damjiboo Posted June 7, 2010 Share Posted June 7, 2010 Most of these I've only seen on DVD...but:76 BD...I mean come on....the first win....what's not to love? And the chart selections are CLASSIC. 76 Bridgemen...just to be part of the first year of the bannanas! 80 Spirit...to be on the receiving end of all the emotion for Jim Ott during "Let it be Me" 82 BD/SCV...the highest score under the tick and the surprise "Bottle Dance," ensemble tear and all 83 Garfield...to see the beginning of the continual excellence 83 Suncoast Sound...WHAT A HORNLINE!!!! 84 Garfield....so I could finally see it from the audience and in uniform 84 BD...$1 to Jeff Ream in the DCA version of this thread....to see it from my drill spot again. 84 SCV...for the push from "Tenderland" -- lush lush LUSH chords! 84 Madison...the Cats selection...parted my hair at Whitewater prelims (well...the three or four I had) HM 84....Garfield at Whitewater finals....just so I could SEE the Wipeout! 85 Suncoast..."Midnight in Miami" 85 Star of Indiana...I knew they'd make finals when I saw them earlier in the season. 85 Velvet Knights....OH NO!!! 86 BD....need one say more? 86 Spirit...my fave Spirit show 87 SCV...see BD 86 comment 88 Madison (duh) 88 SCV...should've won 88 Garfield..a VERY underrated show 88 VK...everything INCLUDING the kitchen sink! 88 Suncoast...SO far ahead of it's time...a show I think that would hold up fairly well today. 88 Sky Ryders..."Sound of Music" gets no better (although I'd miss the vid of Tim Kviz #### near head-actioning his shako off at the end! 89 Regiment (see 88 SCV) 89 Bluecoats...my fave 'Coats show of the 20th Century 90 Star....my God....what a show! Fave Star program ever. 90 BD...awesome awesome awesome 91 Star...just so I could see Zingali's Magnum Opus of a closer drill live and scream my lungs out. 92 Cadets....hey, I'm an Air Force vet. 93 BD...how did they every MARCH to Ellis??? 94 Magic....great hornline and show. 95 Madison...see 86 BD 95 Crown...my fave Crown show until 07 96 Magic...a great rendition of "12 Seconds to the Moon" HM 96 Nightfire, just to see my guys on the field again. 97 Madison...see 95 Madison! 99 SCV...they were on fire. HM 99 BD at the Concord "Lights out" show...finally saw the video and have NO &^#%& IDEA how they continued to march and the play the show with no stadium lights...especially considering that they learned the closer drill THAT DAY! 00 BAC...good old, solid drum corps. 01 SCV...New Era! NEW...NEW...NEW ERA! 01 Regiment....one of the most spectacular endings ever...made me forget 85 SCV for a moment. 02 Cascades...like 01 Regiment, they made me forget the various times Cadets did those charts. HM 02 SoCal Dream....hey, we did DCI shows! 03 Regiment...GREAT program....almost cried when they first played "Sanctus" on the west coast (since my wife came down the aisle to "Canon in D" which Sanctus sounds like. 04 Cavies...I'll tell you later. 04 SCV...always thoughts Regiment would do "Scheherazade," but Vanguard nailed it. 06 Regiment...great 50th program 06 BD...I'm Sicilian, duh! 07 BD...FYWW!! 07 Regiment...spectacular 07 Crown...my fave of the year...fabulous! 07 Bluecoats....best use of narration ever. HM BD/SCV alum corps....over way way WAAAYY too fast(and would've liked to have had BD's drum line at Stanford....thanks guys ) 08 Regiment...a show so spectacular I didn't even mind them beating my guys! Perfect storytelling in every respect. 08 BD....So close....sooooooooooooooo close!! 08 Bluecoats....for the brass shout in "The Boxer." We had a collective corpsgasm in the THEATER for quarters...finals must've been off the charts! 08 Madison....now THAT'S the old Madison we all know, love, and yearn for! 88 Sky Ryders..."Sound of Music" gets no better (although I'd miss the vid of Tim Kviz #### near head-actioning his shako off at the end! That was Mickey Hartzog! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
84BDsop Posted June 7, 2010 Share Posted June 7, 2010 88 Sky Ryders..."Sound of Music" gets no better (although I'd miss the vid of Tim Kviz #### near head-actioning his shako off at the end!That was Mickey Hartzog! I'm talking about the end of the show...closeup shot of the mellos. IIRC, Hartzog was the black guy in the snare line...HIS head bobbing at the end of the opener needed no closeup camera shot...Helen Keller could've seen it!
