#103064 - 01/29/06 12:09 PM 2007 DCI World Championships Location
Hulka Registered: 07/09/01 Loc: Frankfort, KY	A DLO exclusive! As a DCI Season Pass subscriber I just got an exclusive notification from DCI regarding the location of the World Championships in 2007. Without further adieu, the official location is... (drum roll please)... the Rose Bowl in Pasadena, CA. From the Tournament of Champions in '04 I understand there were some complaints that the field not being real close to the seats but overall I think this is a great decision. However, I am interested in seeing how DCI will address the fact that many corps will have a hard time affording the long trek to the west coast. The only thing I can think they are planning is to subsidize some of the costs involved in getting a corps out there. After the full public announcement is made perhaps details such as this will be brought to light. _________________________ Hulka

EnigmaticRonin Registered: 11/27/04 Loc: Los Angeles, CA	YES! Thank goodness I'm a UCLA student (with senior friends who have cars)! I'll finally have a chance to see the world championships..but wow. I didn't know they'd make this kind of decision so early. That's also a good point Hulka, I certainly hope it doesn't end up with mostly western Corps (not that there's anything bad about them, I'm just a big fan of the Cavaliers and Madison Scouts) _________________________ UCLA Tenorline 06-08

Think_4ur_selfer Registered: 09/27/04 Loc: Gypsum, Colorado	I don't think it will end up mostly western corps at all. Besides, I live right down the 14 freeway from Pasadena. (I know none of you know what I'm talking about) This is good, I plan on going. Well, I hope to be IN Champs that year, but we'll see. _________________________ [color:"red"]LnHS Drumline 04-06, Tenors-Snare-Captain[/color] [color:"blue"]The only thing one needs when drumming is the right mentality.

Insomniac Registered: 09/24/03 Loc: Ann Arbor, Michigan	you know... TOC didnt stop any of the non cali corps from going, they had the option to say no. my theiery is the TOC was used to test which stadiums were the best venues for drum corps. the ONLY thing wrong withthe rose bowl is the distance to the stands, San diego had more problems, as did San Jose... the rose bowl has plently of lot spaec plently of seating, entrances and exits will be simple, It will be a GREAT place. Though with the West coast, a small rise in dies is expected, I dont think more than 1-200 a member ( thats another 110,000 in the bank for a 110 member corps ( the smallest in D1 last year... and I believe ther is a plan to help the smaller corps( d2/3out)

kevin_fu Registered: 06/16/00 Loc: Southern MD	Golf? Whaaa? If they plan the regular season right, then it may not be so bad if the tour made the corps end up in the west coast in August... but the "Eastern Classic" has always been the last regional before finals. I hope they don't change the date of that. _________________________ -Kevin Instructor/Tech Northern HS - Owings, MD \| Winter '03 - Fall '04 Patuxent HS - Lusby, MD \| Fall '06 Huntingtown HS - Huntingtown, MD \| Fall '07 Project PIW - Pittsburgh, PA \| '05 - Cymbals Promote Tolerance\|Go Redskins!

luggage Registered: 05/03/04 Loc: Huntington, WV	Of course, this comes right after I told my parents "Even if I make DCI next year, Finals will be pretty close. They won't hold Finals all the way out on the West Coast." _________________________ Until you spread your wings, you'll have no idea how far you can walk.

Hulka Registered: 07/09/01 Loc: Frankfort, KY	Well, I'm old so count me in for the golf outing. I'm not any good but I do have a good time playing. When I found out about the DCI meeting this past weekend being held in Pasadena the first thing I thought about was that was probably a good indication that the powers-that-be wanted to hold finals at the Rose Bowl. _________________________ Hulka

prdrmmr08 Registered: 06/24/05 Loc: Crystal Lake, IL	The one thing I like about the championship, is that it is always moved around the country. Everyone is able to see it at least sometime near them and would not have to travel very far. I'm glad that it's in Madison this year being an Illinois'n. Hope its a good show in '07!!! _________________________ ---------------------------------------------------- Prairie Ridge High School Marching Wolfpack 04-05...Cymbals...(Music of Chuck Mangione) 05-06...4th Bass...(Latin Dances) 06-07...Drum Major...(Music of John Barnes Chance) 07-08...Drum Major...(Cirque Du Soleil: La Nouba)

Anonymous Unregistered	It makes me happy that DCI is finally going to have finals on this side of the US... Its sweet that here in Arizona we only get one show a year and the only corps that come that are any good are BD and SCV... oh and of course The Academy. It just stinks that my favorite corps, the cavies, has recently gotten rid of its drumline staff and hired Jim Casella... This stinks cuz thats why l loved the cavies; l loved the way they played and their technique... yay l finally get to see the cavies l have loved for so long, but they wont look nothing like the corps lve loved for so many years and they never will again... crap that sucks bad.... guess ill have to go watch bluecoats then.
