Brigadiers Premier New Percussion at Barnum Festival

Central Square, NY (June 27, 2007) - The Brigadiers Drum and Bugle Corps is pleased to announce that under the corps' long-standing promotional agreement with Dynasty USA, the corps will unveil its new line of battery percussion equipment this Saturday, June 30, 2007, at the "Champions on Parade" in Bridgeport, Connecticut.

"We are thrilled to continue the corps' relationship with Dynasty and appreciate the support the company has afforded us in outfitting our percussion section over the years," said Corps Director Rick Martin. "The new instruments are really a sight to behold. We couldn't have asked for a better set of equipment to compliment our performance and competitive efforts in 2007."

Added Percussion co-caption head Rod Wills, "the members are very excited to perform on the new drums. They not only sound great, but the look is outstanding. Everyone will just have to come to Bridgeport to see them live and in person!"

The Brigadiers will present their 2007 "Images in Time" program this Saturday, June 30, at the "Champions on Parade," a Drum Corps Associates-sanctioned competition to be held in conjunction with the annual Barnum Festival in Bridgeport, Connecticut. The show starts at 6:00 p.m. at the J.F. Kennedy Stadium on Lincoln Boulevard. For more information, visit the Festival's website at http://www.barnumfestival.com/. We hope to see you there!

With roots dating to 1938, The Brigadiers Drum & Bugle Corps was reorganized in 1991 after a nineteen-year absence from competition. The Brigadiers are 5-time Drum Corps Associates World Champions, winning titles in 1997, 1999, 2000, 2001 and 2002, and are the only drum and bugle corps to ever win four consecutive DCA titles.
