Audio fragments Troopers' show removed
Those who have ordered this year's Drum Corps International DVD will get a 'silent surprise': a small part of the Troopers show has no sound. The video can still be viewed, but the audio is missing.
Two audio segments of the Troop's 2010 "Wanted" show, each lasting about 15 seconds, have been removed from the video recording. Although the visual performance and drill formations will be shown on the video in their entirety, the music for that portion of the performance has been silenced in the editing process. This was due to the inability to secure the necessary approvals for including it on the DVD even though all other required licensing applications were approved.
DCI has faced this problem before. Fans may remember similar compliance issues with small portions of last year's Troopers performance as well as the 2008 Phantom Regiment show.
