If I supported this proposal (which I don't,) I'd lobby the directors directly instead of a petition. They are the ones that vote thumbs up or down on anything in DCI.
I asked one of the judges at the Murph. contest during the break. He told me that they are not even supposed to look at the corps until the announcer says "Ladies and Gentlemen, DCI is proud to present........." :sshh:
I'm thinking Bluecoats at this point, however, lets wait and see what happens when the judges get back down on the field, which I believe happens this week, before anyone starts sizing their corps for championship rings.
....hmmmm, I was told it was going to cost an additional $1500 on top of the dues to make the trip to Europe. Guess I'll be staying home this summer :(
Yeah, its Nisei. my dad marched there and he has a similar picture. The uni's are cream and purple with the inside color on the sash being gold. Flags are purple and white. Nisei was out of Chicago's north side.
