DCI Drum Corps Auditions 2012

It’s drum corps audition season again! Dust off those tuners and metronomes. It’s time to study some audition packets. We’ve followed DCI’s lead and compiled a list of audition camps/open houses around the country.

Have you marched and/or auditioned before? What advice can you give to first-timers? Let us know in the comments way down bottom.
