mvbailey12 Posted May 2, 2008 Share Posted May 2, 2008 So, I have been watching some old Alumni corps reunions that have happened at DCI finals weeks...27th Lancers - 1994, Madison Scouts - 2006 (and I was watching 88 & 92 VK) but I was thinking, looking at the emotion and fan appeal that these groups did for that "One Night Only" what if DCI were to have a special night - just once - in the perfect world - during all of DCI finals week - that all these corps could perform - would you go to see it and who should be included? I listed a few in the poll above, but who would you love to see in this as an alumni performance again? Please don't go on about the DCA corps - I'm talking the best selections from throughout the years from these Alumni corps and such. Man, I think I would be drained emotionally! I was just after watching Scouts and 27. I would love to see VK do an Alumni Corps like these groups - that would be cool! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

raphael18 Posted May 2, 2008 Share Posted May 2, 2008 I remember doing a show with the Royal Airs Alumni back when - those guys were freaking awesome. Not only did they light the crowd up, but they had all of the junior corps members cracking up before retreat. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

raphael18 Posted May 2, 2008 Share Posted May 2, 2008 I don't know about DCI - but I'd wager DCA would allow an exhibition show with Alumni corps. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
madalumni Posted May 2, 2008 Share Posted May 2, 2008 It would be great if they could have 10-12 Alumni corps performing. No competition, just each group throwing down and making the fans pass out from the excitement! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cabalumnidrummer Posted May 3, 2008 Share Posted May 3, 2008 " I don't know about DCI - but I'd wager DCA would allow an exhibition show with Alumni corps." They already do -- It's called the DCA Alumni Classic, and it's held on the Sunday of DCA Finals, beginning about 10:00 a.m. Many feel it would be better attended if it were held at night, but with prelims now on Saturday evening, that's not likely to happen.

raphael18 Posted May 3, 2008 Share Posted May 3, 2008 Ha, well I guess I would have known that if I were more involved with DCA. Wish I could do it, but such is poor geographic position and beginning a career. Hopefully I'll be out there again some day though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
