What killed drum corps in Canada?
Continental replied to wolfgang's topic in DCI World Class Corps Discussions
There are a lot of lost moments never recorded for corps in Canada. I remember the singing cadence from L'Offensive Lions de Jonquiere" and how much everyone loved it. The crowd went crazy. -
What will corps do at the shows?
Continental replied to JimF-LowBari's topic in DCI World Class Corps Discussions
Back in the early days of DCP, there was a corps alumnus who would comment about his corps' design direction, saying what was wrong and what needed to be changed. A board member of said corps sent him a very critical PM about his comments. He didn't hesitate to post who had said it and what was said. Just because members are no longer with a corps does not make them immune from criticism from the corps itself. -

That would require actors playing actors. -

Gotta be quite desperate to pick me to imitate when there were/are so many others to choose from. -

Technically the modern day equivalent of the T-top. Roof comes off, side windows go down. -

Again, a two-way street. -

It is almost always a two-way street. -

As per the attached photo, the windows do not go down to field level. Still a considerable distance. edit: Here is a better photo. The windows do go lower. Not to field level though, but much lower. -

Oh my, that is quite a simplification of what went on here. -

The roof takes a very long time to open as well. It is not a simple procedure. They have to be absolutely sure that there is no chance of a surprise weather event. -

Thank you but one clarification, is it no spectators in the lot or is it no corps allowed to warm up in the lot that will draw spectators? I would still wear a mask though. Edit: This is what DCI posted. Thank you for the notification. – Post-performance interaction with family, friends and other performers will not be possible for this summer. Performers and staff will not reenter the stadium after performances. Family members, fans, alumni and sponsors will not be permitted in “backstage” areas. This includes parking lots, warm-up zones, corps entry/exit gates and tunnels. -

If I attended any show this summer, I would wear a mask all the time including situations where there are parking lot activities where there is the strong chance people will crowd. -

8%. There is a very long history of German and European immigration to Argentina.
