Lance Posted May 16, 2011 Share Posted May 16, 2011 1) 150th Pennsylvania Volunteers...they were fine in combat and drilling, but boy could they be annoying during down time, tooting on their horns and banging their drums. 2) New Hampshire 3rd Regiment...one-dimensional 3) 26th North Carolina Regiment...they complained a lot about their duties for some reason. Not cool. 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not cool. Hey, I was at those shows and battles! I do not remember people thinking they were that good back then... in fact, there was hatred towards them. But those 26th NC.... all they did was get in cooky formations and play dissonance! Not even musical! But they were #### clean... ;) 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

chaddyt Posted May 17, 2011 Share Posted May 17, 2011 Can't believe I'm the first person to point this out, but.... INT was definitely the most overrated corps of the 1860s. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not cool. I thought the 1st Phantom Regiment from Illinois in 1860 though was underrated. They played some music from a new and fresh composer from the late 1850's's by the name of Charles Gounod. Gounod's new music of " Faust " from 1859 did not go over well back then however. But Phantom Regiment was apparently ahead of their time. Phantom Regiment brought back " Faust " once again 150 years later and this time it became a hit with Drum Corps fans.
