Pitch me your DCI show concepts.
Continental replied to Orwellian Wiress's topic in DCI World Class Corps Discussions
A conversation in another thread had me wondering how cool it would have been if Cavie's had done a show called "Soylent Green Machine" - where the guard disappears at the end because..... -
One of the most gorgeous moments in the history of the activity.

Phantom Regiment 2022
Continental replied to college-phan's topic in DCI World Class Corps Discussions
As I pointed out to a good friend of mine on here, I've noted that this year, even with the last minute change of drill designers, no one is complaining about drill design. I hope they stay with Phantom. It's been such a positive year for your efforts. -
Such a beautiful ballad. Was the last time the Cadets visited that corner back in '02 Tame the Perilous Skies?

Corps Rehearsal closings!

DCI is not Robocop. I understand what you are saying, yet it's not a powerful organization - and many people assume they have a lot more control than they do. -
SCV trilogy that never was

Instead of Clue, they could have done Trouble and had a giant Popamatic prop in the center of the field. You activate the Popamatic to see how many steps the marchers can take. -

There is much lost with new fans on here. You were there before Phantom was a force, and you were there when Phantom became a force. You have supported your corps through your membership et al, and you kept volunteering after you aged out. For many years up until now. You are a true Phan. I sincerely hope that those paying attention know that when you have experienced being a part of the organization, it remains part of you. Phantom benefits from people like you. Who do not forget. -

I have a '74 recording somewhere on a hard drive. That gives even greater prospective. Suta, you were there during those years when that hornline kept getting better and better and better. You were there when the corps went from entering DCI to being 2nd place. Yes, '79 was something. But the tone, quality, musicianship leading up to that is astounding. -

I hope Phantom keeps close to this uniform next year. It's perfect. It represents them so well. It was only recently that I noticed the chevron design incorporated in the back half of the semi-baldric. -

Thanks to Sound Cloud, every Phantom show from '75 onward is available for listening. I love to listen to how their hornline progressed through the late '70s. -

Serenade for Strings was an amazing wall of sound when Phantom used it as their opener in '83. -
I have just completed an article to be published in the journal "Psychology: Right Here, Right Now" regarding the tendency for Llamas to get very agitated every time someone walks by and says "Llama Dama Ding Dong." They do not appreciate this kind of name calling. I hope it helps to educate society about how sensitive these animals are.

Corps Rehearsal closings!

I'm shocked at the behavior of so many people. I wish we could do something about closed mindedness. -
As a part-time, online trained professional, I can't look at a Llama and deduce the cause of abnormal behavior. Therapy takes months, sometimes years, to unravel the complex psyche of the Llama. However, a colleague of mine is a Llama Whisperer. He would need to be close to the animal to sense its aura, in order to determine what is causing it angst.

For the record: Attendance and popularity
Continental replied to FTNK's topic in DCI World Class Corps Discussions
It would be interesting to look at total season attendance through the years vs select shows.
