SO, if it's not common knowledge, we just had 5 snare, 1 tenor, and all 5 bass age out of the battery at Regiment. So, everyone should come audition in the winter it's the hardest I've ever had to work in a drumline, but obviously it was worth it based on our placement at finals. The corps is great, and Shane's design is pretty sick. We also had a lot of guest instruction:

Dr. Eric Willie - http://orgs.tntech.edu/percussionstudio ... illie.html
Dr. John Wooton - http://www.vicfirth.com/artists/wooton.php
Bret Kuhn - http://www.innovativepercussion.com/pag ... .asp?id=10

Message me if you want to ask any further questions, but I would highly recommend that anyone that wants the summer of a lifetime go audition for Regiment.

Phantom is my dream corps and 5 snares are aging out? If I can find a ride I will definitely be auditioning for them next year. Probably just gonna audition for the experience though, just one camp with Gwaltney is like a dream for me!

Marching Phantom is my biggest dream but money and travel distance is what's holding me back... Florida is a long way from Illinois.. I age-out in 2016 so I have time I guess.. would love to play quads, but heck I would pick up a baritone just to be in Phantom. lol

Would love to know what the auditions are like..?

I'm probably gonna carpool with my friend who plays bass drum since she heard that all 5 basses are aging out. I mean, its pretty far away from North Carolina but not as far away as i could be. I've decided that now I am definitely going! Thanks for the post!

I was talking to one of Phantom's trumpets when they came through my town for a few days before Allentown and he told me about all the bass age-outs. Too good to be true. If only I wasn't so far away. Definitely hoping to find a way though.
