kiltiesdrumguy Posted October 25, 2003 Share Posted October 25, 2003 Great story BDL. I have said it so many times. The '76 Blue Devils were the best drum corps EVER! I will stand by that statement, that corps changed the way the activity worked forever, and in a good way. That show would still kick ### today. I'm sure your sister was very proud of you, even though she had to feel empty to come so close, the outcome was a forgone conclusion by the time Whitewater happened that year so it probably wasn't a huge surprise but still...

jerzykyd Posted October 29, 2003 Share Posted October 29, 2003 Great story I moved from NJ in 76 to march with Madison and competed against you BD a lot that year. I remember seeing those North drums and they were soo cool looking. The BD's were awesome that year. I had to learn 2 shows that year cause of you guys !!! A good friend of Mine, Patti Ann Rago, also moved from NJ and Marched with SCV in the guard that year. 1976 was a great year in my book.
