sounds like my pathetic line... they've seen blast. they've been to DCI competitons. we have an instructor from DCI and she can motivate them but no one else has so far. we also had a guy from the madison scouts do our drum camp one year, i thought he was great, but it didn't motivate them. i think that when some hs drummers that are so unmotivated and uneducated see a DCI line and are just blown away. we've even went the other way so to speak and tried harsh discipline. this showed the worst results and made the line unruly... and it still is from it a little. i'm sure you could motivate them, but i don't know how. i think half the line is just in the band to be in it and not take another class.
