Taguig Renegade DLC (TR) was founded in 1998 at Tenement Elementary School - Annex (currently Kapitan Eddie T. Reyes Integrated School) in Barangay Pinagsama Village, Taguig City, Philippines. The corps was founded by Benedict Gualvez, a grade school teacher from the same school, and was handled by Noel Dela Cruz when Benedict Gualvez suffered an unexplained death during sleep (heart attack or stroke). Noel Dela Cruz led the corps for about a month and then decided to pass on the responsibility as Band Master to his cousin Joseph Querubin (also the Band Master of Maybunga Drum and Lyre Corps in Barangay Maybunga, Pasig City) because of plans to work abroad. ==Active Years== TR's first competition was the Barangay Bagong Ilog Pasig City Fiesta. The corps was composed of students in only grades three through six, and they competed with other corps whose members were 15 years old and above. TR didn't expect to win the competition, but luckily took third place. Seven months later, TR entered another competition in the Barangay Ugong Pasig City Fiesta. TR joined Class B and was crowned as the champion, with Sta. Rosa Laguna DLC taking second place and Sagad Escapades DLC taking third. Since the TR corps joined various competitions all over Metro Manila, it has earned several minor and major prizes and has been frequently invited for fiesta celebrations and some musical events. In 2000, TR joined the very first National Drum and Lyre Competition, organized by the Drum and Lyre Corps Association of the Philippines Inc. (DLCAPI) and held in Marikina City, and was crowned champion. In the next year's national DLC competition, TR was named "Back-to-Back Champion", and in the third year, the corps was still strong and was named "Grand Slam Champion". After that year, the group was disbanded due to the members' need to focus on their studies and personal lives. After the third competition, DLCAPI was no longer active, and one of its officers pursued another competition for the fourth time. Most of the corps did not join the said competition, and TR supposedly would not be joining; however, it had to compete as defending champion. TR prepared two days before the event, and the championship was taken by Mayundon DLC from Los Baños, Laguna. TR placed second after Mayundon DLC, but the said competition was not an official National DLC competition, according to DLCAPI. After the fourth National Competition, TR joined the Barangay Ugong DLC competition, during which more than one point was deducted from its score. TR did not make it to the top three, due to exceeding the maximum members required. The last competition TR joined was in Barangay Bagong Ilog, in which it placed third, with QCHS Warriors DLC taking the championship. TR took on a reunion project in February 2009, in which it collaborated with Maybunga DLC members and QCHS Warriors DLC's five elite color guards. The combined corps placed third in the Barangay Butting DLC competition, while Sinag Katipunan DLC took first place, and Gallant 88 DLC took second. Prior to that, the reunion corps also joined the Taguig City DLC competition and took second place, although there was controversy that it supposedly should have taken the championship but, according to the judges, failed to because the members did not have a gala uniform. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Taguig Renegade Drum and Lyre Corps」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
