Are you going after Boston in the same way? They haven't announced in publicly in a statement. Who really knows what they're going to do? I will never understand why so many people on here think they should be entitled to have the first shake at information that is meant for a corps' membership.

If COVID-19 shuts down 2020 tour
horndevil replied to oldestoftheold's topic in DCI World Class Corps Discussions
I think what might be a bigger concern of the tour happens as scheduled is schools that are still in session deeper in the summer to make up for lost days -

George Hopkins removed from DCI Hall of Fame
horndevil replied to oldestoftheold's topic in DCI World Class Corps Discussions
I'm curious if he actually would have legal recourse. If an acquittal were to take place and GH were to deem that his removal from the HOF had caused him serious professional damages, would he not be entitled to compensation from those damages? -
Design Costs; To Much $$
horndevil replied to Triple Forte's topic in DCI World Class Corps Discussions
I'd rather see a tuition cap across the board, with set expectations on what every member is to get from that money (number and quality of meals, type of housing, etc.) and let the higher up schmucks figure out the rest of the cost without driving member fees up -
Ooooh...I wanna know who's coming home 😍

I so hope you are right

How do the Cadets right the ship?
horndevil replied to Algernon's topic in DCI World Class Corps Discussions
Have you watched them rehearse this year? I'm not asking for over-rehearsed for the sake of over-rehearsal. But there is a distinct lack of focus and drive that I'm accustomed to...and I'm talking from within the corps -
How do the Cadets right the ship?
horndevil replied to Algernon's topic in DCI World Class Corps Discussions
Soapbox: They need to rehearse like Cadets again. Not take pride in doing the opposite, because the people at the top are taking it easier than the Cadets of yesteryear. Is not the (insert name) Cadets vs. today's Cadets. It's the corps that, hopefully has top tier instruction and is willing fight like hell to overcome adversity. The corps isn't as talented as the corps of yesteryear, and definitely not as talented as those ahead of them. Go out, out work them, and do the work that needs to be done when it need to be done. ...soapbox off Hire more people who know what it means to be a Cadet!!!! -

Find a new or different brass arranger (Jay Bocook, please) Find a new or different visual designer (Jeff Sacktig, maybe) Put the reins on the show coordinator Get Justin Heimbecker involved with the corps again in some capacity #solutions -
It's not just the opener of this show. The arrangements over the past three seasons have been a bad choice. They are not scored in a way that helps the corps sound its fullest. That is (IMO) the biggest part of what worked with Jay Bocook's books (and Klesch, George, etc.). Getting a new brass arranger (in addition to visual designer) have to be of the highest priority for next year
