Maybe they'll do the music of Harry Nilsson next? This must include "You're Breaking my Heart" 🤣 Let the audience sing that one like they did with "Hey Jude". 😇 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You left your shoes out on the field, went back to the school and turned in your equipment and they gave you your medal and patch. If you didn’t turn in your uni and all of your equipment, no medal or patch. Then, usually in November, there was an awards banquet.

Oh no … so THATS why I am still waiting on my medals and patch after all these years . Knowing this now , in retrospect I should never have left my shoes behind . The soles of those were still durable and useable .Darn it . 😃 Edited August 14, 2021 by Boss Anova 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DrumManTx Posted August 14, 2021 Share Posted August 14, 2021 Being back in LOS last night was pretty special. Needed that kind of excitement and happiness in my life again. 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bk performers exiting the stadium tunnel after their performance saw the BAC ageouts gathered in the stands right above them cheering for them , then the BK marchers waved back to the BAC ‘ers up in the stands .

I was never in a DCI finals, but the shoes got left on the field after retreat at last performance. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I can remember when Jeff was just another kid under the mentorship of Marty along with some other really good percussionist. It is inspiring and great to see the Marty H. tree alive and well. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
