corpsband Posted July 26, 2015 Share Posted July 26, 2015 They have too many sick members (31 according to fb) and elected not to perform tonight. Plague sucks. Hopefully it doens't spread to the rest of the corps. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FTNK Posted July 26, 2015 Share Posted July 26, 2015 This is how much the DCI admin team respects YOU, the paying customers. $59.95 + Phantom! Time for more gin 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kevin. Posted July 26, 2015 Share Posted July 26, 2015 They have too many sick members (31 according to fb) and elected not to perform tonight. Thanks! Also- that's awful. I remember Atlanta 2009 being a pretty rough for many corps as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kdaddy Posted July 26, 2015 Share Posted July 26, 2015 Serious question: if the central character is French (as the narration would seem to indicate), does American in Paris fit? (I haven't seen the movie) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FTNK Posted July 26, 2015 Share Posted July 26, 2015 Last night I watched a video of PR's opener with my gf, who is from Malaysia and has no drum corps experience or exposure. Halfway through, she says "This is terrible!" 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brian Porter-Szucs Posted July 26, 2015 Share Posted July 26, 2015 I don't know if anyone else feels the same way, but I feel way less invested in DCI this year as a result of this damm DCI Live thing. I love the shows (some of the best ever), but the fact that I can't rewatch them at my convenience is pretty frustrating. My schedule prevents me from watching almost all of the streamed shows during the week ... and I have not been able to watch an entire Saturday broadcast all season (though I am usually able to catch the top 7-10 or so, in terms of placement). Normally, I would go back and watch some of the shows I missed during the week, but can't this year. In the past, I've typically spent a lot of time watching archived shows from past years during DCI season too. Now, I find that I hardly think of DCI during the week at all. There are a handful of world class shows that I have not even seen this year, which never would have happened in the past. Hopefully, they get their crap together for next season and get the replays and archives back up. I think almost everyone feels the same way. Or maybe I'd put it like this: with the amazing top-5 race this year, I'm more invested in these corps than ever. The shows this season will almost certainly rank among the best ever. But DCI as an organization has demonstrated either ineptitude, disregard for their audience, or cowardice in the face of a legal threat that would almost certainly not stand if actually brought to a judge. I suspect the latter is the case, and if so then a lot of the blame goes to the predatory legal team of the music industry that continues to adopt a cut-off-my-nose-to-spite-my-face strategy regarding the internet. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
