tesmusic Posted June 7, 2015 Share Posted June 7, 2015 OK how about green jackets with red sashes? One can hope right? Hope springs eternal! Oh wait, we're drum corps, not baseball. So you'd like a late 80's-early 2000's look? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I didn't even mind the 2005 uniform. Very classy and it screamed Madison. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
madalumni Posted June 7, 2015 Share Posted June 7, 2015 Personally, I don't know why they ever went away from the 88-02 look. I've always said that the only thing that design needed was a cleaner, more tailored cut to the jackets (previous version looked baggy and was never properly fitted for the members)...and 2 shades darker on the green for better contrast, and solid red for the sash, outlined by a thin white stripe on each side (not sequines or lame' - solid) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HockeyDad Posted June 7, 2015 Share Posted June 7, 2015 They can wear banana colored long jackets and pimp hats for all I care, as long as they play some kick butt melodic music that makes the hair stand up on my arms. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MikeN Posted June 8, 2015 Share Posted June 8, 2015 I would go bananas if they did a modern version of the 88-02 design. That to me is still the "Madison" look. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MJN Posted June 8, 2015 Share Posted June 8, 2015 That they did, the switched to a shallower drum with Mylar heads for that segment. Nice memory. You can see the regular drums backfield in this vid: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_lveHj5Rwdc Now in terms of Madison, see above statements. Probably using them to assist in the cleaning process before switching to Kevlar. I would guess. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
