Dan Detweiler Posted August 16, 2013 Share Posted August 16, 2013 Tammi Stollberg, Show Chairmen has informed me and all participating Corps' that the show is rain or shine. The stadium field is Astro type turf.... not dirt/grass for you to lose members in(Allentown 87) Only thing that will stop the show is Lightning/// We have all performed in the rain...sometimes it was light...sometimes not!!! This is also the DCA-South Championships .... Looking forward to seeing ALL the participating Corps Saturday as they look for that final number going to Annapolis.. and a packed stadium! Looking forward to seeing you Vic. Safe travels coming up today (or tomorrow, not sure when you're coming in). At least it won't be blazing hot!

KeithHall Posted August 16, 2013 Share Posted August 16, 2013 Rain? Who cares, suck it up! I know Sun Devils don't let rain stop them...they'll be there. Heck, if a hurricane was coming they'd be there!!! GO SUN DEVILS!!!!! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DCASouth Posted August 16, 2013 Share Posted August 16, 2013 Keith , I believe most if not ALL the Corps in attendance feel the same. Even a few hurricanes (2004) haven't stopped the South Corps' from getting on that field! This is DRUM CORPS..not marching band !! :) Dan, I fly in around noon tomorrow, meeting a former Hurricane I marched with for lunch who lives just outside Douglasville, then heading to the site....see you then, Rain? Who cares, suck it up! I know Sun Devils don't let rain stop them...they'll be there. Heck, if a hurricane was coming they'd be there!!! GO SUN DEVILS!!!!!

VOReason Posted August 16, 2013 Share Posted August 16, 2013 I didn't think it was even possible for a DCA corps to score below a 50 ... :blink:/> In fact, I think DCA will give a corps 50 points for just getting off the bus...especially in August! A five point bonus if the corps gets off the bus in the rain. Cincinatti Tradition - 55.0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LegalEagle50 Posted August 16, 2013 Share Posted August 16, 2013 Thank God DCA does not have electronics to deal with. Standing water issues and all. Which they will learn to deal with next year...... 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dcarocks Posted August 16, 2013 Share Posted August 16, 2013 And an extra point for each horn player thats still playing at the end of the show would be another 5 points...

LegalEagle50 Posted August 16, 2013 Share Posted August 16, 2013 Electronics passed? Yes, to mike the pits, not for vocalization, electronic instruments, or miked soloists, but yes it did back during the winter. Starts next year. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
