audiodb Posted March 22, 2006 Share Posted March 22, 2006 I'd think Louisville would be palatable to most of the DCA South units. Note that it is also likely to be one of the closest show opportunities for Mon Valley Express and LakeShoremen. Could be an interesting mix. Hope you would pick one of the post-DCI weekends, 'cause then I know I could be there myself. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sopmedic Posted March 22, 2006 Share Posted March 22, 2006 I know I would love to go ALL over for shows. But it is so hard to pull off with an All age Corps. The cost alone would be a lot to handle for most if not all the corps. PLUS unlike junior corps we have to go back to WORK on Moinday morning and be productive! I LOVE when corps like the Corpvets and Renegades make their way to our shows and I can only imagine the Logistics behind moving that many people. My hat goes off to all of them. Unfortunately though I think Money definately plays the biggest factor. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Boy, going back to work on Monday morning IS a drag after being on a plane all night. "I LOVE when corps like the Corpvets and Renegades make their way to our shows and I can only imagine the Logistics behind moving that many people.

It is the biggest rush for us, one we can't put into words. "Unfortunately though I think Money definately plays the biggest factor." It sure does. But, since it's pretty much what we have to deal with every single year, it's normality for us. Which makes it difficult to hear complaining from the other direction.

Sopmedic Posted March 24, 2006 Share Posted March 24, 2006 I understand. and I hope I didn't come accross as complaining about it. Heck I wish we COULD travel accross the country like Renegades! Just I know from my standpoint it would be tough. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jeff Ream Posted March 24, 2006 Share Posted March 24, 2006 the cool thing about the NC show last year was you had calfornia, NE corps and Southern corps. if a midwest corps had made it, it would have been perfect. i remember going to a show in Chicago in 89...the logistics were insane. i i applaud every corps who takes the gamble Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
