TennTux Posted January 31, 2008 Share Posted January 31, 2008 "The Sunrisers, August 10, 1969Cliff Diable ; "1st use of mallets in DCA history" "At The Dream" Jersey City, New Jersey" Just to clarify a point here: This caption would lead you to believe that it was AT the Dream Contest in 1969 that the Sunrisers first used the marching bells. More accurately, they were used the entire 1969 season. That picture just happens to be from the '69 Dream. Great picture! If you want to verify this, just listen to Fleetwood's recording of the 1969 "Fresh Air Fanfare." The bells can be heard on that recording, featured very prominently. That night Sky won the contest, Sun debuted their mallets, the Rebels debuted their "Requiem For an Era" as we (Hawthorne) stood on the starting line, watching. We took high drums, but finished last in the show. Quite a memorable night, I'd say. Sorry to have gotten a little off topic. John, In 1969 I was marching in another Corps that was "breaking new ground" because of the same Percussion Arranger/Instructor.
