Galen Posted August 11, 2009 Share Posted August 11, 2009 I figured I'd get the ball rolling on next season's schedule rolling early (yes, before we pick a location for finals- because I'm OC like that ). So use this thread to post requests/suggestions for home shows, places you'd like to visit, etc. I'll start off with a question- since we've had a bit of a spike in European corps lately, who would be interested in putting a European tour back on the schedule? I'd be looking at a 2-week time period, in between the regional championships and the first focus show of the season. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ced3905 Posted August 11, 2009 Share Posted August 11, 2009 Europe sounds good to me. And of course we'd like a show in Bowling Green again. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ftwdrummer Posted August 11, 2009 Share Posted August 11, 2009 A small European tour sounds like a good idea. Better question: given that this season's tour will be ending up in the South, where are this season's focus shows going to be? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hostrauser Posted August 11, 2009 Share Posted August 11, 2009 Glory of Music would be interested in a European Tour. It's been in our mind. I'd also be interested in an Alaska/Western Canada tour, say from Juneau to Regina, SK. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ajw Posted August 11, 2009 Share Posted August 11, 2009 Europe tour would be cool with me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Galen Posted August 11, 2009 Author Share Posted August 11, 2009 Europe sounds good to me. And of course we'd like a show in Bowling Green again. Bowling Green OH? Not many corps signed up for that one when it was on the schedule a couple years ago. Re: Canada/Alaska- find me some venues and I'll see what I can work in. Historically, shows in western Canada have been sparsely attended- perhaps that can change this season? And no, I will not schedule a show on that blue-turf field in Barrow. As for where regionals and focus shows would be, the answer is "not sure yet". I've played around with a few schedule drafts already in the last couple weeks that included Raleigh, Atlanta and Miami for the south regional, but nothing is settled yet. From posts I've read in other threads, there seems to be interest in Oxford MS and Austin TX (a first for the south region, having regional finals in Texas, which would certainly be an interesting shakeup for that region). I won't know for sure until we pick the venue for finals. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ex VK DM Posted August 11, 2009 Share Posted August 11, 2009 I would like to see if one of the focus show could be out west. Other than having championship in the west every 4 season, we don't get late season shows. Just throwing the region in the hat. Maybe have the focus show in AK swing over and through Canada. Down the west coast then over to the south. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ajw Posted August 11, 2009 Share Posted August 11, 2009 I would like to request having another show this year in Boone, NC to make my home show. It could be held at Kidd Brewer Stadium which just had some major renovations which increased seating. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RockEuph Posted August 11, 2009 Share Posted August 11, 2009 The SunArts Org (formerly SSYAO) would also be highly interested in a European tour as well as having our homeshows in Daytona Beach and Clearwater not interfere with said tour.

Eddie Posted August 11, 2009 Share Posted August 11, 2009 Latin America tour, finishing off with a grand parade up the Rio Grande to wherever finals will be held. Think about it. Begin in San Diego and head south, all the way down to Argentina, turn left and on into Brazil, back up through the coffee countries, trail the Gulf coast up to Heroica Matamoros, and make way up the Rio Grande to who knows where. We can hit every major soccer stadium along the way. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
