ripper Posted September 17, 2005 Share Posted September 17, 2005 Looking for feedback on the shows that your corps attended this past summer while on the Div II/III tour. Be nice to the Tour Event Partners :) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Slow Adam Posted September 18, 2005 Share Posted September 18, 2005 Manchester was a good show I thought, nice location (except fo the 15 minute waklk from the warmup area to the gate. They had free water for everyone coming off the field too. A highlight of the summer for me was that Brandt Crocker was working the gate on Sunday, and he did "On the field, from Santa Clara California..." for me. :D Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kansasDC Posted September 18, 2005 Share Posted September 18, 2005 Van Buren: Well run show, great crowd. Jackson: Excellent facility. Plenty of parking for corps. Newnan: Needed to advertise the show a little more. Hilton Head Island: see Newnan. Bridgeport: Sponsor support was unbelievable, with folks with the corps almost all the time to help out. Solved practice field issues very efficiently. Loved the stadium and the exhibition by Park City Pride. Manchester: Great field. Really awesome crowd. Souvie area was not so great. Brockton: Good parking. Very nice stadium. Appreciated the instant replay of the show on DVD for the members. Crowd for prelims was depressing. Finals was much larger, but not very enthusiastic. Housing was way too far away (2+ hour drive). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SoonerFan04 Posted September 18, 2005 Share Posted September 18, 2005 Van Buren: Well run show, great crowd. <{POST_SNAPBACK}> My hometown. :) I also thought it was pretty cool how instead of handling out something like plaques to the participating corps, they gave each corps a 5 gallon water cooler - I know ours came in handy for the rest of tour.

Carl306 Posted September 18, 2005 Share Posted September 18, 2005 (edited) Pittsfield - the baseball field. While I was kind of upset about the field being so far away from the actual stands, that encore right on the home plate was quite possibly the most fun I've ever had.

mellopet Posted September 18, 2005 Share Posted September 18, 2005 There should definitely be more shows around Pittsfield, because the crowd there was huge and beyond enthusiastic. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
