ruag8tr2 Posted June 5, 2008 Share Posted June 5, 2008 I thought it would be cool to see which shows people are going to (non members- obviously) and how for they are traveling to get to the shows. With the price of gas I am thinking that people are trying to stay close to home to see their shows. I am going to the following shows: Orlando Florida- I have to go to this show. It will be the only opportunity I get to see Teal Sound this yr and it is really close- only about 2 hours North on Florida Turnpike Atlanta Georgia- This show is the best World Class show of the year (besides Indianapolis of course). I think just about every World Class corps is there but I wish there were a few Open Class corps to round it out. I am making a long drive to Atlanta for this one- about 8 hours to Atlanta from South Florida. you? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rosski47 Posted June 5, 2008 Share Posted June 5, 2008 (edited) Clovis, CA- 2 minutes Palo Alto(Stanford), CA- about 3 to 3 1/2 hours For sure, maybe check out some others. Stanford will be by far the best West Coast show. I'm lookin forward to some Phantom! Edit for distances.

FluteBoy Posted June 6, 2008 Share Posted June 6, 2008 Hey guys ... Not sure how far I need to travel this year for the shows I might go to ... does DCI still have that distance finder thing in their schedule section? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I am making a long drive to Atlanta for this one- about 8 hours to Atlanta from South Florida. I have to leave tour on the 22nd of July this summer to teach my band camp. I'll be going to this show, so you better give me a call! You can check out my band, and I'll make my wife cook you dinner! :big hug: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dave, Would love to get together for a few minutes in Orlando and trade some old LIk stories and memories. Will you be with Kris' corps or are you attending as a spectator?
