This is my first post...probably because this is the first time I've been here. I got sucked in when I did a Google search on Empire State Express. I marched with Mark Twain Cadets in 1975 (Mellophone) and Empire State Express in 1978 (Drum Major). Personally, I think the reason the corps fell apart wasn't due to a lack of talent...there was tons of talent in the area, Express came from two struggling corps into one with a bright future, but there wasn't enough organization to take over and run with it. As with any corps that disolves, it was a shame to watch it fall apart....but it sure was a great summer in 1978! It was nice to read your comments....Hey Shimes...we must have known each other 30 years ago!!! janep
