jjeffeory Posted February 18, 2010 Share Posted February 18, 2010 (edited) Does anyone know what year the old program PM Magazine covered DCI If so, what corps where shown? Is it available somewhere? I seem to remember Garfield, and SCV for sure, but wondered if anyone else had seen it. Has there been any other more recent coverage of Drum Corps on a TV program besides ESPN? If so, were these shown nationally or locally as far as you know? Edited February 18, 2010 by jjeffeory Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kstein Posted February 18, 2010 Share Posted February 18, 2010 (edited) It was 1984 Wasn't 83 Miami? That's definitely where we were when I had to remove Dixie Whatney from my hornline's warm up arc. They may have been there multiple years, but that was memorable. Edited February 18, 2010 by kstein Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
oldsoprano Posted February 18, 2010 Share Posted February 18, 2010 In 1985, Spirit did a live thing on the local version of PM Magazine (Called PM Atlanta). Not sure if it will work if you're not a Facebook friend with this person, but here's a video of that TV appearance... http://www.facebook.com/video/video.php?v=1043307037402 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jjeffeory Posted February 18, 2010 Author Share Posted February 18, 2010 It was 1984 How many times did PM Magazine cover drum corps? I remember standing in Star Hall in the Staff room. There was a plaque on the wall with an article from ESPN talking about Drum Corps. In that article, they referenced PM Magazine coverage of DCI. I believe that was 1987, and Star must have been the broadcast as well. Actually, I remember VK, Star, BD, SCV, Cavaliers, Cadets, and Phantom. Does anyone else remember any more from that year? What about these other years? Who was in them? Has there been anything in the '90s or '00s? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

84Cadet Posted February 18, 2010 Share Posted February 18, 2010 I remember PM Magazine following us around in 84. I never did see the program, though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
troopers1 Posted February 18, 2010 Share Posted February 18, 2010 PM Magazine did a piece on teh Troopers in 1981 or 1982. If you find the year they marched with double rainbow flags in the guard, the PM Magazine piece ran that following fall. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Northern Thunder Posted February 18, 2010 Share Posted February 18, 2010 Entertainment Tonight also did a segment on the 1983 DCI Championship, which aired a few weeks after the contest. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jjeffeory Posted February 18, 2010 Author Share Posted February 18, 2010 So basically, PM Magazine covered DCI for several years through out the '80s. I wonder if DCI has these broadcasts in storage somewhere? It would be fun to see them and see what kind of coverage has been done in the past and compare it to today.
