Interesting. So that means instead of Spartacus or Core of Teptation, shows designed about Caligula and Deep Throat (with no rules of design limitations) and presenting them on the field in the name of artistic design freedom is acceptable to you in DCI. Or, are you going to backpedal and say you actually are for rules that limit artistic designs? 15 minutes ago, Stu said: So you are now saying that artistic design should be limited by rules for things other than just safety. You are contradicting yourself. You are just the CUTEST when you play the "I'm gonna catch someone in a contradiction to make myself look smart" game! Also, as Mike pointed out, those "rules for things other than just safety" aren't coming from DCI, but societal norms. If a corps wants to do a Caligula show and march with no pants or underwear, that's their artistic choice. They also know that they will lose a heavy majority of spectators who will not want to see a performance of that sort in public. These designers may be artistic and expressive, but they also know that, first and foremost, THEY HAVE TO PUT BUTTS IN SEATS. You don't need rules limiting artistic design in that matter, because the designers already know not to do that or else they will lose those butts. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Save your money don’t go to a June show. We’re going to Hamilton 6/25. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Add double GE judging for a few major shows, particularly San Antonio. Then we could use abbreviated panels for the remainder of the season, including championship week. all major regionals get double GE now Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jeff Ream Posted December 14, 2017 Author Share Posted December 14, 2017 5 hours ago, Stu said: Been that way for years. The leadership of the corps which became the natorious G7 have pounded out the marketing promotion, "Come see the show before the show in the lot and follow us into the stadium." The visual records of the stands indicates that, along with other factors, the promotion of just the top corps deserving audiences has had an impact. it was that way long before the G7. take the tin foil hat off Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
