(Nor trombones, nor women, nor flat snares but who's keeping track?) You're saying iPads are not innovative?? /s But did they have E flat coronets? To my ear, that’s the thing that makes that band’s sound unique. I don’t know if any other bands march them. If so probably not many.

This is part of the band comprised of their most experienced members, most of whom are current OC/WC performers. Quick question for Greg-OC....nice avatar! I marched with some KM alumni at OHS back in the late 70’s just after OHS won MBA with screamer trumpet J.Hester who went on to BD. Did you happen to march with KAC 2005-2007 Pasadena? The avatar is just a picture of a button I have. We had several people from Orange High School (loved their uniforms!), especially in our color guard, but J. Hester doesn't ring a bell. He might have been after my time. And, yes, I was in the Alumni Corps. It was a wonderful-surreal experience and one of my life highlights.

I was in KAC as well in the lead baritone section from 2005-2007 plus that last gig we did at Disneyland; I was also one of the visual guys. My then 6-year old came to our rehearsals a lot and his mom was in the French Horn section; she stood next to Bob Powers most of the time. I agree the experience was something to behold and frankly it was much more memorable to me than my age out year at SCV.
