Was There.....


Recommended Posts

Hasn't every DCI champion started at the bottom (except for Star)? BD, SVC, Cadets, Cavies, PR, Madison, Kingsmen all started, in the beginning, at the bottom. Just because they did not score last at championships, doesn't mean they were not "at the bottom". In fact, just competing in championships would mean they were probably not "at the bottom". Besides Star, how many corps competed in the championships (DCI, AL or VFW) in their very first year?

27th Lancers 1968

That whole name thing during that period was bizarre. Referring to them then as the "Boston Drum and Bugle Corps."

...ever a corps to come from the basement of drum corps to rise to the top?

I don't mean mergers or Star of Indiana. I mean a corps that was in the basement. I can only think of Bluecoats. Kilties went to the basement in their junior days and never made it back (junior-wise).

Any other corps?

The Cadets - 14th in 1978 in DCI Prelims.  The rest is history.....
