  1. Black Is The Color Of My True Love's Hair--1967 Canadian Commanders
  2. That's current director Adolph DeGrauwe on the far right. To Rita's left is Jim Anderson and the first guy in the second row is John Anderson. Their parents died in a car accident on the way to 1980 DCI in Birmingham.
  3. Wow, my name is Mike and I was in the Cavaliers in 1981 also.
  4. Post-1980 D.C.I.-- Rita Moreno visits with some of her favorite Men in Green following a show in Chicago
  5. I'll go for the obscurities: 75 GBV--"City of Brass" 75 Precisionnaires--"Spain" 76 Kilts--"Linus and Lucy" 78 Garfield--"Pieces of Dreams" 78 SofA--"Higher and Higher" turn up the mixer on the middle voices, though 79 BD--"Chicago III Suite" turn down everything on the mixer but Gary Gilroy on the marimba
  6. Mmmmm......this is the '74 corps. The drummer third from the right is overage. I have no idea what kind of competitive advantage that gave a "C" class corps from Wisconsin in shows against the likes of the Port Washington Windjammers, the West Bend Patriots and the Park Falls Brass Regiment, but it DOES prove that not only the Muchachos and Bridgemen were cheating. :(
  7. I missed that parade. Did Paul J. sport the "Frito Bandito" uni??
  8. Not a problem.....you managed to get all of ME!!!!
  9. Feel free to go to the "site that shall not be named" and enter this into the search bar: Lancraft Old Timers 1963 I think you'll enjoy what you find.
  10. That's Bret Kuhn on the far left. And I do believe that's MY head directly below the "L" in WOOLWORTH'S.
  11. Except this is Janusz Jeske: and the bass drummer in the middle on the left is me.
  12. Rifles R to L: Steve Szydelko, Brian Nash, the next two guys I can't recall, Mark Tatum, John Van Dorpe, Rick "Chachi" Slupinski, Ron Perez, Paul McKeever, and the rest I'm blanking on. I'm gonna stop. 'cuz I don't recognize some guys anymore.
  13. Quints L to R Todd Faughner, for the life of me, I can't remember the name of that red-headed dude, Jim Fowler, Bryan Morhardt, Dale Tyna and Dave Serino.
  14. Snares L to R: Terry DeJong is out of the picture, Bret Kuhn, Mark Metzcus, Tony DiMartino, Matt O'Brien, Mark Baker, Ron Low, Mike Pratt, Kevin Smith (it's his birthday today) and Dr. Marvin Jackson.
  15. He was also the corps director of the Cedarburg Thunderbolts in 1973 when they merged with Roman Blenski's St. Patrick's Imperials, forming The Thing. He was the music director/horn instructor for my first corps in '75. Russ Epps is apparently bartending at George's, so I was invited to Racine to have a drink with Russ, and then call the Funeral Home to get Tommy to come and raise a glass or two with us.
  16. Lemme see...............Joel Magnusson, Wally Schilg, Ed Porcaro, Dino Riccio, George Lindstrom, Bill Schultz, Dave Martinson, Russ Epps, etc.
  17. Back of the bus, Cavaliers '84--Dave Saliga and Beno Morris. Check out t3h Horicon Marsh Days T-shirt.
  18. Yep. I assisted with an autopsy this morning, and the poor guy was going to Maresh-Meredith Funeral Home in Racine. Guess who picked him up? We spent a good 45 minutes talking early-70s Wisconsin drum corps. All within two blocks of Fruth Field, former site for the Night of Splendor. I can throw out some names that were discussed if you're interested, Jim Anello.
  19. That's amazing, seeing as how Jethro Tull died in 1740.....
