Timplan Posted December 3, 2017 Author Share Posted December 3, 2017 Yes, Kilties were one of the first corps to take advantage of the 1978 grounding rule, and had some excellent musical/visual staging moments. Optimists had the parachute, and one year, marched a complete line of conga drums instead of tenors. That would get killed today. And Canzona is a great piece of wind band literature, far more melodic in its line and flow that what we hear today. But, at least in that era, I do feel that innovations were more elsewhere in the rankings, especially SCV, 27th, Bayonne, and Madison, as one of the original "power/blow your socks off" corps.
