Jeffe77 Posted August 11, 2017 Share Posted August 11, 2017 Why not? With the evolution of shows in the future going towards costumes, etc. I think it be awesome to see corps coming out to the retreat in their traditional uniforms. Would be such a salute to each corps' tradition and history. Heck corps could use those uniforms for a parade and other noncompetitive DCI events, so the expense could be justified. Any thoughts? 7 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lameisrob Posted August 11, 2017 Share Posted August 11, 2017 An idea way too logical for consideration. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It didn't seem to get as much reaction from fans and that alumni suite as I might have expected. Still a cool thing. I presume an appearance in green and aussies by Madison would be a cool thing to witness. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mfrontz Posted August 12, 2017 Share Posted August 12, 2017 I don't think the money would be well spent. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hrothgar15 Posted August 12, 2017 Share Posted August 12, 2017 That's the thing: these "are" the corps now. They are their theme-forward show designs. (Not that I think the theme of any drum corps show could ever be good enough to base your entire corps uniform on, but I digress.) 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bobby L. Collins Posted August 12, 2017 Share Posted August 12, 2017 Most corps would probably cite a lack of storage space for retreat uniforms AND their figure skating apparel. 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jeffmolnar Posted August 12, 2017 Share Posted August 12, 2017 (edited) Vanguard better have their aussies, that's all I'm saying. An SCV retreat with a bunch of bright eyes looking up at the crowd is borderline sacrilegious.
