Suviduvi Posted May 19, 2007 Share Posted May 19, 2007 Per the Academy webiste the DCI Phoenix regional is to be held at Arizona State University Sun Devil Stadium Aug 4th 6:30 pm What a great opportunity for Arizona Drum Corps fans and high school marching bands to see some of the best DIV 1 drum corps. Unless you plan on going to finals in Pasadena, this is a ONCE IN A LIFE TIME EVENT We will never see 13 DIV 1 corps in Phoenix for LONG LONG LONG LONG TIME!

drumcat Posted May 19, 2007 Share Posted May 19, 2007 Untill next years Phoenix regional. That's a HUGE assumption. In 30+ years, there's never been a "big" show in Arizona. Most shows are 4-5 corps, if there's a show that year. That's the whole state. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's the whole state. I heard from my sources that the regional event will be sticking around for a few years. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
floatdude Posted May 20, 2007 Share Posted May 20, 2007 It out of the way for most corps, I lived there for 28 years and like the guys said before only 4-8 corps show up. So Acadmey has to work at it to get more corps to show up every year. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
raphael18 Posted May 20, 2007 Share Posted May 20, 2007 It's all about the tour - and it is highly unlikely that the main tour will go through Pheonix again any time soon. At best they will get the cali corps, and any corps that are out there on a west coast tour. Gas just costs to much to pull all of the corps out there for one show.

juice Posted May 20, 2007 Share Posted May 20, 2007 (edited) It's just too bad it has to be held at Sun Devils Stadium. Outside+Phoenix+August= <**> Edited May 20, 2007 by juice Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
drumcat Posted May 20, 2007 Share Posted May 20, 2007 It's just too bad it has to be held at Sun Devils Stadium. Outside+Phoenix+August= <**> Trust me; it's 100x better than a high school stadium. Hopefully it's a nice day, but there are a lot of places worse than SDS in Phx... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And it's not nearly as bad as the div II show in Lake Havasu. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
XxDrumCorpsFanxX Posted May 21, 2007 Share Posted May 21, 2007 Well hey atleast it didn't get canceled...no matter where its at... And it'd be sweet if it could stick around for a few years...show em that something can happen in Arizona, since it seems like many out there believe nothing can come from Arizona.
