For Everyone Who Loves Music and Competeition...

[Brisully]

This coming weekend, for many cities in the U.S., many PBS stations are showing a 1 1/2 hour show about this years Deum Corps International competition. This is the event that I attended in Madison, WI, and was one of the most unbelievable musical experiences of my life.

In Chicago, the show is going to be broadcast this Saturday, at 9:00 PM, on Ch. 11 WTTW, and for the late night DISers, on Sunday, Sept 1st at 2:00 AM.

Here is a link on the DCI website that has cities/times:

The format for this year's broadcast is new, but it should be very exciting. You won't be sorry that you watched this.

This is the same type of performance that you gave us a link for a few weeks ago? That was awesome, I'm going to see if I can't watch this.

Thanks for the reminder, Brian. Now, will you be so good as to bump this up on Saturday today?!

Wow. Thanks for the info! I love the drum corp competitions. One of my friends in high school and some of my old babysitters were part of the Phantom Regiment several years ago and I used to go and watch them play and compete. I can't wait to see it this year even its on t.v instead of in person!

Consider it done! I just went to program my VCR to tape this but, it wasn't there at 9AM!! Re-read Brian's post and, programmed taping for 9PM!! I may not watch this when it's on but, it'll be taped!

(Doctor P, got any cheat sheets for Brian's test?)



Looking forward to this, Brian!

Just remember the "Big Green Machine" and the "Cavaliers" and you should do fine on the test!
