kevingamin Posted September 4, 2011 Author Share Posted September 4, 2011 I think the tan tops look better with black pants than with white as when Phantom wore them a decade ago. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kevingamin Posted September 4, 2011 Author Share Posted September 4, 2011 Horns start playing backfield with a trumpet soloist. Drums move across the center of the field with a guard member holding a large white sail flag. Horns now turn front for the first hit of the show. They've got a squealer in the pit.

kevingamin Posted September 4, 2011 Author Share Posted September 4, 2011 Drums come across the field with another quick break. Horns, who were behind the drums, move around and in front until they're all in the center of the field for the finish to the selection.
