[We’ve Gone Theatrical… Let’s go more.]

I love this topic.  While I could be considered a dinosaur as I matched in the late 70s and early 80s, I do enjoy the over the top performance of today's drum corps.  I have often thought that drones may be the next innovation, with streaming directly to an app so you can get up close and be a part of the drill.   Better yet, cameras attached to MMs for real immersion.  Then streamed to an app.

If you have donated at least $250 to DCI when purchasing tickets, then you can enter the west gate.  Not a lot of folks can afford another $250.  A bit classest but that's the society we live in.  I don't think many folks donated another chunk of change to put a dent in the line at the east gate.

Thanks Mike. It was a fun read and brought back a lot of great memories.

Drones...early and often...with silks attached...flying hellbent for leather over the corps in formation. New position in the corps...drone pilot. 

Yes...I'm kidding. 

We have been talking about the usage of drones at some point.  I would not be surprised.
