Well, if you haven't guessed already, the site's closed up. It was a lot of fun the past couple years, and I'm sorry I never got it going this year. I actually considered working on SRDL2003 today. Since marching season is over, though, and it looks like we'll have a concert percussion ensemble in the Spring instead of a true drumline, I don't think there's much reason to at this point.

>> Now, as a salute to my "Back in the Day," here's a look at the layouts from the past years of the site. There was a big improvement planned for this year... did you like the banner as you came in? Ah, here's the site's original form, from 2001. Actually, I didn't have much to say, hence the tiny window. The site opened into a small window and had bascially 2 graphics, used in various ways. What would now fall under "Fun Stuff" was no more than a few "Drumline Vs." features... Some updates also did not sound very nice, looking back, which I feel sorry for. And here's the spiffy 2002 layout... pretty slick and simple. I almost would have continued using it, but I decided to keep up the evolution, if I had kept the site going. It used new graphics, html bars, and added a photo album and the forum... the forum didn't quite work. A "Lil' Paul Says..." section was going to be added, but plans were dropped after Lil' Paul's arrest late last year. Oh, the memories. <<

Now now, don't be sad... with any luck, this isn't the end of the Official Scarlet Regiment Drumline Site. Just because I'm a lazy punk senior doesn't mean the new folks can't pick up the slack. If any of you guys feel like working on this, just talk to me or Travis and I'll get you hooked up with the password and stuff.

So that's about it. Thank you for supporting the drumline. Now, click here, and head on over to the band site... drop us a line in the forum or the guestbook.

Have a spiffy day.
