I met Russell at the Buffalo show on my way walking to see BD's show. I recognized him from Tumblr and started talking to him and we became friends! He's really cool and I learned a bit about him this summer! :D Umm I've never talked to Keatonpickles but I've seen him on tumblr a couple of times. I'm assuming he's a chill person though. Go Keaton.

Oh no, we have pride and values and respect of the corps too, hence why I have never once disrespected that corps. Saying I did not have quite the experience I planned for and knowing where the right place is, and intending to march there, I do not consider disrespect. Obviously you have not seen any of my other posts about my corps, where I spent about 20 minutes writing about the corps and what it stood for and what it gave to me as a person. I have never disrespected this corps. I just did not have the right experience. This does not mean I am not thankful, and I wouldn’t have wanted to start my drum corps experience anywhere else if I could do it again. And I am not the type of person to corps hop. I did not go into that corps thinking I would do one season and leave. But it’s like that, and it’s unfortunate, and I in no way intended for that to ever have to happen. I do respect this corps, I will forever support them and any members in whatever they do each season, I am thankful I was a member, and yes, we do have the same “pride,” “identity,” and “representation” standards as your corps. That being said, you know absolutely NOTHING about what my experience was like there, therefore you have NO reason to judge me or disrespect me, nor does anyone else. You are still young, and if you were ever to decide to switch corps someday for an experience to better suit you, I’d hope no one would disrespect you like that. Best of luck, now kindly go away.

Keaton: Ooooo

He reminds me of a teddy bear or something and who doesn’t like that haha. He gives good hugs and I just remember him randomly popping out of nowhere during San Antonio and finals haha
