  1. If anyone still looks at this - I did find some VHS recordings and put up what I had on YT -> https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCQCnXeu_3X-LH_U-jZhlRoQ Also - with the luck of the internet and some forums on Reddit, I got my old valve/rotor horn fixed and playable!
  2. Did you ever have any luck tracking them down? I was in from 1989-1991 and would love one of the baritones - especially my old one if it's still around. I did buy one of the older piston valve/rotary valve ones from years before. Rotary valve plastic broke and every place I take it to cannot fix it.
  3. Man this is an old thread! Was googling something and came across it. Replying just for fun! Lambeau itself won't happen. The field could never withstand that much foot traffic. I had the good fortune to perform on it (Northmen '89-'91) during the annual ShopKo fireworks when they were held at the field. There *have* been DCM and DCI shows in Green Bay in the past. Now ask me where they were? Dang if I remember.. it was a while ago. But we did host it and it was a really great time. Housing is easy in GB, and there are venues where this might work for a smaller show. Most of the smaller regional corps have folded, however, it seems. Blue Star seems to still be rocking it out, so maybe there's still an interest in the south-west of the state. Really was a hard thing to gain interest in for the GB area. As it was, we were Northmen of Green Bay, but GB barely knew we existed, and we based ourselves partly out of an old school, and partly out of Luxemburg-Casco (director at the time was a teacher out there). I brought some info back to my HS and got a lot of blank stares. "you do.. what?" I was able to use my experience to get my high school band to march a little better than cows on a field, and the learning of a TC Baritone had me also learn BC euphonium for concert band. And I had fun freaking out the color guard girls at high school because "boy's don't know how to use a flag" even though I could handle one better than they could!
