mister_horse Posted January 12, 2005 Share Posted January 12, 2005 Does anyone know if there is a recording of the first show the Scouts played in 1976? If so can I get a copy. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mrshowfan Posted January 12, 2005 Share Posted January 12, 2005 Hmmm...I havent heard of one. Obviously there are the finals recordings. I'm thinking that would be pretty rare to have a recording of the first show of the season in 76. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
argonaut Posted January 12, 2005 Share Posted January 12, 2005 I’ve always wondered what the first show sounded like before they changed it. If there is a recording of that show, It would be a real treat to hear. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mobrien Posted January 12, 2005 Share Posted January 12, 2005 Ken Kobold had a recording of it that he used to offer for sale (if you asked for it). I'm guessing it would be in the DCI vaults along with all of his other recordings. Maybe they'll issue a "rarities' cd someday. FWIW, I had it at one point (on 8-track - doh!). The Shaft opener was cool, but it was all downhill from there... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Spenser7 Posted January 12, 2005 Share Posted January 12, 2005 I had a cassette recording of it (back when that was legal). That winter my car was broken into and it was stolen. "DUDE - WHAT IS THIS MARCHING BAND CRAP?" I hope they enjoyed it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have that recording (thanks to Dave Scott) It is truly awful!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mrshowfan Posted January 13, 2005 Share Posted January 13, 2005 (edited) Interesting. Now that you bring that up, I do remember contacting someone from the Soundmachine about 4 years ago who got me a cassette tape recording of a show that was held in Flint Michigan in 1974. I got it b/c my dentist never had a recording of him marching a show. (My dentist marched with the Ishpeming Blue Notes in 74) Its too bad you cant record at drum corps shows, I sure would have enjoyed to hear us at different points in the season. I can just see myself getting ushered/kicked out of a show with a minidisk recorder and a stealth microphone hidden on my shirt Come to think of it... I DO have a mono recording of Madison's home show in 98 on one of those small little voice recorder tapes. Dan(s) do you guys think if you had the the final product at the begining of the season, you would have repeated in '76?

uncle z Posted January 13, 2005 Share Posted January 13, 2005 Sly before videos, show tapes were traded like baseball cards. <{POST_SNAPBACK}> And all true drum corps fans brought their Panasonic tape recorder to shows, practices, et cetera!!!!!!! :P I managed to get both '76 Madison and '76 Kilts on tape at the Big "V"!!!!!! OUCH!!! My ears!!!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
