Re-reading that prologue, I'm thinking a corps should do a show titled "Death Marked".

So is it a Romeo & Juliet show? Music from Shakespeare in Love? Again the Rota R&J theme from the 1960s? Or Prokofiev? Or Tchaikovsky?

Or West Side Story?

Or The Cardigans' "Lovefool"?

Or Taylor Swift?

 

Here is the Prologue from Shakespeare's tragedy:

 "Two households, both alike in dignity,

 In fair Verona, where we lay our scene,

 From ancient grudge break to new mutiny,

 Where civil blood makes civil hands unclean.

 From forth the fatal loins of these two foes

 A pair of star-cross'd lovers take their life;

 Whole misadventured piteous overthrows

 Do with their death bury their parents' strife.

 The fearful passage of their death-mark'd love,

 And the continuance of their parents' rage,

 Which, but their children's end, nought could remove,

 Is now the two hours' traffic of our stage;

 The which if you with patient ears attend,

 What here shall miss, our toil shall strive to mend."

Does it usually take this long for show announcements? 

No...but licensing wasn't this big of an issue before.

Is it really licensing?  I say this logic is not accurate.

If you as a corps announce you are going to play X show music....but haven't actually played it...what agreement/copyright/license have you actually broken?  none imo...you can always later say...sorry but due to licensing restrictions we are now doing Y show and playing Z...

The only corps that's announced  "We're delaying our announcement due to licensing" is the Cadets. 

BD and Crown always wait.

Bloo is happy with last year so they will probably wait again.

BAC secretly thinks they're going to win so they are waiting too.

Everyone else --

In 2014...Boston announced their show literally just before the opening performance on Facebook...so please enough of this diatribe...Crown x-staff now at Boston has some merit as well...
