N.E. Brigand Posted February 17, 2015 Share Posted February 17, 2015 According to this DCI article, six international corps have made inquiries about performing in the 2015 Open Class tour. Besides Jubal (Netherlands) and Yokohama Scouts (Japan), both previously mentioned as possibilities for this year, those corps are Chien Kuo (Taiwan), Gita Sorosowan (Indonesia), North East Technology (Thailand), and Ravens (Ireland). Mind you, North East had been announced as participating in DCI's 2014 Open Class tour at about this time last year, which shows that such early notices should be treated skeptically. Still, if half the groups show, that would be the largest overseas attendance in many years. No point in seeking out show information yet, but a heads up that some of these groups eventually may need to be added to your list. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
N.E. Brigand Posted February 17, 2015 Share Posted February 17, 2015 I don't know if it hints at a theme for their 2015 show, but on Jewel City's Facebook page, a Feb. 8 image of prospective members stretching is captioned with a line from the movie Titanic (the 1997 version, of course): "Paint me like one of your French girls". I assume they won't be marching in the nude. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

From what I have seen, I believe the Ravens are planning to come over to participate in the Sound Sport Division, not Open Class. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They were expecting to do an Open Class Eval last camp, but it was moved to the next one. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gloriousgoo Posted February 25, 2015 Author Share Posted February 25, 2015 I will add them once it is confirmed that they are indeed competing in Open Class! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dan Balash Posted March 9, 2015 Share Posted March 9, 2015 Vanguard Cadets: "On Cloud Nine" Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
N.E. Brigand Posted March 9, 2015 Share Posted March 9, 2015 (edited) So... no Temptations in there, I guess. The parts the brass played at the birthday dinner video sound promising, if disjointed. I hope that what comes between on the field is light on synthezier and eschews prerecorded voice altogether. Edited to correct my stupid mix-up of "Cloud Nine" and "Get Off of My Cloud".
