IntheMood Posted August 14, 2010 Share Posted August 14, 2010 Thank You all for a great season. Leave everything on the field today. Will the Colt Cadets bounce back and take the 9th position back? Dean Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
IntheMood Posted August 14, 2010 Author Share Posted August 14, 2010 (edited) 35 years ago to the day, DCI held the first ever Class A(OC today) All Girl Finals. 5 Corps from each Div. made Finals. All girl Finals- St.Igatius- 69.650 Capitol Aires- 66.150 Fire-etters- 62.050 Ventures- 53.700 Socialites- 44.70 Class A Finals- Cadets of Greece- 71.350 Charioteers- 68.600 Floridians- 64.75 Marksmen- 63.350 Glassmen- 63.050 Thank you to all current OC Corps members for carrying on this Great Div's Rich and Proud History and Traditions. I am not an Alum from any Current Corps in the OC Div. I am however, an Alum of the OC Div. and the Glassmen A Shout Out to the Dutch Boys. I have not forgotten about you all. Nothing can change the fact that I have Loved this Corps the first time I seen and competed against them in 74. By the way, there were more Class A corps who competed at the US OPEN then at DCI in 75. Will there be anyone at Finals today to give us play by play?

kevingamin Posted August 14, 2010 Share Posted August 14, 2010 I am also a Glassmen alum, so it's appropriate that we celebrate the anniversary of the birth of what is now Open Class by looking back at a corps that had their roots in Class A and one of the first to successfully make the jump to World Class.

kevingamin Posted August 14, 2010 Share Posted August 14, 2010 And the fun has already started. Guard is wearing orange safety vests as they directed the corps on the field like an airplane. Pit is playing "I'm Leaving on a Jet Plane" (one handed, no less). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kevingamin Posted August 14, 2010 Share Posted August 14, 2010 Love the trumpet player running around lost with a map in hand during the opening Magical Mystery Tour fanfare. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
IntheMood Posted August 14, 2010 Author Share Posted August 14, 2010 They are a small Corps this year, their show is fun they have a smok'en drum line a very fan friendly show Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kevingamin Posted August 14, 2010 Share Posted August 14, 2010 We're in the Carribean now. Guard carrying platters with drinks. Trumpet soloist keeps macking on the mello soloist, getting in front of her and keeping her from playing. Drum line is super good. Tubas are really letting me hear them. Love that kind of energy from the bottom. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
