Kingston, NY -Saturday, August 3


Recommended Posts

OK... since I'm home for the evening, and on the passing chance that three or four other people might be interested, since everyone else in the drum corps universe is focused on DCI East...LOL... I figured I'd start a thread about tonight's "March of Champions" DCA show in Kingston, NY.  7 PM ET start time.

The DCA lineup:  (Not sure if this is order of appearance):

Sunrisers - Long Island, NY
Hurricanes - Seymour, CT
Fusion Core - Morris County, NJ
Bushwackers - Princeton, NJ
Hawthorne Caballeros - Hawthorne, NJ
White Sabers - Dansville, NY

In exhibition: Saints Brigade, Hawthorne Caballeros Alumni

According to AccuWeather, the forecast looks good. Certainly cooler than here in tropical Baltimore. :tongue: Best wishes to all the performers tonight!

There's a second DCA show on the schedule, according to the DCA website... the "Drum Corps Expo" in St. Peter, MN.

The Govenaires are the only corps listed in competition. Several exhibitions are also scheduled.

Anyone who is there, or anyone at home with nothing to do, feel free to chime in here with some thoughts if you have a chance. 

To keep the crickets company.  :laughing:

I think Lobster Mac and Cheese is overrated, Lobster shouldn't be smothered in cheap cheese, it's delicious on its own.

Those are my thoughts for today.

I'm with you on this. 

Lobster with just a bit of drawn butter... no need to mess with anything else.

Hey... maybe a food thread will be more fun!!!  :tongue:

A food thread will most certainly be more interesting than the show, that's for sure!

Heh... when I had DCA gigs, pretty much every year someone would ask me, "So... are you working Kingston again?"

Fact is, I have never worked that show, and haven't actually been in Kingston since 2004. And I think it was 1978 before that.  :blink:

That joins places like Bridgeport, anywhere else in Connecticut, and Lewisburg on the "shows I never worked but folks thought I was there every year" list. :tongue:

So far, looks like 8:30 start. These corps all REALLY want a score

Wow... so the AccuWeather forecast was... well... inaccurate?  :tongue:

Let's hope the show goes on.  I hear ya, those corps do not need another rainout.
