Jurassic Lancer

And you weren’t a pain in the ###. Everyone knew who the pain in the ##### were, and they weren’t pursued

Not really. It’s just like what @Terri Schehr said, march a few years and you get to know a lot of people. They go to bigger and better corps and staff ask them if they know anybody good who would fit in. That’s how I moved up. I had friends up and down the top twelve when I marched in 79. One friend wanted to know if I would march mello for SCV and at the same time this rifle mentioned to GZ that I was a decent sop. I chose 27 mostly because I loved them and I could march sop. It was a small world back then.

Exactly

I was in the same boat. I was recruited by a staff member to march Oakland Crusaders and I just showed up and was put in lead sopranos. Then, a rifle from Crusaders went to 27th and told George Zingali about me, I got a call and poof, I was a 27th Lancer.

I’m not sure … he isn’t going to A&M, but he sure looked like John Cooper yesterday

How could it not be?

In 1979 and 80, the show started with 27 for nothing

And everyone in my family likes the Lions! It will make for a peaceful Thanksgiving

Unless you competed against them, in which case they were the Saggy-Baggies

I believe what the truncated tour, much fewer shows and economic realities are telling me is corps have decided that IAAI. (It’s all about Indy)

And that wasn’t really unusual back then.

I know. You even sit behind me!

That’s something I didn’t think about … does DCA go with the flo now?

I loved Finleyville in 75

Probably

We’ll be staying in an AirBnB again, just like we do in Indy

Bluecoats had 19 shows last year as well

Artifacts

After all the bad news coming from the activity of late, it’s nice to see drum corps at its best! Kudos Bluecoats!

Ew

Honestly, this happened all the time during the DCE season. We were all piled on top of each other. But 27 was mostly last because, well, busses.

I knew it!

Timing is everything

Do they work for Twix during the off-season?

I think you will be happy with this show’s lineup
