DCI 2011 Update and Video

I had every intention to check out the DCI show in Dayton this past week but after viewing the weak performance lineup online I decided it just wasn't worth the drive. So I'm kind of bummed I probably won't be seeing any DCI shows in person this season. To cheer myself up I watched some online videos. Thank goodness for YouTube! Here are a few of my faves.

Also, I would appreciate your help in a design contest I've entered. Vote for me here: http://apps.facebook.com/dassault-catia/profile/150.html Thanks! I appreciate the support.

Goofy Jams On Drums at Walt Disney World Resort

I got a kick out of today's Disney Parks Blog video. This time it's Goofy showing off his unique drumming skills during the 2011 Vex Robotics World Championship at the ESPN Wide World of Sports Complex. Check it out – even the JAMMitors were surprised. This video really reminds me of something, I wonder where they got the idea?
