  1. Suffice to say they've patched it up a bit: https://www.mtsacathleticscomplex.com/main-facilities/stadium-track-field
  2. Shrinkflation is a thing everywhere, DCI included.
  3. This season of DCI is brought to you by the letters T, B and D.
  4. Many courts have online court record searches; depending on what state and jurisdiction (ie state vs federal), you may need to pay for access.
  5. If they do manage to somehow come back, maybe they should rebrand as the Ensigns. 90 years IS an awfully long time to go without a promotion, after all. šŸ˜
  6. BD Fatigue is exactly the phrase that describes how I've felt about drum corps corps in general for the last 10-15 years. And I think it's seeped into more than a few corps at this point as well as far as trying to come up with anything that could actually compete for 1st place.
  7. It's not bitterness or saying it's unearned or undeserved- more of an acknowledgement of the seemingly perpetual disparity between what BD rolls out with every year and what every other corps brings out, as well as the lack of overall competitive parity at the top that's been the environment of DCI for the last 10-15 years. To have any other expectations for this season, or any given season for the foreseeable future, would be wishful thinking at best or being in denial at worst. And yes there's a lot of time between now and August but realistically speaking, it would take something along the lines of multiple major staff departures or a sudden unforeseen and unexpected drop in finances or recruiting, and none of those are anything that should be expected to happen anytime soon.
  8. Doesn't really matter, they're going to do whatever they want and win regardless of what they do. Hell, they could do a full "4:33" show, no playing, no movement whatsoever and still get at least a 96.
  9. Kinda feel like there should have been some more leaks by now...
  10. Per Cascades' website, there will be some PNW shows this coming season: https://www.seattlecascades.org/single-post/dci-tour-returns-to-the-pacific-northwest
  11. "Where is the love?" Let's be real- it feels like there is very little to love about drum corps these days.
  12. What'll it look like? Probably even shorter than last year.
  13. As a former member of that corps, I wish them luck. They're going to need it.
