Be sure to watch the Mandarins. =D The summer was fun. But, personally, I liked the Cadets show, and I love how Phantom Regiment used "marching drums". Not like snares, tenor, and bass, I mean in the pit, the wooden drums on the sides are called marching drums, and sound like a machine of marching men.

The wooden rack with a bunch of wooden blocks hanging down from it? I've always heard that referred to as a "marching machine."

First time I can remember hearing it in drum corps was in the 1993 Cadets' show.

Check out SCV '91 - Miss Saigon...the "machine" to the visual was a great fit!
