	Drum and bugle corps (modern) - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Corps are colorfully and distinctively uniformed, although guard members typically wear more theatrical costumes that are largely predicated on the theme of the corps' musical presentation, which usually changes from year to year.
		Until 2000, American drum and bugle corps hornlines were required to be pitched in the key of G. That year, the DCI rules congress passed a proposal to allow any key of bell-front brass instruments on the field.
		Corps on touring circuits particularly rely on volunteers due to the extra necessities which come with the tour: cooking and cleaning, providing mechanical maintenance, health and medical needs—all of which essential to getting the corps down the road to the next show.

		DCI and DCA corps are outgrowths - or groups which have "evolved from" - historic drum and bugle corps.
		Classic drum and bugle corps advocates maintain that DCI and DCA are NOT drum and bugle corps per se; instead, they are a form of marching brass bands who exploit the history and cachet of drum and bugle corps for monetary, marketing and political purposes.
		Corps are colorfully and distinctively uniformed, although guard members typically wear more theatrical costumes that are largely predicated on the theme of the corps' musical presentation.

		DCI has strict Victorian rules prohibiting the use of alcohol during corps functions (that secretly do not apply to free days, laundry stops, long bus trips and the drum line apartment).
		Watching the typical DCA field show is akin to sitting in the front row of a Metallica concert, right between the guy who hasn't stopped screaming since the opening band, and the girl who lost her shirt.
		The typical DCI staff member is an artist who has dedicated their life towards getting kids to perform their art on a football field, in the hopes that one day their art will be recognized as the work of a true genius.

	DCA History
		The primary function of DCA is to provide an organization of senior drum and bugle corps with rules and regulations, which provide for continuous progress and growth for senior corps.
		With DCA taking control of the rules that corps are judged by, it has been critical that DCA find the best possible judging coordinators to advise on the appropriate judging system for senior corps, recruit and educate experienced, qualified judges and administer the entire judging program.
		Not to be forgotten, the current DCA corps and their directors have the difficult task of protecting our heritage and maintaining DCA in its proper place of leadership in the activity.

	Drumcorps FAQ 1/6 What is drum corps?; DCI; online
		The closest kind of group to a drum corps that is not a drum corps is the marching band, but the performance levels of the top drum corps is in general higher than top marching bands.
		DCA corps are often called Senior corps and are open to people of any age.
		DCI was organized in 1972 as a reaction to the "harsh" way the VFW (Veterans of Foreign War) and AL (American Legion) were governing the activity.

	Welcome to Drum Corps World
		With the recent growth and surge in popularity of senior corps and DCA, I recently was able to interview DCA President Gil Silva.
		The cooperation from the directors of DCA and the leadership that Mickey had instituted with Red Corso as treasurer and Dan Rippon as secretary made the transition possible.
		DCA has traditionally been in the Northeast, but at some point, someone is going to put in a bid to host DCA outside of its traditional area.

	Drum and Bugle Corps
		Today, the DCI governs the world of competitive drum corps, where 14- to 21-year-olds spend their summers sweating through hundreds of practice hours, traveling thousands of miles and playing in some of America’s grandest stadiums.
		Struve, who was also named 2005 director of the year for the DCI Central region, said the DCI board was impressed with the Blue Stars’ 2005 travel schedule and show and their third-place finish in Division II at the world championships.
		Each corps is made up of high school and college students who began practicing in May for the exhausting six week schedule that takes them by bus to cities nationwide.

	Drumcorps FAQ 6/6 DCA - senior corps info
		This was the start of the Drum Corps Associates a.k.a DCA and it continued the legacy created by the V.F.W. which discontinued its senior championship after 1962.
		As the class name implies, these corps march in parades or perform at "standstills." Although many drum corps nuts do not consider these units as part of the continuum, they do provide an alternative for people who want to be part of drum corps, but cannot afford the time the field (DCA) units demand.
		Most parade corps will not travel more than 2 hours from their HQ so it is easy to pack up the family and drag them to the various parades.

		The size of the frontline can vary considerably among corps; anywhere between 8-15 members is not uncommon.
		For example, a corps with 135 members (such as a "maxed out" DCI Division I corps) generally has 7-9 snares, 3-5 tenors, and 5 basses.
		Zingali left a legacy in creating bold new forms of marching, with the first signs of his desire to change the rules in 1980, the year the 27th Lancers user a program with standard symmetrical drill that was rotated and translated, bending the status quo for the era.
