2CoolVK Posted September 7, 2005 Share Posted September 7, 2005 You can go to a sho wand see corps live. You can watch in a movie theater on the big screen> You can watch on ESPN 2 You can download drum corps off DCI.org You can buy DVDs with 5.1 surround, muliple camera angles, numerous audio tracks and special features. You can buy CDs. To sit and complain about what you see on ESPN 2 is a waste of time. You may not like it, but it is what it is. And it may not be for you, but it is for someone out there. Surely something on the list above floats your boat. It's one piece of the puzzle. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sobe Posted September 7, 2005 Share Posted September 7, 2005 Call me cold hearted or whatever, but I don't really care about all the behind the scenes, human interest stories. I never have and never will, whether it is the olympics or drum corps. <{POST_SNAPBACK}> It shows... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I never have and never will, whether it is the olympics or drum corps. Just show me the performance and let the emotions evolve from that alone. If I want all the touchy feely stuff, I know where I can find the Lifetime network. <{POST_SNAPBACK}> Absolutely. Stop telling me how I should feel. Let me decide after watching their show how I should feel. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CVSoprano Posted September 7, 2005 Share Posted September 7, 2005 First of all, I want to say that it's GREAT to see DCI on ESPN2, but the messageI'm afraid people are getting is that the drum corps aren't ENTERTAINING enough so we're going to show twice as much of these background stories as we are of "The Game". I'm a band director that urged my kids to stay up and watch the show tonight. I already know what I'm going to hear tomorrow..."Why didn't they show more of the shows?" I'll tell them "good question." It's too bad DCI didn't have enough faith in the corps shows to give them an adequate amount of time. THIS IS DISAPPOINTING, but it's better than nothing. I just hoped for more. <{POST_SNAPBACK}> I kinda feel like I'm in the same boat - except I forward a copy of the DCI e-mail advertisement to all my co-workers. I may have some "'splaining to do"...
