But I agree with you. While Dan A did have a meeting with Pioneer's staff at some point at a regional (Roman wasn't at the meeting), nothing really seemed to improve or come out of it. Dan even asked the staff if Pioneer can make it past the season. So I have no clue what DCI is doing about everything. But I haven't seen anything happen. By the way, I'm the OP from the newest Pioneer thread. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes... a real first class way to run your media shop. </sarcasm> Not sure what you are even alleging regarding rehearsals. I would think a corps would have the right to conduct an undistracted rehearsal. In fact, given how music licensing is these days, corps have the legal responsibility to prevent unauthorized filming of their rehearsals. So I would not be surprised if a camera crew showing up at a rehearsal were denied permission to film. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
