dc oldtimer Posted January 12, 2009 Share Posted January 12, 2009 Mitch, do you remember when you guys stayed with us (BD) at the school in Stillwater? I can't remember whether it was 1976 or 1977. We couldn't walk to the bathroom without being "rated" by a large group of Cavies boys. 76. I don't think we went to Stillwater in 77. and yea, that sounds like us. I was a little, skinny, shy 15 year old kid back then but there were plenty of guys who had a "way with the ladies". LOL! We were happy when you and SCV were around. We got tired of looking at all the Phantom and Guardsmen girls!! LOL! Plus, they knew us too well "Is it soup yet?" "No, it's still water" Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

byline Posted January 12, 2009 Share Posted January 12, 2009 I'm pretty sure this is 1978 I think you're right, as this looks similar in background and appearance to a group of Oakland photos you posted, also from 1978. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mingusmonk Posted January 12, 2009 Share Posted January 12, 2009 (edited) Last one! Star of Indiana victory concert, 1991 DCI finals: (photo by Bonnie Harmon) heh! Frank looks about exactly the same now as he did 17 years ago. Can't say the same about all of the folks there though. I kept hoping for more horn arch section photos from around. She must have known one of the sopranos.? Edited January 12, 2009 by mingusmonk Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm pretty sure Bonnie had at least one student who marched Star that year, so I'm guessing that she was focusing on those students in these photos.

tommytimp Posted January 12, 2009 Share Posted January 12, 2009 Doesn't cleaning the drill imply cleaning the marching? If you march dirtier than a porn convention, your drill will be just as bad.I don't know if you ever marched tymps or were in the pit the whole time....but try to do a BIG company front rotation like 82 27th...simple in concept...a royal bear to march cleanly....we did one on a smaller scale in 87 Empire...it was one of the most difficult moves I've ever done because there was not a lot of margin for error, especially if you were real close to the pivot pointg and were setting the angle. I actually didn't march in corps, but for a few months I was in band and I ZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZ ZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZ ZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Did/does she teach in Indiana? Maybe Salem right now? I think I've heard of her. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
