The Company Officially Joins The 2017 DCI Tour
After more than a year of planning and a seven-hour flight, The Company has officially arrived in the United States and performed in their first show of the season!

On Tuesday, the corps from Derbyshire, England, made the long flight from Heathrow Airport in London to New York's John F. Kennedy Airport and immediately hit the road for a trip to Wal-Mart and their housing site, where many volunteers greeted them with sleeping supplies and food.

Check out travel photos below from The Company's Facebook page. It looks like the entire corps received an air mattress, pillow, and sleeping bag upon arrival -- some seriously well-deserved niceties in the drum corps world.



Competing in Drum Corps International's International Class, the corps had its first performance on Wednesday night in Clifton, NJ. The Company earned a 65.45, giving them an incredible start to their short tour across the Midwest, which wraps up next week in Indianapolis. You can catch The Company kicking off the first night of the DCI Eastern Classic in Allentown, PA, on Friday, August 4, streaming ONLY on FloMarching! The corps takes the field at 6:40 PM EDT directly following the national anthem -- do NOT miss out!


Before The Company heads to Allentown for an exciting performance on the big stage, they hit New York City for a well-deserved free day. In the meantime, check out their show release video and get ready to go crazy for... THE COMPANY!
