I guess knowing the 5 Star team all our lives paid off! I still remember in 92, Hannum asking if he could sit in our empty to watch Star...well hell yeah! Then Xmen came on, and i asked if he wanted to stay to watch and he said sure...and he laughed at the drum solo, praising his former student's book...some guy named Thurston 90 Star at Hershey is one of my favorite live performances EVER - I remember it like it was yesterday. Wish that show was still a thing. Of course, I also wish Star was still a thing. That brass line, OMG 3 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Star was a near religious experience for me that night. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's my alma mater and also the first Texas school to introduce corps style marching. 😎 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

(Frank Troyka was our tour manager.) Regiment also housed there and held a clinic in 92. It also just dawned on me that I took several biology classes at UNT back in 2004-2006ish with someone who must’ve been one of your section mates at SCV back in the day.

Did you practice in the Wildcat Stadium? Or across the street in the park there? Just trying to imagine where y'all woulda been. That's so flippin' cool. Thanks for filling in my HS's legacy in the activity. Means a lot to me! 4 hours ago, year1buick said: It also just dawned on me that I took several biology classes at UNT back in 2004-2006ish with someone who must’ve been one of your section mates at SCV back in the day. (Drum corps is a small world...) Noice! Wonder who! I was the only one from Texas in the guard for most of the time I marched. Or my memory's failing me which is certainly possible. My memory can be testy from those times, which I why I've worked to corroborate what I can recall with others. Also went to TWU so you're reminding me of lots of wonderful memories in Denton too. 🙂 36 minutes ago, IllianaLancerContra said: That is part of the problem... This guy gets it. 😉 That problem is tough to resolve from the outside. In this particular case, I'm grateful for the small drum corps world. @year1buick is always a delight. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Feels like a lifetime ago… I actually had two rounds there- once as an R/TV/F major and later for pre-dental. But never for music! (I was one of the few non music major Buicks when I marched. Heck, I wasn’t even in the marching band.) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sky Ryders were an awesome organization and Regiment is a better organization because of your contribution.
