MikeD Posted August 21, 2003 Share Posted August 21, 2003 1971 27th Lancers-Chicago Medley "Does Anybody Really Know What Time It Is" and "Only the Beginning While I'm not a big fan of concert numbers, THAT one is an exception. My favorite, for sure. Mike Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MikeD Posted August 21, 2003 Share Posted August 21, 2003 ITA on Legend. Two more things about it:1. It was also a great concert in '74. 2. It was better as a concert than as an exit ('78). Which was the first corps to go without a concert? I think I know the answer (not 100% sure). Any guesses? Well, we (Cadets) didn't have one in 72. The closest thing to a concert in that show was our "Amazing Grace" chart, but we moved to a new form in that tune as well, so it's not really a concert in the classic sense.

dc oldtimer Posted August 21, 2003 Share Posted August 21, 2003 Hands down - MacArthur Park 75 Madison. Second... what was the name of Bridgemens concert in '77? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paul Milano Posted August 21, 2003 Share Posted August 21, 2003 I'll go with 27th Lancer's concert in 1972 (the Chicago medley), same one they apparently played in 1971. It was so good that I move to Revere for a few months after that season to march in 27's snare line. Ultimatelyollowed my heart back to Cavies, however, and stayed with my "boys." But, when a concert number makes you run away from home, temporarily abandon your corps, leave your girlfriend, and quit school . . . Well, THAT'S a legendary concert!!!

srose Posted August 21, 2003 Share Posted August 21, 2003 I would almost vote for "Legend" since that was one of the first drum corps recordings I ever heard - however I've got to proclaim BD's "One More Time, Chuck Corea" (82 version) as the the mostest awesomest concert I've ever heard.

What about 81 and 83? A cool tune in any year no doubt, but the up-tempo re-entry statement near the end in 82 just kicks total...uh...posterior!
