, Mr. Painless, is very excited to start the season, with their show-

Tales of Middle Earth:Music from The Lord of the Rings
in 3 movements:

Mvt. I: Medley(Main Theme)
Mvt. II: Twilight and Shadow & May it Be
Mvt. III: Minas Morgul & The Return of the King

"The entire staff has been very excited to be playing The Lord of the Rings. It makes it fun to play fun and familiar music the fans will enjoy(hopefully)," said Painless in an exclusive interview.

Member Tally is as follows:
Sopranos:20
Mellophones: 16
Baritones:14
Euphoniums:14
Contras:14
Snares:9
Tenors:4
Basses:5
Front Ensemble:11
Guard:25

We'd also like to annouce our newly-hired Percussion Caption Head: TIM JACKSON!!!!
Sorry Washington D.C. Scandals, but if he can be every staff member for yours, he can be one of mine


MCC was recently sponsored by Dynasty, so the corps now uses their brass and percussion instruments.

Bad news from the MCC front:

Yesterday, an assassination attempt was made at corps director Mr. Painless's life. Fortunately, he is alive and will recover before the season gets into full swing. Here is a picture of the assassin. If anyone knows his whereabouts, please contact the police or the enraged Mr. Painless.

No dude, we would do our own assassainations... we would never be cowardly by going through some lousy cat. Anyway, we don't need to have assassains... we're going to win anyway. Why possibly face murder/attempted murder charges for nothing?

So the Hurricanes' show is so bad that the corps hires assassins to take the spotlight off of the show's horridness and place it on another corps' director's near-fatal wounds?

Are you reading our posts?! Allow me to reiterate- Hurricane does NOT hire assassins! We do NOT try to divert attention away from our show! Our show contains no horridness... we have a camp this weekend; you ought to stop by and see for yourself. (As a bonus, we won't even try to kill you... see the aforementioned explanation!)

For Immediate Release:

As you may be aware, there has been an assassination attempt on the Motor City Cadets' director Mr. Painless. There have been serious allegations outing the Hurricane Drum & Bugle Corps for being responsible in this senseless act of violence. A top consultant to the DLOFDC Executive Commitee known only as Monkeyman commented "This corps is under investigation. As you know, the FDC has a strong stance on issues like these. No corps is allowed to have felines as members."

Well I'm glad I don't need to worry about it, seeing as our corps name is HURRICANE Drum and Bugle Corps. Just think of the potential repercussions had I made our name plural like he said! People might get confused. What a close call!

Hey! Who's been deleting my defensive posts?! And the incorrect pluralizations that you had?! WTF?!?!?!

This just in:
DLO is conspiring against Hurricane Drum and Bugle Corps. Hurricane is currently deciding whether or not to file a lawsuit. See corps thread for more details.

EDIT: Are you aware that the director of Pineapple Monkey's name is "Assassassin"? Given how people spell, and given that there is a small furry mammal's name in the name of the corps, I think you may have the owner of your attempted murderer right there...

OK, Hurricanes are going to love this breaking news story:
"After my personal investigation into the assassination, I have discovered that the assassin was NOT the feline member of the Hurricanes, but a crazed lunatic cat, who claimed he did what he did because 'I was a communist'. We have discovered his name, which is none other than JOSEPH MCCARTHY!! AHHHH!! RED SCARE 2!!!!!" - Mr.Painless, corps director of the Motor City Cadets drum and bugle corps.

Sorry, but I just got done with AP history lol.

After detectives got Cat-toni to talk, we got a warrant for the arrest of one of the higher ranking members of this underground gang of felines, Al Catone.

When Catone got the knock on the door from detectives, he got spooked and barricaded himself in a bedroom with a gun. We were able to grab this picture using the security system on the premise.



Negotiations continue...

Filling all of the following positions:
Brass arragnement and instruction, percussion arrangement and instruction, color guard instruction, drill instruction, and drum major....will be GREG COLE! "If I was in charge of everything, nothing would go wrong!"-Greg Cole, battery tech for ADL and MCC.

A word of the director, Mr.Painless:
"Everyone in the corps, the director included, is excited for our first show, which is unknown yet because of the inability for the director to pick a schedule yet. But, whenever it is, we're going to have a great show. The music of Tolkien's saga is sounding amazing on a football field, and hopefully the judges think so too!"

The Motor City Cadets are not in "Division IV" as DLOFDC does not use Roman numerals - We have Division 4. In fact, you are not in any division right now, as you have yet to be assigned one. Thank you, drive through.

Our first show is June 16th, in Oswego, IL!! Everyone is pumped up! But we've still got a lot of polishing to do. We're looking forward for some "healthy" competition with the Hurricanes and Chucky Cheeze(dont ask me why...), as well as the ever-silent Master Chiefs!

After a ridiculously fun and occasionally scorching Memorial Weekend at America's Roller Coast, Cedar Point, corps director Mr.Painless has finally established his schedule, with first show in Oswego, IL!

"The whole corps is ready for some competition! They want to see how they compare to the other competitors in Division 3, especially the Hurricanes and Chucky Cheeze. We're going to blow the pants off of our audience with our opening tune.(That was for Kama Sutra :P ) It is crucial that you don't lose momentum at the end of the show, and that you have to push until the end! Hopefully MCC can give Division 3 a run for their money." -Mr.Painless

Announcing the pre-Tour celebration of the Motor City Cadets, who will spend the entire day at none other than CEDAR POINT, AMERICA'S ROLLER COAST! I, like the director of Chucky Cheeze, feel the corps members should have fun and bond together, so that they can enjoy working together and improving our show.

Although it won't be added to the show for some time, our arrangers are currently writing a percussion feature! It'll be played in between the ballad and closing tune.

"As a drummer, I want to see my drumline shine, not pushed to the back like some marching bands will do. The feature will have the effect of showing the looming battle of Minas Tirith ahead, and we'll be experimenting with "war-drum" like sounds. I guarantee it'll be a hit with everyone!" -Mr.Painless, director of MCC.

Because of the mismatch with our theme, and because of the horrible problems experienced with our current uniforms, Motor City Cadets will be exchanging their current purple and gold uniforms for new black, blue, and gold uniforms, with the same style hat. Pictures to follow soon!

Latest News Flash:

Entire MCC Corps invited to fireworks show/sexy party by a certain Ms.Messina, known for having notoriously crazy parties! Everyone in the corps was highly entertained at the party, and the director Mr.Painless is hoping that it will raise their spirits enough from their last couple of shows' placements to make them want more than just 3rd or 4th place!

Incredible! Mr.Painless couldn't be more proud of the MCC right now.
"We had a very long and tough practice, refining even more of the show. After improving on nearly everything, the corps saw how their hard work pays off, with a first place underdog victory over Chucky Cheeze. Yes, Chucky Cheeze and MCC are friendly, but we all enjoy a little competition." -Mr.Painless

Man, is there some tight competition here in glorious Division 3! We have Chucky Cheeze in a dominating lead by approx. 1 point, and then 2nd-6th are spread out by less than 1 point. With a current 6th place ranking, Mr.Painless is satisfited, but still wants more.
"I know being in the top 6 is very good, but I still want more from the corps, because I know and they know that they have the ability to be right up there with Chucky Cheeze and Central in the Top 3. I'm very excited for Mankato, MN, today!"

They are not tied. MCC is currently in First Place and Chucky is currently in Second Place.

Please RTFM (The Handbook) before you get your panties in a bunch. If you're going to participate, you should at least know the rules, eh? Thank you, drive through.

The end of the season is approaching fast! We've got around 10 shows left before World Championships, and now's the time to fine tune our show even more.
"I'm being amazed each and every rehersal by my corps. They continue to drive to achieve even greater heights, and a lot want to break the tie between the Motor City Cadets and Chucky Cheeze."

The Road to Madison
It's amazing how quickly things can change in drum corps. In one night, the MCC have gone from being behind .25 points to ahead by a VERY narrow lead of .05 points! Corps Director M. Painless said earlier:
"I'm going to have to push the corps and they're going to have to push themselves past their limits if we hope to take the gold in Madison this week. Chucky Cheeze and Hurricane are both very good corps and could very well overtake us, which is why we're going to have to work our rear-ends off. I'm confident that we can take home the gold though, and there's a good chance we will."

Congrats on tying Chucky Cheese for second! Hurricane had kind of an off show at finals, but we consider our season successful. Way to go! We definitely should have that party, maybe we could include Central too and have it be a top 4 party.
