Pit_Girl_77 Posted July 13, 2011 Share Posted July 13, 2011 This should be a huge crowd! Most of the center 3 sections are sold out (Few random seats in the bottom few rows), and we have over 20 different school groups attending the show. Bigger stadium than our Kansas City show last year, and we are expecting to have tickets available at the gate, but you may want to order this week just to be sure. All tickets ordered by phone or on-line after July 7th can be picked up at the Will-Call booth. 2200+ tickets have been sold so far... Show info/Tickets: http://www.colts.org/brassimpact_kc11.asp (I will post housing info and other random stuff once I recover from last nights Waukee show...got the Colt Cadets back to Dubuque around 4 am...)

Pit_Girl_77 Posted July 15, 2011 Share Posted July 15, 2011 We have heard a few rumors saying the show has been pushed back to a later start due to the forecasted heat, but we do not have any confirmation of that from DCI. Any updates to showtimes will be found on the front page of www.colts.org, and I will do my best to get updates here as well. Please encourage friends and families coming to the show to drink lots of water. Water bottles will be allowed in the stadium, and we encourage you to support the Band Boosters by purchasing additional food and drink from them at the concession stands. All seats are reserved, so you can pick up your tickets early and find a cool place until showtime and not worry about saving your seats. The ticket booth and will-call tables will be open at 3:00, and the show starts at 7:00. We will have tickets available at the gate, but of course the sooner you get your seats the better they will be. Tickets can be purchased on-line until Sunday Morning at: http://www.colts.org/brassimpact_kc11.asp Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
craiga Posted July 18, 2011 Share Posted July 18, 2011 Looking forward to tonight....do we know if the start time HAS been changed due to the heat? Also, is this Central Time? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BRASSO Posted July 18, 2011 Share Posted July 18, 2011 (edited) Looking forward to tonight....do we know if the start time HAS been changed due to the heat? Also, is this Central Time? Yes, Central Time. Also, good thinking by those involved about attempting to push the show back time wise a bit due to the heat. Thats being considerate for everybody concerned, and shows good foresight and intelligence, imo. Edited July 18, 2011 by BRASSO Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
