Fred Windish Posted April 23, 2020 Share Posted April 23, 2020 . . . 2021 drum corps performing with 25% fewer marching members. minimal props. smaller pit equipment requirements. multi-year uniform designs. 3 year old brass and percussion instruments. limited, basic amplification. occasional re-use of a music selection the following year. just one extended traveling tour. ____ I sure will ! Older, long term, fans jumped out of their seats screaming for many years with that same product. Who knew? 🤔 3 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OldSnareDrummer Posted April 23, 2020 Share Posted April 23, 2020 Under some of those conditions, will probably cheer louder. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DrummerParent Posted April 23, 2020 Share Posted April 23, 2020 I can’t imagine fans noting a difference in new vs 3 year old instruments. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Continental Posted April 23, 2020 Share Posted April 23, 2020 (edited) Imagine how the audience will react to the first corps that performs after the hiatus - let alone all the other corps that perform. The audience will be putty in their hands. Dogs and cats on DCP will unite. Ok - that last part may be stretching it a bit.

JimF-LowBari Posted April 23, 2020 Share Posted April 23, 2020 Always enjoyed the smaller corps anyway. More interesting when you put on a show with what you have available instead of having everything to choose from. More interesting show design imo 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Super Don-O Posted April 23, 2020 Share Posted April 23, 2020 So you're asking if I would cheer for a 1980's or '90's show? Heck yeah I would! 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ranintothedoor Posted April 23, 2020 Share Posted April 23, 2020 I think more than just drum corps will be getting back to basics. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

N.E. Brigand Posted April 23, 2020 Share Posted April 23, 2020 4 hours ago, Fred Windish said: multi-year uniform designs. The 2021 uniforms might be unique, if there's no vaccine until fall of next year. Why don't we just put everyone in a space outfit or something like that?

cmhs59 Posted April 23, 2020 Share Posted April 23, 2020 Sounds like Japan to me. And I don't have a problem with that at all. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
