sweet cheeeeezus......the abuse I get......gonna report you all to the SFVC.....Society For the Vertically Challenged......but you all must agree that I play TALL....... Guido, who has a seat in front of Jeff with Fran on his lap and Tom waving from the field

Jeff can take me to dinner AND sit behind me, but only if he brings his precious baby girl wif himself....... Guido

could this also signify the return of the Pootsmen??????.....when and where can we audition?????

so, it's really Joan of Arc??????

I shall attend my Princess.....my cheque and seating desire will be mailed this day...are there to be booster seats available????? will kids' meals' be available????? Sir Guido the Challenged

anyone who was there will remember.....really happy that my tirade toward the judges from the endzone never was filmed....thanks for saving me Rockynockers........

sad that all we have are those wonderful memories........and that todays corps will never have that feeling of passing the clock when entering thru the laft field-center gate Guido

and they had a junior corps named The Joeys....whose logo was a kangaroo....no lie Fran

oh my......our Don had to go there.......does he driva a conclave???? will he be an ecumenimum wage Papa???? madonna, he looks eastern european........ Guido

here's a taps for you my friend......always on my mind Jim

I think Ken is correct....it was either '64 or '65 (that was the year we got the kids from Vasella)......if you look at the pic of Barnum....and you look to the left and behin the bass drum, you may see the top of me hat 'cause I was still short then and as you look at the uni, it was a full draped blouse zipered at the neck, with black epaulettes and black mandarin collar....the red, green and black vertical stripes were on the right side.....it looked like the Sons of Italy, but what a bunch of good men......proud to have been there Guido

I still have some photos of that '63 show.......what a pleasure to participate and entertain the crowd......always appreciative ....then when I was staff with BR just watching the corps on the field from a high vantage......and in '78 putting on the 'Nostalgia' show with Archie's alumni signalling another innovation....still get choked up listening to a sideline tape with many of our former competitors making comment on the homage being paid to those great corps...one of my fondest memories Guido

you are correct my paradiddled friend...we did march next to each other in '63, with Carmen Cirlincione between us and we were the last 3 man squad off the field at the exit Guido OFO/OFA

Ken, remember that the OTL was 'By Love Possessed" and in 'Band of America' the entire sop line triple tongued the obligato......oh and the out of concert was 'More and More Amore', popularized by that trumpet player Al Alberts.....or sumptin' Guido

glad to read this guys.....a great double bill....best wishes for continued success Guido

our deepest sympathy Andy.....prayers and thoughts are with her and your whole family Guido

ditto my friend

Thanks for remembering 2B.......see that you're a re-enactor, but I don't remember you from the original Civil War......remember we put it all together in 1975 for the parade in '76 and it kept going......dream in '78 was one of the greatest moments history (IMHO, then came the 3 year resurrection, after which another phoenix....what great stage shows from '88 thru '95 and continuing today........ Guido AFO/OFA

Amen, brother Ray........positive thoughts and prayers going out to the entire family

what Ray ommitted was that you can bring anyone to this show......especially old guys with gray hair who look like Bucky and invite them all to the Buy Bucky a Beer booth..well some body needed to say it and inasmuch I am unable to attend or partake it's gonna be up the the drum corps community to be there..............

thank the Lord that we get a new question/photo to ponder........it took a long time for that one.......OK my Queen.......bring it on

you're all getting warmer.......and it IS the beer to have, when your having more than one, connect the dots with Andy's and you all should have it........and you'll all get get a big salort

I bet you say that to all short old men............hey, anyone figure out the girl???? If nobody gonna say it, I will and let the chips or Belles fall where they may.........CAS

hey Tom, ain't that a french cheese?????? Guido
