I see only one event but what that entails is not clear. Numerous organizations have referenced that they would be participating in whatever is offered from the parent organization as well as any local events. They are referencing DCI's term of a possible "bridge tour". (Similar to a 'bridge' or 'gap' loan used in the home mortgage industry.) Any & all DCI events during the summer of 2021 are being considered a 'bridge' to the 2022 season. 🤧😷🚚 Edited December 22, 2020 by keystone3ply cx Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not for full 150-member ensembles & a full 2019-type field show anyway. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That is my serious concern. What the hell is a "bridge tour". There is no tour in 2021. One event that is being discussed in Aug. 2021. Whether that happens is anyone's guess but lets stop this words on play. Edited December 22, 2020 by DFA1970 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Whether that happens is anyone's guess but lets stop this words on play. My understanding, from a reliable source, is the potential for a short "regional" tour leading up to the Indy event if the vaccines arrive in time & allow for more protection. Do I think it will happen? I wouldn't bet on it & please except my apologies for my expository use of the English language. I guess I could regress back to my Southern 'redneck' roots...

I think it’s legalese for “we don’t have a clue what is possible, but trying to be generic (IOW vague) to cover what happens” Edited December 22, 2020 by JimF-LowBari 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JimF-LowBari Posted December 22, 2020 Share Posted December 22, 2020 Have all Finals week events been held in the big as.... eh the oversized NFL stadium? Wondering if DCI has options based on crowd size and what the corps might be doing. IOW NFL stadium would be lousy place for Sound Sport/Mini corps or concert type events IMO Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
