Bucbari Posted December 22, 2017 Share Posted December 22, 2017 I've never understood why 98 gets so little respect. The corps won of course...there have been a few honorable mentions....and that's about it. I would describe 98 as restrained elegance. It is one of my all time favorites. with 1985 there's a bit a back story that most people aren't even aware of. The original horn arranger kind of .....bailed on them? The fact that the corps was able to put together such a legendary show is nothing short of amazing. Just as an aside he bailed on us also. 4 weeks before our 1st show we still didn't have a production number or a closer.. We came in 2nd that year and took high horns in spite of him. To complete the ops request. 1984 Legendary.....doesn't need an explantion 2011 One of the greatest ever and finally I'll say just 2 words White Rabbit 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

elphaba01 Posted December 22, 2017 Share Posted December 22, 2017 (edited) "Garfield Cadets Faves": 1962: King of Kings S/L fanfare, French National March OTL, Besame Mucho (Which was well on 'it's way to becomming a Garfield "Standard") West Side Story medley "Concert", March of the Olympians out of concert, Sound of Music medley for "Exit" Don Angelica was their writer/instrctor, I belive Les Parks taught the drum line and Hawthorne's Jim Costello wrote and taught the drill. 1963 was almost a copy of 1962, with the additions of American Salute at CP , Fire Dance at concert and I Have Dreamed as "Exit". It was easily their most dificult program of the early 1960's. Elphaba Edited December 26, 2017 by elphaba01 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
