Bengal Guards Drum and Bugle Corps, Orange, TX

Edit: Interestingly, it appears that in the earliest days of the group, woodwinds were employed as well (GASP!!!)

I've always thought that it would be very cool if a show started out in period uniforms with a small number of a corps MM's (like the video presented in the first post) then......somehow merged and melded into a very modern production by the rest of corps, like taking the worm hole to a more practical use. A bit like BD 2010, emphasizing old drill moves vs the newer body movement and scatter drill.....not to mention the contrast of music and productions. Unmic'd, non-electric juxtaposed by the most severe and gooey example of the other....Starting with period and ending with period.
