4 DAYS TILL DCI SCHEDULE RELEASE?


Recommended Posts

The concourse at the Alamodome is tough during intermission when everything is wide open.  The first year I went to the show there (5-7 years ago), the dome was renovating much of the concession area on the concourse and reduced the width by at least half with plywood walls the length of the building. Can't say I look forward to that again, but the lineup still points me there.

 

Like others, I'm hoping that the lineups for each show are still incomplete as I find it odd that SCV is not doing the first week southern California leg of the tour. Hopefully this is not a negotiated absence due to cost concerns.  But similarly, Troopers are not currently on the Ogden show lineup either, a show that is relatively close to their home base.  I've tried to check back a few times today to see if there are updates, but it appears that the DCI site is crashed at the moment.

Boise ID
Renton WA
Tri-Cities WA
Camas WA
Normal IL (O)
White Lake MI (O)
Sun Prairie WI (O)

Contrast that with only 9 new events:

As the DCI site is down, I found the full summer tour on FloMarching - News.

Dates are listed, but not days.  

I tried to look at the schedule first before reading any reactions. But somewhere a “no shows in Florida again” popped up. Likely before I reached the Flo site.

Thrilled to see the Troopers heading to the Midwest for several early season shows.

Gobble gobble.

Troopers starting 2023 much earlier than 2022.  Looking forward to seeing them

Tomball is the Houston show, using the same stadium as last summer

There was no show in Lawrence,  Massachusetts last year, but it IS back this year,  and with a great lineup.

The Tour Premier in Detroit is gone as well, having been replaced with the Midwest Premier in some undisclosed venue in western Michigan. The lineup is not as robust as the previous aforementioned Tour Premiers. I am not at all thrilled with this tour. 
 

I used to go to several early tour events. I may not see anything this year until just before Finals.

Plainfield, Michigan hosted DCI many, many years ago - so I’ll count that as a possibility for the Western Michigan show.

Kalamazoo has also hosted several times. The stadium is near the town’s Amtrak station.

Battle Creek is central/east, so not likely. In the stands a kajillion years ago, I remember baking in the evening sun at one Battle Creek show.

Ypsilanti is too east to be west.

Enjoying the mystery. No matter the outcome, it will be near a Tim Hortons.
