Inclement weather Itinerary:

Normally, in the case of bad or threatening weather; practice will occur indoors; there will be a normal dinner break; and in most cases we will dress and go through warm up (again indoors). A determination to perform or not perform will be made at the point when we would normally have to leave for the parade or the stadium. There are several performance options, among them are:

1) No performance, or no parade performance

2) Pre-game only

3) Pre-game in street clothes

4) Entire show in street clothes

5) Normal show (in costume)

6) Normal show, but leave after halftime

It is also possible for bad weather to strike while we are in the stands at the game. If this occurs, Mr. Taton will make an announcement. We will attempt to be prepared by having a way to cover pit percussion, guitars, amps, and any other instruments that would be damaged by rain. In the event of lightning, we will immediately move the safest location possible.
