pearlsnaredrummer77 Posted November 10, 2008 Author Share Posted November 10, 2008 (edited) So our confirmed list includes: Santa Clara Vanguard Royal Crusaders 27th Lancers General Butler Vagabonds Gaurdsmen Santa Clara Vanguard B corps Argonne Rebels Madison Scouts I also think Crossmen were matched for awhile. It would make sense, since that's Rob Carson's home corps. I remember discussing Santa Clara's change back to traditional grip with their drum staff in the early '80s, and was told that trad grip made sticking issues easier to see in the mirrors, which was a big factor in their decision to change back. We continued to use matched in the SCV "B" Corps until I left after the'86 season. Edited November 11, 2008 by pearlsnaredrummer77 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

drumnman2004 Posted November 11, 2008 Share Posted November 11, 2008 Add Madison to the list, at least in 1984.Weren't Troopers also matched about then? Brian Callahan did Guardsmen (I believe) in 1981, and I know he did Troopers not too long after that ! They most likely played matched grip if he was there at that time.

sday88 Posted November 11, 2008 Share Posted November 11, 2008 Bluecoats were matched in the early '80s up until and including '84. They switched to traditional in '85. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I kind of thought so... I remember us doing a show w/Bluecoats in 84 on Rt. 666 somewhere in the "Alabama" section of Pennsylvania. I loved the nifty thing with taking off the helmets at retreat you guys did.

I think Argonne was the first line to play match in DCI, in the early 70's. Anyone know of a line that played match in the 60's? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think you have your Rob's mixed up. Robbie Roberston was in Crossmen. Regards, John Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rob Carson was always a West Coaster. Robinson played extremely well, and I believe he won a DCI individuals on snare in the early 80's.

Of course I did mean Robbie Robinson. Robbie Robertson is a completely different guy and played with the Frenso Ferns. Without checking the records, because there aren't any, I think he won individuals 2 times. Regards, John Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
