And I think people would find just playing and doing parades, boring, at best. The current members of DCA corps all pretty much hate parades.

Either floor or stage. Yes, indoors.

And, if they need extra time at the end of finals, Cabs Alumni are performing. So that's at least an hour

Don't know about any other stuff, but there's a brief presser with DCA officials and Fusion, I think, on Friday afternoon.

Someone in Bridgemen Brass told me last night that BB will be participating in mini-corps. And those cats can PLAY!

Beats me - Above my pay grade . I just know it's the same personnel both days, except for one.

Yes, I believe, with one exception, same green shirt crew both days next weekend.

Very successful show for Hurcs. I'm told there were over 2,000 tix sold. Between the full bleachers, the three or four deep standing room at the top, and those walking around socializing, I believe it!

We added even more heart-tugging this week ❤

Nope. Still that bad. OTOH, all three DCA corps did a phenomenal job tonight. So much better than when I last saw them three weeks ago. And Cabs, for one, were already very good then. And, if anybody at Wiiliamsport next week who's been following DCA for a while sees Cabs and is not crying at the new ending, they have no heart whatsoever.

He's pretty easy to spot, Waldo hat or not 🤣

Nice! Stop by Cabs' souvie table and say hello! Been way to long since we've crossed paths!

Ugh. But SOMEBODY has to go to the CT show. Hurricanes only had that show date for, what, three decades before the Reading show started? So it sounds like you're not going with her? Bummer 😕

A nice easy weekend for her before Billtown, yes sir. 20 month old car, thanks to drum corps, just passed 50K miles today. Good thing I know how to get 250K+ outta my ride!

I'll be at Seymour, hawking Cabs' swag, as always. Nice to have a show three miles from home! Oh, and GO CABS! RELEASE THE BULL!!!!!!!!!!

Heard it from another you been messin' around

Well, Troopers posted today that they're looking for a food services manager for 2020, so there's your answer. You're welcome.

Except that only one corps had a complete show at Wildwood this year, and they weren't the one 🤣.

Most will be, on Friday, of course. I don't know who & where, but I bet DCA will get around to posting those details, say. Friday morning 😁. I believe Cabs will be at WAHS on Friday afternoon, due to having won the "honor" of being the halftime show at the football game there Friday night.

And even better folks to hang with well into the wee hours after finals!

Have you SEEN the attendance at the Alumni show the last few years?! Maybe 500 people? Look, part of DCA's audience really likes the alumni thing, but alumni corps don't put additional butts in the seats.

Since nobody's done this yet, and I've tried being nice, waiting in vain for some other pedant, it's AVANT garde, thank you. Now, to answer the question; As a four decade drum corps fan, I love when corps try to do something new, and unleash some deep meaning. As long as they have a loud hornline with a challenging book, smooth beats with lots of notes, and a guard that can spin, toss, and dance well, I'm good. Maybe I get what they're trying to say (I feel you, BK), maybe I don't (Not going to name names).

Sigh. Nothing like a Jersey diner.

Not going to read this whole thread, as much as I deeply value all your opinions 😝 . So to answer the question; Yes.
