The corps need to lay off all unecessary staff at this time. All efforts from today, to the end of the year, should go towards fund-raising.That is the way forward to guarantee a 2021 season. Please DCI--make an announcement this week.

Given that the Tokyo Olympics will certainly be postponed or cancelled, and the ongoing news this weekend, it is time for DCI to announce the closure of the 2020 season. The kids and instructors deserve to know, as well as us fans. Corps should go on lockdown till the end of the summer, decrease expenses, and do nothing but fund-raise.

Can DCI pull off a compressed summer tour? I guess the next couple of weeks will tell the story. Housing might be the biggest obstacle.

DCI could offer to apply the tuiton dues to the 2021 season. Age outs should defintely be given the option to march in 2021. If we all stick together, and step up donations over the next year, we will survive.

imo, the time has come for DCI to announce the cancellation of the 2020 season. Housing issues alone would be impossible to resolve. Colleges are closing early, and will likely go on lockdown for at least half the summer. High schools as well. Better to announce now, so that the kids have time to make other summer plans. DCI and the corps will survive, and come back strong in 2021. Our activity has weathered many storms over the decades, due largely to the amazing people involved in the drum corps world.

Cadets announce MetLife Stadium for this stellar show. Love it.

Anyone know the location of the Cadets show on July 29? Still not listed on DCI's website. Excellent line-up, would like to plan it into my schedule.

When will DCI release the 2020 summer schedule?
