Check it our Holmes.

Go march this summer, and look at how hard Cavies bust your butt.

If you don't want to fly more than how hard you get pushed to win finals this summer, you don't want to fly, because you're going to have to sacrifice more, and you're going to have to want it more. I never marched a Div. I corps, but if it's anything like PIW, the drive you need to do this is WAY more than what I ever put into GLP, and I spent 36 hours a weekend drumming, plus a few hours a day during the week. In short, I never practiced that hard in my life and it pales in comparison to what you need to do to do this gig.
