Re: Men of Brass Open House 11-18-07

Ken ("Mouse") Fligelman reports that the MOB "Open House" was a huge success - 30+ horns, 14+ drummers, 5 rifles and many Guard, as well as MANY friends.

Over abundance of food stuffs. Introduced Drum Corps "Hall of Famer" Donnie Allen (East Coast) new horn instructor/writer and two new songs. What a "jam session".

Unfortunately, NO new Norwood alums came to visit!
Hope that this will change in the future!
