drumlaw80 Posted March 22, 2007 Share Posted March 22, 2007 Because of the outstanding quality of the DCA product, and the inexpensive start-up cost of forming a senior corps, DCA could potentially transform senior corps into one of the most popular and commercially viable performing arts activities in the world. Unfortunately, DCA is destined to remain small and relatively insignificant in the entertainment world unless and until its internal culture of selfish hostility among its member corps can be changed. Currently, the sole and exclusive focus of a majority of the corps is winning DCA -- or in extreme few cases, harming other DCA corps -- with little to no regard for what is inherently best for the activity. This is not a comment about the administration of DCA (i.e., the Board of Directors), but rather the DCA corps themselves, and it is based on first-hand personal experience and observation. Furthermore, these comments only represent my personal views, and I do not present them on behalf of any third party or organization. Will DCA win, or will a DCA corps win? The choice is ours. Let the usual personal attacks commence ... Lee Rudnicki Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JeromeyBush Posted March 22, 2007 Share Posted March 22, 2007 Who knows what the future will hold?DCA is a comepetitive organization,right.So I would expect all corps to think of themselves first.No personal attacks from me.They are much like opinions.......

brassomaniac Posted March 22, 2007 Share Posted March 22, 2007 (edited) I would be very intertested in knowing what the Renegades organization is doing to cash in on this great commercial opportunity. I think that many of us would be willing to see just what this is, and to follow their lead in taking advantage of it. So, please; provide your idea in more detail!

AlbionNY Drum Line Posted March 22, 2007 Share Posted March 22, 2007 I'll just stick with continuing to make this drum line the best Rochester has seen in a while. To everyone else good luck, see you out there! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The point is not about one corps. It is quite the opposite, in fact. The point being made is about what one can achieve working together. Look at what DCI has done over the last ten years, with an arguably inferior product, from an audience appreciatetion standpoint. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Very true. It the nature of the beast. Look at what the Bridgemen are doing by taking the competitive factor out of it and just entertaining. They also help other corps - Surf and recently Sunrisers by loaning them some horns. Maybe Alumni Corps are the new DCA/DCI. ^0^ ^0^ ^0^ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
