Jim, he certainly wasn’t there long as Director. Maybe 2004 and 2005 but I know definitely 2005. Here’s some more of his bio:
Larry began his instructional career as a Crossmen Alumnus in 1991 where he served as Brass Instructor in 1991 & '92 and then to the Cadets of Bergen County in 1993 & '94. In 1995 he became Brass Caption Head for the Cadets, where he served through the 1997 season. In 1998 took the position as Brass Caption Head with the Glassmen in 1998 through 2000 and then Carolina Crown in 2001 & '02. During this time he also served as Consultant to the Syracuse
Brigadiers in 1998, Brig's Staff Coordinator/Music Director in 1999 through 2001, Brass Consultant for the Bushwackers in 2002 and Program Coordinator for the Crossmen in 2003. Keeping active in both circuits, he is currently the Director of the Crossmen. In addition to the wealth of senior (DCA) and junior (DCI) corps experience, Larry has served as Brass Instructor/Caption Head for the Royal Kilties, "Pride of Soka" from Tokyo, Japan (1994 - 1997), and as a clinician at the
Pontins Music Festival (Band and Drum & Bugle Corps) in England (1996 -2001). He has been an adjudicator for USSBA, the NY State Field Band
Association, and the Greater St. Louis Marching Band Championships, as well as other festivals and competitions in South Carolina, Florida, Virginia and
Maryland. Larry holds a B.A. in Music Education/Performance from Trenton State College, and has studied with Don Butterfield (Euphonium) and Dave Uber (Trombone). He is currently Band Director at Bridgewater Raritan High School in Bridgewater, NJ. Additionally, he instructs and is part of the design team at North Penn High School in Lansdale, PA, and as stated above, is the Director of the Crossmen Drum & Bugle Corps.
This was from an older bio. He was brass caption head for the Glassmen in a couple of the Gold Years and worked closely with Hop at the Cadets too. During his tenure at BR, he was known to have a short temper and be extremely verbally and mentally abusive to students but nothing on this level. To point out, he also won numerous state championships as band director at BR. A number of students had been fearful to report his ugly behavior until somebody did come forward and that led to his dismissal in 2013. I’m personally glad that these brave victims came forward in Kansas.
