And Michael Turner comes home to Madison! http://www.madisonscouts.org/2018/09/madison-scouts-welcome-back-michael-turner/

Spotted Cow is the best! Can't get it out here in Colorado......unless some kind soul from Wisconsin could bring me some! ;)

Wow! Big news out of Madison! http://www.madisonscouts.org/2018/09/madison-scouts-welcome-james-elvord-artistic-director/

Only problem with that is they have I'm guessing entirely new members that didn't march back then. There would be a lot of alterations and refitting. Better to buy entirely new ones. I'd still be in favor of that exact look though.....we'll, maybe the jacket could have about 2 shades darker of the green to make it that classic forest green!

Not to get too technical, but in 88 there were only two nights, semis and finals.....but you're right, they won both.

I agree with a lot of what you're saying, but......not even close to challenging for a world title in the 70s and 80s? Did I read that correctly?

Something aint working and i feel like a house cleaning is in order

Thanks, glad you like my art!!

I think they will be solid this year. The source music is fun and packs a punch. But yeah, I'd like to see the costumes too!

Any word or hints about what the Scouts will be performing in 2018?

I'm much more interested in what kind of show Madison will come out with for 2018 and what type of costuming will go with that program!! I'd still like to see them do a "Men of Steel" show.

Is KC Michael out as Program Coordinator? If so, I'm interested to see who they get to replace him. I thought he did an amazing job in that position!

Wow, I didn't notice the sword. Need to watch it again! So many great little subliminal messages, and hidden details even on the Corps uniform. Like citation chords, sashes, belts, yes even spats (even though they're brown/gray), gauntlets. Also, the head pieces have stylized Fluer-De-Lis on them. Now I wonder what the Men of Madison have in store for 2018. I'm super excited to find out. But I'll have to be patient, since they'll probably keep it a secret like they did this past season. (Unless some well connected brother wants to PM me if he knows something. ;) )

Don't forget the Audobon Bon-Bons (not sure where they were from).....and the Capitol Aires from Madison WI.
