LegalEagle50 Posted August 8, 2009 Share Posted August 8, 2009 Having worn very similar satin tops in college, NO Cabs wouldn't be my second favorite uniform even if they are in a tie for my favorite corps. I like Brigs uni very much. It's just looks very classy out on the field. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ajlisko Posted August 9, 2009 Share Posted August 9, 2009 Skyliners.........great uni. Thanks Robbie ... since Sky's is/was my uni of choice, my second choice would be the Ballentine Brewers ... did you know they were part of the first ever DCA sanctioned show in 1964?

Lisko I seem to recall hearing that somewhere, Andy. Ballantine had those odd shaped shakos too. I believe their uni design was similar to one that Archer Epler had before the maternity blouses. Too bad Ballantine didn't last longer. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Archie bought Ballentine's unis in 66 and wore them in the winter and beginning of the season ... then their faithful revolted and the went back to the red blouses ... :-) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bushdm86 Posted August 9, 2009 Share Posted August 9, 2009 I was always partial to the Bushwackers uniforms from 1984. Black pants, magenta and blue alternate sleves with the piano keyboard sarape acrosss the chest, with the white fordora. This was very possibly the first Greg Cesario type uniform in drum corps that included the high ski bib type pants that almost every corps wears now. I believe our uniform came out before the Cavaliers did. I also liked the cadet style uniforms, with shakos of course, from corps like the 1960's Sunrisers, Skyliners and Yankee Rebels.

Antifreke Posted August 10, 2009 Share Posted August 10, 2009 I love the Cabs uniforms. I would have no problem never wearing my Towson University uniform ever again after doing a season there. Bush has a really nice uniform, and I love their Hat / Shakko / Cover Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
