OK, listen up!

We've all worked on this and had a ball doing it!

This is an awesome thread that we should not let go of... we should carry it on for the next generation to learn from and add on to and eventually, take over...We pay homage, share memories ...

C'mon! Where are you folks? Participate! This is a great photo to work with...

I know the season has kicked in and you are all adjusting but, pop in once in a while and help keep this... legacy alive! Please?

well hell, I dont know of any of them, so I have nothing to say

OK. My official guess for that cat is:

Johnny Guarino, the best high note guy the Skyliners ever had (and they had a million of them). JG was the Godfather to youngsters like Grass and Edney. Few buglers in drum corps today play with that kind of gusto.

Correct! A really great horn, but he would never play a solo; he would play in duets, trios, etc., but never solo. It was a personal thing.

OK, on to #4. Hey, everyone should have some sort of hint or story for this guy!

He had his own Italian Specialties Food business.

You'll have to refhresh my memory on that venture Elphie ... Joe and **** taught a lot of corps together ... Joe invested in ****'s Italian Specialties ... Joe ran a chain of fabric stores for his father-in-law and **** made deliveries ... Joe and **** worked at Bobby Findley's used car lot Victory Auto Sales ... but I don't recall any Music Store ...
