Brooklyn's Carter Cadets and WYNN CENTER P.A.L. 

Definitely. Two terrific city corps. 

And the Riversiders from NYC. My older brothers got started in drum corps in 1967 with a NJ Garden State Circuit group. I'd go to shows with my folks, and the Riversiders were the first corps to really get my attention. They were great that year... dominated the circuit.

I went in 2011 and it was decidedly not a full house.  

Saw a video recently of the 1998 Grand Prix in Clifton and the NY Skyliners Alumni corps' exhibition at the start of the evening. The concert side was filled, and it's a good-sized stadium. And this before the DCA corps even took the field that night.

Sorry if this sounds like a "get off my lawn/back in MY day" post... but times indeed have changed.

Riversiders were great then. The Wynn Center Toppers were good too. There was a corps from Newark in the GSC, St Martin's Troubadors. Their unis and my corps (Livingston Imperial Guardsmen) unis were almost identical. We were pretty close competitively in 68 and 69, around the middle of the circuit.
