DCI Show – Bristol Rhode Island
We took a trip up to the DCI show in Bristol Rhode Island the other day.
Arriving early we saw the flags whipping in the wind while the PA Speakers played John Philip Sousa. About an hour before the show the lightning kicked up and the rain poured down. Like many other fans, I took refuge under the stands where we received an extra few gallons of rain funneled from the seats above. Everybody was soaked and happy.
Paul, the MC for the show was very likable as he introduced the show.
It was amazing to see that all the corps were able to hold their footing in the wet grass. I think this is a real testament to their marching skills.
Later in the evening as a band of mist gathered up by the stadium lights, the Carolina Crown put on an amazing performance. Their green plumes stood out as they marched and played with precision. Because their routine required some contact with the ground, their uniforms were quite muddy as they left the field.
The capacity crowd was quite lively even with the rain and everyone was treated to a fireworks show as they left the stadium.
We had a pizza feast on the way home. All in all a nice night of drum corps.
