Rudy Wiedoeft Posted January 8, 2023 Share Posted January 8, 2023 Does anyone else see the irony of Dan Acheson's retirement article featuring a photo including dozens of corps buttons from folded DCI groups. I am not saying that Dan was responsible for these groups' demise, but it seemed ironic and maybe a little tone-deaf. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gunther Posted January 9, 2023 Share Posted January 9, 2023 And just what, in your definition of the word, is the irony? I think you've vaguely said something else but haven't expressed it clearly. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you think it's situationally ironic and/or tone deaf, then that's exactly what you're implying, actually. No need to be coy. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Or Drum Corps buttons, many from dead Drum Corps. In fact, most Corps are dead & in the past. The sad truth is that many of them died while DCI was the premiere sanctioning body. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Could be a photo taken in his office, or some other wall of DCI HQ. It's corps buttons. BFD. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
