DCI North Texas 2019

[Mean Green Maniac]

Any fellow drum corps fans here? The annual Drum Corps International North Texas event is coming to Apogee Stadium (Thursday, 18 Jul 2019 7:00 PM CT) for the first time ever, beginning this summer! 

Tickets on sale now: https://www.dci.org/events/2019-dci-north-texas 

This is a great community event for Denton, and will be great exposure for UNT and the Athletics department, and will no doubt serve as a recruiting tool for high school band students. If you need or want a reason to come out to Apogee in the blistering 100+ degree TX heat in the middle of summer, this event is a real treat.

I confess I am a DCI nerd.  Am going to try to make this.

These are a blast.  Buy a ticket and check it out if you haven't ever seen one of these.

They're great! A place to go where people love the lack of pageantry.

Cool! Yeah I'm excited to finally be in a new venue, the event really outgrew CH Collins after a few years. How long have you been a fan and got a favorite corp?

I follow DCI sporadically, but I first saw a competition back in the early 80's.  Have watched a bunch of competitions on TV when they are televised.  I kept missing the shows at Collins, so glad to have this heads up.  Blue Devils, Vanguard and PR are probably my favorites to watch.  I will be pulling for the Crossmen though, due to their Texas ties.

That's cool! I got hooked just over 10 years ago, been going to the Denton show ever since. There is a great lineup this year so don't want to miss it! The DCI tour premiere is broadcast live in local theaters and is set for June 20th, its good chance to see whats in store for the season while being indoors lol 

I'm a bit of a big fan and enjoy watching the classic and "old skool" shows pre 2000's. I'm a big SCV fan, but PR is my all-time fave! Crossmen had a great season last summer and I'll be excited to see them again as the make another finals run!
