BDFan Posted September 21, 2003 Share Posted September 21, 2003 I'm not sure where to find just a clip, but I believe the '74, '75, and '78 shows have the Bottle Dance. Also, they did it in '82 and '92 as you mentioned. 1982 is interesting because you can hear the hornline is off-time, apparently the echo in Montreal was pretty bad and they brought it back just for finals. You might check the SCV website for videos or DVDs as well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

melloageout07 Posted September 21, 2003 Share Posted September 21, 2003 They also did it in 73 when they won their very first championship. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DonPRBari Posted September 21, 2003 Share Posted September 21, 2003 Also, they did it in '82 and '92 as you mentioned. 1982 is interesting because you can hear the hornline is off-time, apparently the echo in Montreal was pretty bad and they brought it back just for finals. I was in the stands in 1982, and the problem wasn't the echo...the problem was that the crowd response was so INCREDIBLY LOUD that I'm sure the hornline could not hear itself or the drum line for that matter. That, in combination with it being their first performance of The Bottle Dance in competition that year, resulted in the timing error, I belive. But, for those of us in the stands - we couldn't have cared less! b**bs It was the kind of moment fans live for (think PR's closer at Finals this year). Thank you SCV for this and hundreds of other wonderful memories! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Quadzkid Posted September 21, 2003 Share Posted September 21, 2003 I believe they did it in 2001 too....unless of course I am misinformed about what the bottle dance looked like. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MsBusDriver Posted September 21, 2003 Share Posted September 21, 2003 They also did it in 73 when they won their very first championship. First "DCI" Championship that is. Our Actual "First" Championship was American Legion '70 then VFW '71. So I guess you could say '73 was our third. '73 was my most favorite year though. 2001 a Guard member "started" to do the bottle dance (kneeling down and throwing out a leg) but didn't actually do it. Pretty cool still.

Jeffsjetta Posted September 21, 2003 Share Posted September 21, 2003 79 they threw it in for finals...thats my fave to date. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
l2elic Posted September 21, 2003 Share Posted September 21, 2003 (edited) I believe they did it in 2001 too....unless of course I am misinformed about what the bottle dance looked like. the color guard only did one little "slide step" (or whatever you wanna call it) of it and the very end of their New Era chant. You can hear the crowd give a little cheer from those that picked up on the little throwback. they dont play the bottle dance music though :P Edited September 21, 2003 by l2elic Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BCC99Man Posted September 21, 2003 Share Posted September 21, 2003 man, i wonder if they'd ever whip out the bottle dance anytime soon..... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
