    The young man below is a staple at Southern California games and does [what I imagine English Bloke would call] a crackin' job. I seem to recall somebody IDing him in another photo thread but "recall" is not my strong suit these days.

    Just giving young Brodie some intermediate goals!

    Proudly Duncan [maternal], MacDonald and MacDaniel [paternal].

    Ochh, the skirl o' the pipes sends a wee shivver doon yer back!

    Speaking of Junior Drum Majors...

    Clipped from my thread about "the worlds" in Glasgow this year. It would appear young Brodie is not alone.

    Edit: Yup, crackin' job about sums it up. Anything that give kids positive focus is a good thing.
