Or you have an album that has a corps being introduced that way (pointing finger at myself on that one)....... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

One of my fovourite memories(while I still have one...)was a recording that I heard,when I was "just a Rookie"... It was "Tony Schlechta" (SP?) anouncing ..."From Chicaga Illinoise...Da Royalairse"...(Old Tony used to do ALL the "Big Shows"in those days:I think the recording was from a '60's VFW Nationals...

chefdan Posted March 17, 2005 Share Posted March 17, 2005 I remember when "The Cadets",were "THE GARFIELD CADETS"!(an ignigma of the EASTERN Drum Corps Powerhouse of that day...) If anyone can help my memory,(after the Strokes....)I remember a Man from Garfield, that I met in '71`-'72 I think that his name was "Dave Shaw" (Maybe he was in charge of the old "Garfield Invitaional" (SP?) .He was a "GREAT " idealist,to show what DRUM CORPS should be....NOT just ALL of us "OLDE PHARTS" searching for ways to bring back some of the "OLD- SCHOOL" DAZE...(As much as I would hate to admit it,some things have been improved over the years...) OK,I'll stop my "babble" for now...but,as "The Gropenfuerur"would say..."I'll be BAAAACK" Your Brother, DANIEL B) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kind of an odd duck; rather ascerbic. I got along with him OK. He lived in Don Angelica's huge old victorian-style house up in Bergen County, along with (at least) Don and Bobby Hoffman. Not sure if Pete Emmons lived there with them, or Fred Sanford either (Fred was hired by Don to be Bergenfield's band director in the 71-72 school year, as well as our percussion person...Don was Bergenfield's personnel manager for the entire district). I know Ray Capecelli, our marching 'tech' in today's terms, did not live with the rest of them. BTW, in 71 we were billed as "The Cadets of Garfield", not the "Garfield Cadets". Why? I have no idea. :P Mike Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ContraBuddy Posted July 1, 2005 Share Posted July 1, 2005 (edited) You know your an Old Phart if: Your sister who marched in St. Nick's Cadets marries a bari player from Bracken who she met at a 'contest' in Philly. Your brother-in-law tells you, "You don't need no damed rotor." You actually expect to see an American flag & Honor Guard on the field. You think of powder blue & white uniforms anytime you drive thru Audubon. You stand up at a parade and salute every American flag that goes by. That polished, well-lubed bugle sitting in the corner of your living room is twice as old as the kids marching today.

Walter Posted July 1, 2005 Share Posted July 1, 2005 Funny you should mention Baby Elephant Walk - was just listening to it the other day!
