LOL At roughly the eight-minute mark of their eleven-minute show, most of the brass players form a diamond-shaped block down front on the left side of the field for a big chord that closes one of the songs. At the last moment, one member runs to the forward point of the diamond, right on the sideline, and holds up his hands in the air. The rest of the brass thrusts their arms forward, "pushing' him over the sideline, and he tumbles to the ground. (Then two of them run out to pick him up and bring him back onto the field.)

He is in the classic Cabs uniform. I can’t remember if he was there for Prelims. He was. In both Prelims and Finals he stood behind the screen for the first nine or ten minutes of the show, then he came out and stood in front of it briefly, and then he slowly made his way to the location where he'll be met by the young corps member at the end of the performance. I wasn't quite sure what was going on when I first saw him walking slowly onto the field in the afternoon; I thought of the "Mr. Moto" character from SCV's 2006 show.

Lou Storck, a legend and great guy. He was the oldest member on the field, met and hugged by the youngest member on the field. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

When I saw the word "infamous"... I had a feeling it had something to do with that situation.

I missed that moment Saturday at Prelims, but I laughed out loud when I saw it at Finals a few hours later. (I also chortled aloud Friday night when Freelancers played "The Lick" in their performance of Florida Suite.) 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
