elephanttalk Posted July 31, 2014 Share Posted July 31, 2014 Yeah chance of storms right now for Allentown is 80% all day... 60% evening. Not conducive to running around on flat surfaces with large hunks of metal. #sigh... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

luv4corps Posted July 31, 2014 Share Posted July 31, 2014 I haven't been around drum corps that long but is this one of the worst years ever for rain outs, threats and general stress about the weather? I am thinking how much corps depend on the run-throughs as practice, dealing with rehearsals in the rain and so on. Enough rain already! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zeke Posted July 31, 2014 Share Posted July 31, 2014 (edited) Too bad Allentown wasn't done the old way..and EVERYONE performed on the same day..why is it again they felt the need to deviate from that method?

DrumManTx Posted July 31, 2014 Share Posted July 31, 2014 Denton had a 100% chance of rain and our resident meteorologists weren't sure until a few hours before the show. And it didn't rain out. Let's calm down and stop going worst case scenario. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Contraaaaa Posted July 31, 2014 Share Posted July 31, 2014 Huge props to the Cascades for braving the weather and performing tonight. It was only a slight drizzle as they entered the field, but it was a full-on downpour by the time they started. I thought they would've called the show halfway through their performance. Bravo to these kids for sticking it out and performing so well. On that note, a word to audience members: the kids on the field are there for you and vice-versa. Please have the common courtesy of staying put for the entire duration of a given performance. AKA if it starts raining, DON'T GET UP AND LEAVE DURING THE MIDDLE OF A PERFORMANCE. Are the kids on the field allowed to walk off the field simply because it's raining? No? Then neither should you. /soapbox 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
