Blackstar Posted November 24, 2009 Share Posted November 24, 2009 I'm wondering if the Sex Cymbals were precussionist or just the best looking girls that could play cymbals (Yes I know that can be answered by a simple yes to both) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tommytimp Posted November 24, 2009 Share Posted November 24, 2009 They did play some stuff in the pit during the drum solo both years. It'd be interesting to know from someone who was there whether Matt Savage or Eddie Drayton or whoever came up with the idea first or had a fairly hot all-girl cymbal line THEN hit upon the idea.

crazymello Posted November 25, 2009 Share Posted November 25, 2009 >_> Imagine a panel of adults judging some under 21 girls for a drum corps not based on talent, but based on attractiveness. sounds kinda creepy, doesn't it? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kerickson Posted November 25, 2009 Share Posted November 25, 2009 I know that in '87 or '88 (maybe both years) one of the girls emerged on top bass when they dropped the screen to reveal the monster snare line (complete with hula skirts).

fleabag Posted November 27, 2009 Share Posted November 27, 2009 (edited) Just thought I'd check and see if photos were posted. Check the "some old corps photos" thread. Use the "Search Topic" at bottom left in that thread. Edited November 27, 2009 by fleabag Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Joe Salvatore Posted July 13, 2010 Share Posted July 13, 2010 They did play some stuff in the pit during the drum solo both years.It'd be interesting to know from someone who was there whether Matt Savage or Eddie Drayton or whoever came up with the idea first or had a fairly hot all-girl cymbal line THEN hit upon the idea. Well... long story short. I left VK after 1985 (1 guy down) and some of our closest friends were the Freelancers cymbal line. So 1986 Alex from Freelancers (inactive that year) kinda took my male cymbal spot. A very good friend who was a girl contra player in VK cadets finally made the VK cymbal line in 1986. So 1987 (vets can confirm) - unplanned but Cymbal line all girls during most of the winter and spring camps (Alex went back to a reactivated Freelancers in 1987). Not sure when the uniform was decided. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
