Yep, same here too. I am sure their support email box will be full by morning, if everyone sent email like I did to let them know.

My boss alway told me "If you're 10 minutes early, you're 5 minutes late!"

Correct! Kalamazoo...Spirit 74.15 - Cavies 73.55

SoA beat Cavies in one show last year.

According to the Weather Channel only a 20% chance of rain on Saturday. http://www.weather.com/weather/tenday/Akron+OH+USOH0008:1:US

Spirit will be at Riverside Military Academy in Gainsville, GA, then move up to TN for the remainder of spring training to prepare for the 1st show in KY. Spirit is also planning a Friends, Family and Alumni Picnic on Sunday May 26th at 5pm (Riverside Military Academy). I think there will be a nominal fee per car that will include a meal (from their new food truck!) and a preview concert of the show music.

Spirit of Delta!

I would say that about 80% of the hornline in attendance were call backs and after this weekend most of the sections will be set except for some of the last spots. Battery and pit were pretty much set for this camp. As for the music, I will let the corps make that announcement, but I will tell you that in the opener, from NOTE 1 you will recognize the tune and it will firmly set you into the 1920's!! Can't wait to see this production on the field in 2013!!

Spirit...So I can watch my son in Hi-Def!!
