JimF-LowBari Posted April 2, 2010 Author Share Posted April 2, 2010 (edited) Flying Saucer machine gun brake drums Elvis Missed Elvis but saw the rest...... "Flying Saucer That Ate A Drum Corps" Matadors had a guy dressed like.... well a Matador.... complete with cape doing a routine. And from my first year of corps: Polka Dot shorts being shown when a guys pants fall down (Yankee Rebels concert). And the smoke effect done in 74/75 by YR and Westshore in the early 80s. Edit: Saw Andys post above and another memory cell kicked in. One year in the late 70s, Sky had the horns do a drill where groups would cross each other. At the end of the formation the groups were getting closer and closer.... and the next to last group collided... Looked like an "Ah crap" as the music stopped, then you heard "Beep Beep" and the audience realized it had been "Punked". Think on the album you can heard someone laughing about it.
