They’re still planning on keeping Blessed Sacrament. I guess placing 4th is a wake-up call.

@medi-nerd.com The silly season has already started, I’m hearing changes at Blue Devils and Madison, but the Boston Crusaders are expecting their whole staff back.

John Filippone @jflip.bsky.social · 15/08/2026

I think Dan Koh will win the Massachusetts 6th. Congressional district congressional primary and will keep this a safe blue seat in the general election.

I don’t care how old Ed Markey is or if he uses a bed pain Seth Moulton can’t be trusted. Ed Markey has my vote for the US Senate.

@medi-nerd.com Streaming Flo with a Roku has solved all my buffering issues. Looking forward to the show today.

The horror on the faces of Walmart employees when 200 Drum Corps members and volunteers show up to a Walmart during Drum Corps season.

@medi-nerd.com It’s Boston Crusaders laundry and Walmart day.

John Filippone @jflip.bsky.social · 11/07/2026

Still never found out what happened to KP and I know he was fired sometime before San Antonio.

John Filippone @jflip.bsky.social · 13/06/2026

It’s a group effort but Leon May and Mike Townsend are the driving forces.

010

John Filippone @jflip.bsky.social · 13/06/2026

I saw the Boston Crusaders ensemble last night and the Drum Corps world is in for many new maneuvers and some really good drills. The defending champions look ready to defend their title.

John Filippone @jflip.bsky.social · 02/06/2026

@medi-nerd.com My prediction is the Boston Crusaders will repeat as DCI Champions.

Stealing the mid term elections is the only way Republicans can win which is why they’ve pulling all this nonsense. Make it too big to rig.

John Filippone @jflip.bsky.social · 01/02/2026

Both Blessed Sacrament Open and World Class Guards were excellent last night. It was a guard evaluation show so there were no scores announced.

010

John Filippone @jflip.bsky.social · 30/01/2026

With tomorrow’s storm continuing drifting out to see the Salem Ma. Winter Guard show should go on without a hitch.

People in Boston have lost their minds as people are at the supermarkets stocking up on food to last a month for a foot of snow.

Boston Crusaders had 31 Tuba players at this weekend’s callbacis. Talent level overall was exceptional.

John Filippone @jflip.bsky.social · 18/01/2026

Boston Crusaders contracting Dancers for their 26 production is wild. I guess you can pretty much do whatever you want when you win the Championship. This year’s show is mind blowing.

John Filippone @jflip.bsky.social · 18/01/2026

I believe in Drake Maye Go Pats.

John Filippone @jflip.bsky.social · 16/01/2026

Good luck to everyone attending a Drum Corps audition camp this weekend. Do your best and get that contract.

John Filippone @jflip.bsky.social · 15/01/2026

Boston Crusaders have more than enough volunteers for this weekend’s camp in San Antonio but are looking for volunteers for the April camp in Houston.

020

John Filippone @jflip.bsky.social · 12/01/2026

I got a kick of all the Downtown Boston last night during the Patriots game. Too bad Foxboro is 30 miles away from Boston and is closer to Providence RI.

John Filippone @jflip.bsky.social · 11/01/2026

Boston Crusaders have their last audition next weekend then thats it to April. Spring training will be here before we know it.

I’m blown away that Young and Restless let Rory Gibson leave. Micheal is killing it on GH.
