I didn't go to that show last year, but I am going this year.  What happened?  I want to be prepared before I get there.

They numbered the “seats” in the stands (just pieces of tape with a number on a portion of bleacher) differently than they were labeled on the website or even when sold at will call. So if you showed up to where you thought you were sitting based off the chart, it was actually the opposite side. Tons of confusion with people sitting in other seats. Because of this the back up to even get through the tunnels to the stairs took forever, it would take at least 2 corps performances to even get to where you were sitting, except it wasn’t actually where you were sitting, so you had to either argue with other people or go back and start the process again. The “staff” were just local band parents who had no idea what was going on. The whole thing was just a mess.

This is great info.  Please keep it coming.  I suspect these Texas shows are some of the most attended shows outside of the Finals and the big regional shows.  The seat back info is alos helpful.

One week until I fly down for the Texas Triangle.  With all of the strong corps this year, I don't believe I could have picked a better year to sweat my b&*#%s off.

Who else is gong to all four shows over the five days?

HYDRATE!
