The akron crowd is always the best in cheering and loving the corps. They would have gone crazy for all of them, especially Bloo. I know members love the crowd here. What a shame.

Oh i hope everyone gets better and this isn’t just the beginning of others getting sick. Good health to all the corps in the coming weeks!

Just curious what anyone's experience was this year in getting tickets. it is always stressful but did anyone encounter any problems. i clicked on my tickets and then it would not ever let me check out. this happen repeatedly--they would be in my cart and i would have 15 minutes or so on the clock and it would never let me purchase them. all was clicked etc appropriately. after 25 minutes and multiple attempts i did get the tickets, and there were still pretty many open spots, so just curious if anyone else had issues. in truth, it was stressful as ever, like in the past, but it felt like old times being so stressed lol.

Looks like Bluecoats will be there (not Switzerland. Lol) but indianapolis
“2021, here we come! After a long year of disappointment and uncertainty, we’re finally optimistic about bringing The Bluecoats back to the field this summer. With health and safety at the forefront of our planning, Bluecoats have a structure in place to allow us to safely create, rehearse and perform on a limited basis this summer!
We recently hosted a webinar with the 2021 Bluecoats auditionees to discuss these plans for the upcoming season, which includes “spring training” in July, digital content creation, and several live performances in early August. The season will culminate in the DCI World Showcase August 12-14 in Indianapolis, where we will finally bring the Bluecoats Experience back to the world stage!
Of course, the health, safety, and wellness of our community remain our utmost priority; as the situation changes surrounding the COVID-19 pandemic, our plans and protocols may change too.
That caveat notwithstanding, The Bluecoats can’t wait to perform for you again this summer! Stay tuned for exciting show reveals in the coming weeks!!

Thanks for responses. I did not get the email two weeks ago but dod get the one yesterday, but unfortunately i cannot access my gmail at work so diidnt see the email until last night. By then almost the entire middle sections were wiped clean. i usually sit in rows 30 and up etc but got down close in row 10 but on the fifty, so i guess i will be in the blast zone. getting tickets for allentown has always been stressful, wish it were easier but oh well.

Just got a DCI email announcing 2 night package for previous purchasers will be online Sept. 30th only and says by special invite because of being a previous purchaser. Just in case the rains in Houston have fouled up your email delivery or if you need to mark your calendar as a reminder... (new meaning for the Michaelmas term evidently.)
Conclusion: Allentown remains 2 nights but doesn't say whether the usual suspects will appear on the usual nights. May not even know 9/30 but may have to wait until Thanksgiving.
Also got another email announcing a new skytop breakfast and all day lunch place in Allentown so that one can overlook Hamilton and the Lehigh Valley. Sounds interesting and a change from HamFam (who actually was a sponsor this year) and Yoko's.
Just curious if anyone got aletter this year for allentown 2 night package. I only got an email today at 10:01 telling me they epwere on sale today. Missed my chance at my usual seats. Darn

It was a brass player from my view. Drummer picked it up at the end but i didnt see her get it back

For me this year has some of the most amazing shows from all the corps the top 15 all have some power and beautiful moments for me. Not once did i find myself hoping one is over fast to get to one i like better. It was a great night for me. The top 6 are stellar.

Is it just me, or does every change Boston makes to their ending make it less effective? Action-hero David takes a flying leap onto Goliath and wrestles him while streamers of blood pour down 5 yards away? Looked pretty silly in the theater.
From where i was it got a huge response from the audience. And for me it was pretty amazing as a visual after seeing it how theyve done it the last 5 shows.

Bluecoats at the Akron show were phenomenal, and the akron venue is the greatest venue. Please have this show here every year from now on and ditch massilon. As much as i love the sound at Massillon because of the overhang, akron is just so much better for it all: crowd size ( anyone have a total?) merchandise (Blooo’s souvie line was packed all night long) concessions and bathrooms, sound was still awesome, announcements and corps speakers all could be heard clearly (though the same woman announcer always cracks me up, she gets something wrong every year i think she jumped the gun at the end of the cavies’s show lol) Parking? Maybe a little unorganized from exchange street and i do think they weren't so efficient in getting everyone through quickly for bag checks etc. but lots of police on the streets for traffic afterwards and it looked like corps had good spots for their trucks and busses, and the stadium is just beautiful and the entrance and exits of corps for set up etc looked so easy (compared to buffalo). And what an amazing crowd. They know how to watch and appreciate drum corps. No talking around me at all during a performance and then the applause and love they showed!! I hope all the corps felt it. What a great send off to Indy for all of them. And the program was amazing. Bloo was pouring out the love for everyone who has supported them. That is a lot if work to put together. All in all it was a great great night of drum corps.. the best way to enjoy summer. And bluecoats this year are inspiring.

After seeing Bluecoats in buffalo and feeling the energy they brought, i predict the crowd will go insane in akron when they see them. It will be one amazing night with all these corps and with the akron crowd. Wow bring it on Bloooo!

Congratulations! Last night’s performance was powerful. A great way to to head into this final week at the top. Everyone looked so into the energy of this show. And the competition with the Blue Devils is electric. Both shows hold their own and somehow seem to inspire each other. The power and beauty of theater and performance. Loved it all last night

No rain. A little breeze no lightning as of now. Waiting. They made everyone leave the stadium even cleared the souvie area. I have never seen this for what in my opinion was lightning in the distance. I hope they don’t require everyone to show their tickets to get back in or it will take at least an hour.

Beautiful and should stay that way all night! (Unlike last year lol)

Yep. Every year I hear call backs to past shows.
Yes and i think more references to the past shows this year as the title suggests. They are presenting Bluecoats in spirit, identity, their past with nods to other shows, and their whole Bluecoats vibe. I love it more and more as i watch them.
