GMichael1230 Posted August 10, 2009 Share Posted August 10, 2009 Waaay back in 1988, for those that dont recal, A certain corps from Concord California opened that seasons production with a sweet little tune called "Happy days are here again" ...the show was unbelievable and went the entire season undefeated.....arguably the controversial championships format may or may not have cost this undefeated powerhouse a title. A third place finish that is admired and often refered to but now, That sweet little tune has its rightfull place in history as part of a repetoire of an undefeated world champion form Concord Ca. The Blue Devils !!!!!!!!! Geoffrey Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

boxingfred Posted August 12, 2009 Share Posted August 12, 2009 Worked for me !G Go back, Watch 1988. Then, watch 2009. I just did. ( or vice verse ) 2009 starts with synthesized keyboard! Lots of props that don't move. And, canned vocals. ( Oh, and lots of sitting) 1988 Starts with marching and music. If that worked for you. OK back to work...

Not sure what you are listening to, but "Happy days are here again" was played pretty much almost exactly the same (of course, in Bb vs. G) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sorry, the 88 horn line played a harder and better book IMHO. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
