Will drum corps ever come back?

And if 2021 doesnt happen (or happens minimally) for most corps, even if 2022 comes back with no corps missing a beat on filling their corps, be ready for a step down for most corps as well in 2022. Given the average member marches 2-3 years and we'll have had basically 2 years off, the vet numbers in most corps will be atrocious. Gonna be mostly corps with 90+% rookies out there, which obviously will present a lot of challenges for every group. 

    Also those new members will have 2 less years of Marching Band. So some will be starting from ground zero.

They’ve got spirit, why not you?

I can imagine it now; DCI 2024

In the middle of their show Blue Devils form an arc.  Cheerleads, Dance Teams, (whatever) leap from the sidelines doing backflips and summersaults on their way to the center.  B.D. plays the latest hit from Lizzo while said cheerleaders do a choreographed dance routine.  They scamper off the field and B.D. wins their 22nd championship.

Shoot me.

Don’t expect them to ask for your approval! 

I'm sure based on Varsitys business model they wont ask anyone for permission

Heh...when i was in HS, one of our newer school didn't have a stadium, so they played their home games at OUR school.

One time they played us -- as the visiting team -- and their people started that spirit cheer.  My band responded "We've got a stadium yes we do!  We've got a stadium, how 'bout you?"

*Cricket, Cricket, Cricket*
