Cavaliers 96.....cham-pag-nia sparkle yamahas And for some reason those purple premiers with black p/c Phantom marched with were pretty sweet.

USA free floaters are #1!

They now use IP Brett Kuhn indoor sticks as the secondary. Mac. now chants BLOOO!

To add a little “beef” to a tenor stick try adding a few extra rings of tape around the butt.

How many people did Jester have on the field?

IP makes a short tenor stick.

Impulse 96 or 97. Good stuff!

If you have some time and a steady hand it works great (liquid nails)! But the big disadvantage is that you can’t change the dampening once its set.

Closer to the center eh.....Like a SCV style muffling? I prefer csugrad's way; attaching it to the shell via liquid nails or such. But if you like the sound of the "closer to center" on the higher basses you may want to contact someone in SCV and ask them how they do it. They seem to get pretty good results. As for the glue breakdown...? you got me?

Liquid Nails, Strong stuff...

XL makes a carrier that is able to fit on any snare.

The Caption head is Pat Aman. He was the Troopers Caption head prior to the Knights. I know he worked under Hardimon for one or two years with BK. As for his marching experience???? I think Troopers but I'm not positive. Their move to Pearl was two mabye three years ago.....They used them for the "toon" Show. The SCV style snares ??? Mabye the staff just thinks it is a good idea.

The Evean's yellow polyester/airmid thing is no good. Unless you want a snarey cardboard box sound! To Evean's benefit the head does have a GREAT feel! But I would go with either of the Max's from Remo just for the sound qualities.

Listen a little closer to the Cavie parts. Their hardest parts are usually played below MF. Try to find the 15/8 measures with tuplet 9's or the crazy crec. accel. with dupal parradiddle diddles into triplet rolls!(02) Very cool stuff!

Finale = <**> It's great once you get it but untill then.. Someone should make a Finale for dummies book!
