George Hopkins wrote:Visually, the corps will be clad in all-white DeMoulin uniforms with maroon accents such as those first worn by the drum majors many years ago and reprised again in the 2011 "Angels and Demons" program. The all-white motif will communicate the show’s "12.25" program.

From a Blue Stars mailing: In 2012, the corps will perform a show entitled "The Blue World" about the sea and the people, creatures and myths that surround the world's vast oceans. It will contain many melodies familiar to our fans and the drum corps activity and I believe it will be another fan favorite for the corps!

Rumored: Bluecoats doing selections, if not a whole show, from... "Phantom of the Opera"
