Stu Posted January 10, 2013 Share Posted January 10, 2013 Not trying to be an a**h*** here... However, doesn't posting an email communication from the directors of the 7 written to just the other DCI directors actually go against DCP policy? 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Daave Posted January 10, 2013 Share Posted January 10, 2013 I'd say that given some of the numbers from the 990 thread, the "WE7" aren't necessarily in a position to negotiate. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chaddyt Posted January 10, 2013 Share Posted January 10, 2013 I'd say that given some of the numbers from the 990 thread, the "WE7" aren't necessarily in a position to negotiate. What kind of financial hit will DCI shows take if WE7 aren't there? On the flip side, I don't see that WE7 is stable enough to venture out on their own. Just a matter of who blinks first I guess. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
skywhopper Posted January 10, 2013 Share Posted January 10, 2013 This proposal would give the G7 control of DCI. The answer must be no. 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The WE7 have already bailed out of a quarter of their usual schedule of DCI shows with the MIM series. Let them do what they will, and let's move on. 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HockeyDad Posted January 10, 2013 Share Posted January 10, 2013 (edited) Not trying to be an a**h*** here... However, doesn't posting an email communication from the directors of the 7 written to just the other DCI directors actually go against DCP policy? Maybe. But it wasn't addressed to just the other dci directors. Go back and take another look. It was addressed to the membership of drum corps international. Whatever that means....

jonnyboy Posted January 10, 2013 Share Posted January 10, 2013 So many had said the G7 thing was over, others said they were meeting as we speak and will come out into the light of day soon. Here we are. As far as I can tell, there is no way the current board is going to approve this mess. The G7 corps blew it a few years ago, that might have been there best chance to take over DCI. I don't think they have a strong position now and I can only wish godspeed to the current powers that be in DCI to straighten this out. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
skywhopper Posted January 10, 2013 Share Posted January 10, 2013 --copyrighted material, links or search instructions to copyrighted material (specifically, music and video) --emails, private messages, instant messages and anything not written by the person doing the actual posting These rules are not enforced in general (see the show threads filled with copyrighted non-self-authored tweets which are not removed). And this kind of message is not what the rules are meant to apply to in any case. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
