I know a trombone player that used to tour with the other show "shockwave" is what I believe it's called.

The "red!" girl is teaching color guard at a school in my area.

One of my coworkers supposedly made it to the final two tubists in an audition, but was turned away because he was too skinny.

I went to Ithaca College with Mason Daffinee, Aaron Vogel and Amy Sanchez who each did Blast at some point. I believe Mason and Amy may still be with them (at least they were when I saw them in Birmingham, AL).

I just attended the grad recital at the Manhattan School of Music for the trombone player who rode the unicycle during "Officer Krupke." Great player, can't remember his name though, went with a friend who knows him.

I haven't been in it but they played my arrangement of "Carol of the Bells" in London supposedly, and I'd really like to hear a recording if one exists. I also sat in with them on trumpet when they did the "Blast of Power" in Orange County. That's when they get together after a show and play the music again with as little taste as possible. Some good notes came out that night, and I wish I could see the video of it.

Ryan McGeorge, now a marine band eupher, visits the site every once in a while..

He did BLAST, I think starting in 2001--for a year or two.
