2muchcoffeeman Posted August 1, 2013 Author Share Posted August 1, 2013 Would love to be in the stands to see how the crowd handles the gear shift from Surf to Troopers. Variety? You've got it! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HiddenMonster Posted August 1, 2013 Share Posted August 1, 2013 (edited) I always loved this show. Warming up in people's front yards is a lot of fun! Playing for people after the show is fun too!

Northern Thunder Posted August 1, 2013 Share Posted August 1, 2013 And Drums Along The Mohawk was even the topic of one question on "Jeopardy" back in 1998. The category was "When in Rome", or something similar, and the question (or answer) was ........ "An annual drum and bugle corps contest held in Rome, NY is named for this river." (Nobody got it right.) 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

(Nobody got it right.) Talk about an esoteric quesiton. Way to go Jeopardy... for even knowing about it. Seeing pics on facebook of OC's brassline in a front yard is priceless. People on lawn chairs. Busses and trucks taking over a narrow street. Gotta love it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
