boxingfred Posted August 12, 2009 Share Posted August 12, 2009 Were you around in 2000 when DCI was supposed to be held at FedEx Field, but Dan Snyder bought the team over that winter and basically screwed DCI? That's why DCI ended up at College Park instead. Something tells me Dan and DCI won't be negotiating anytime in the future. I was, That's a long story. Dan will do anything to occupy as many dates in that stadium as possible. As long as it does not interfere with Skins football. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
84BDsop Posted August 12, 2009 Share Posted August 12, 2009 Any venue is going to have it's pros and cons...until someone can self-fund a monster stadium purpose built for drum corps, we'll have it live with facilities designed primarily for other purposes. The trick is finding a decent venue DCI can afford....a weeks rental on a major stadium is NOT cheap. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Triple Forte Posted August 13, 2009 Share Posted August 13, 2009 Hmmmm....the greatest attendance suckage...the east (with the exception of 05). Midwest (Madison only, since you didn't give 08 and 09 probably won't come in for a bit) not bad.Top 2....out west and waaay out west...hmmmmm Yeah.....that's because the west coasters only attend shows close to home. By attending the west coast shows it brings the numbers up and by not attending the east coast shows....the numbers go down. And the west coasters call themselves drum corps fans..........please....."Oh it's too far to travel.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OdeToArsenal47 Posted August 13, 2009 Share Posted August 13, 2009 I vote for a revolving location. 2009: Indianapolis (Midwest) 2010: San Diego/Los Angeles (West) 2011: Dallas (Southwest) 2012: Charlotte (South) 2013: Boston (North) Or something like that. And then the locations can change around. Madison, Sacramento, San Jose, Seattle, Phoenix, Austin, Nashville, Miami, Jacksonville, Orlando, New York, Denver, Philly, Detroit, Toronto even. They're all feasible locations. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
