Course of Empire Concert History

Course of Empire was a hard-edged alternative music group based in Dallas, Texas from 1988 to 1998. In their early years, large drums would be placed throughout the audience as a means to eliminate the separation between performer and audience. This practice was stopped when the drums ceased to be played by ever increasing crowds, becoming dangerous missiles instead.
