Matt, great review of the many stadiums around the country. I realize it's not all-inclusive yet, and it's a great work in progress.

As a few others have suggested, the DCI Minnesota show at TCF Stadium is a great venue (despite it's opening debut with the severe weather)

Also surprised that Broken Arrow's stadium hasn't been listed/reviewed yet as that is a great mid-western drum corps show!

Even though there hasn't been a DCI Show at this stadium in a long time, would be good to read something on 1991s DCI World Champion show site at the Cotton Bowl.

Hey, Sluggo! Haven't heard from you in forever! :w00t:

This week's update is up- a New Jersey double feature to conclude my east coast focus for the time being (but more east coast venues will be up in the future).

I do mainly spotlight venues I've either personally visited or personally performed at, so my reviews can be as authentic as possible. That said, I've performed at Broken Arrow, Rice Stadium and Orlando, so you can expect to see those stadiums make an appearance in the future as well. :smile:

A bit of history on a stadium that is no more but once was the venue for " The Dream " annual Drum Corps show in the 60's, early 70's that was one of the biggest shows on the East Coast.

Two posts this week! The first is another Open Class venue, Spring Valley IL, as well as a nearby venue that, while in need of a bit of work, could be a dramatic upgrade to Spring Valley's current venue:
