Hey Barry! Who was the red headed soprano player, female in 1976? She hung around with another girl with dark hair.

Off the line, one of our lead soprano players (Not Me) snaps his horn up and his mouthpiece goes flying back. Seeing this, a non-playing 3rd sop quickly takes his out and hands it to him. Same show, about 10 people lose their shoes in the mud. This was all in Kitchener, Ontario

I have a few that I remember... NT Open in North Tonawanda (well this was right down the street from my house) Golden Triangle Invitational (K-W, Ontario) Sheffield, PA (before they used the HS football field, right there on the fair grounds) Marion, OH (US Open) boy, this was the place. remember when you had to cut your concert number for prelims? Butler, PA (A-I Open) I guess going to the pool and seeing all the drum corps babes in bikinis was nice LOL Hammondsport, NY - this is a weird show because it was literally on the banks on Seneca Lake. We started in the back about 10 feet from the water

Good one!!!! Hmmmm let me think....... Carolina Crown as..............27th Lancers and Blue Stars as.........the Blue Stars (sorry....I miss the Top 12 Blue Stars) and add Troopers as the old Troopers

How about 32nd Hussars? I saw them at US Open too. Southern Tier Grenadiers had a nice corps too! "Those Were The Days my friend, we thought they'd never end...."

George Vetter Stadium in North Tonawanda. It is no longer there now and they just closed the middle school there this past June.

Just have a few minutes. I was thinking of all the corps we competed against or saw while I was a young guy way back when Charioteers, Floridians, Gauchos, Greece Cadets, General Butler Vagabonds, Blue Coats, Cambria cadets, Mighty Liberators, Derry Patriots, Sharpsburg Cadets, 84th Bucktail Regiment, Tri-Town Cadets, Greece cadets, Mello-Dears, Black Knights (NY), Syracuse Marauders, Lakeview Shoreliners/Imperial regiment, Ventures, Flying Dutchmen, Krescendos, Monarchs (NJ), Glassmen, Buckeyes, plus many more. Just thought I'd toss out some memories to y'all

Darn!!! I forgot 27th Lancers. I apologize!!!!!!!!

This show would have the following corps 1. Anaheim Kingsmen (1972) 2. SCV (1974) 3. Madison Scouts (1975) 4. Cadets (1983) 5. Star of Indiana (1990) 6. Cavaliers 7. Bridgemen 8. Suncoast Sound 9. Muchachos 10. Purple Lancers 11. Blue Rock 12. Kilties (1975) 13. Argonne Rebels 14. Phantom Regiment 15. Oakland Crusaders 16. Velvet Knights 17. Troopers 18. Bleu Raeders Big show!!!

1974-1977 I remember the 1973 season Phantom Regiment came to our show in North Tonawanda and blew the house down. The next year was the first NT Open and SCV was supposed to be there but pulled out. It was great show with Blue Devils winning! Anyone have scores from any of those shows...Someone has to have them...please!!! There's a beer in it if you have them.

Yes, North Tonawanda, NY

Was just wondering who remembers this show. I remember the following corps participating: Blue Devils, Cavaliers, Regimente Militaire, Squires, Marksmen, Seattle Imperials, Black Watch (WA), Greece Cadets, Floridians, Charioteers, Devil Dogs, Simplex Minutemen, Fire-ettes, Toronto Optimists, Seneca Princemen, Kinsmen Krescendos, San Jose Raiders, Freelancers, and many more. I thought the stadium field was great. Any other memories?

When the Royal Coachmen disbanded in May a couple guys went to march in the drum line. From what I was told it was quite a part corps, but then, what corps wasn't LOL. I was not impressed with the '77 corps as I was the year before. Both Seneca and Oakland began to die at this point and even the addition of North Star didn't help to make drum corps big in Ontario. What happened? Hmmmmm good question. Maybe some former members can help us here

Night Hawks SkyRyders

How about Belvederes Bengal Lancers Fantasia Fantasia III Arbella Valiant Knights Geneseo Knights

I liked Royal Crusaders but wasn't sure they should have been in Top 12. I heard a rumor from a PR guy who had aged out that there was some "back room dealings" with Royal Crusaders that if they had the numbers they would make top 12 in 1975. They did make it but not sure if they should have. Let me see if the Amazing Kreskin Z can recall '75 Kilts repertoire without consulting corpsreps.com-- OTL--The Third Hoorah (Tull before Garfield!!) Concert--Roll Over Beethoven Production--Don't You Worry 'Bout A Thang Drum Solo--That Irish Washerwoman Baby Exit--Auld Lang Syne Someone give me my props, NOW!!!! :D <{POST_SNAPBACK}> You go Z! We need a "high five" emoticon! :P <{POST_SNAPBACK}>

"Even the Knights are better..." remember those days?
