    I love the professionalism of the first question "tell me what the hell is going on over here?"

    Marched the show in Allentown (1980- Spirit of Atlanta) I still remember Float
    introducing us to Will Rapp. This show seemed to be more important than most
    others for some reason and the atmosphere was different. They had this board
    with the prelim scores posted as I remember. The crowd there seemed to really
    appreciate all of the corps regardless of their favorite. I kind of remember the
    walk up to the entrance gate and seeing all of the fans hanging out. I was a young
    20 year old who had never been to Pennsylvania. It was cool to see people cheering
    as they heard the music from Atlanta and the big brass sound that we brought
    from the deep south. Memories.

      If you have the chance to play, do it. And let the Army pay for it all.

      In 88' we had an age out that was active army, save your leave and work with the corps staff.. I'm sure most will accommodate..

      I also decided to enlist in the Army instead of marching DCI with the Cadets. Since you’re in the Reserves, you can still march DCA or save up your leave days to still march DCI.

    I remember my first show performing in Allentown and having to push a marimba or any front ensemble instruments up that hill was a killer. But man was it worth it in the end.

    I hate to be a doomer, but the 2022 edition of DCI at ATown was a disaster. The seating has always been bad, none of the aisles are painted, and you are too far from the action. Worse than that, the bathrooms are utterly not designed for modern use and inefficient, and on a 90 degree day THEY RAN OUT OF WATER!!! Been going to Atown for 25 years, but this was our last. A terrible fan experience from top to bottom
