The final list of performers for the 2010 Edinburgh Military Tattoo in Australia has now been posted to the Tattoo's website. Check it out today.
The cast is truly global, stretching from the USA, the UK, Europe, Asia and of course Australia and neighboring New Zealand.
We finished our 3 day Sydney Drill Camp Weekend without a hitch - our cast members from several States as well as our two fifers from Basel, Switzerland gathered on Friday, 30 October at MITRE in Bedford, MA for a short rehearsal. Saturday, 31 October dawned sunny and WARM (approaching 70F), which was a relief for our outdoor drill session.
The group scattered for Halloween activities that night then were back at MITRE on Sunday, 1 November for another full session of music rehearsals and drill practice. Stay tuned for photos from the weekend and further updates on the Tattoo itself! Less than 90 days before we depart for Down Under!
Just 3 weeks before our big Sydney Music Camp Weekend and it is probably a good time as any to talk about the massive undertaking this event will be. MCV will appear in Sydney with 30 fifers, 12 drummers, Drum Major, Guidon and a full Color Guard, along with several intrepid Support staff.
What will it take to turn out the largest ensemble in MCV's history? Besides a great deal of preparation and rehearsal, the organization is drawing from the entire USA and our friends overseas. We have members, alumni members and remote members coming in from the following home states:
G'day Mates! MCV's first ever trip to Australia will not be until late January 2010 but preparations are well underway this Autumn in the Bay State. Drill Rehearsals start in September with all of our remote members flying in during Halloween weekend for the Sydney Drill & Music Camp. Stay tuned for further updates.
