Which could be really exciting as far as what corps may try to do this year for their repertoire, and possibly bring back some classic tunes. Crossmen are working on exciting things. See you in Indy. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I sincerely hope that at some point other countries participate. But BD International is (are) going to Switzerland! 😁 Edited March 13, 2021 by keystone3ply cx Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They did include a caveat statement of being able to travel in safe conditions, etc. Just thought it was interesting; hope they're able to travel! 😷 https://www.facebook.com/thebluedevils/photos/a.87398838144/10158856665858145/ https://bluedevils.org/programs/international-corps/ Edited March 13, 2021 by keystone3ply cx 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We believe that what we have planned for this summer is undoubtedly one of the most unique and rewarding experiences ever offered by a marching arts organization.” In other words they’re not going to waste the organizations money attending a meaningless silly event in sterile town USA just to keep DCI afloat. They’re actually providing an lifetime experience for their members. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
