84BDsop Posted August 26, 2009 Share Posted August 26, 2009 Legendary?Hell, everyone knows you were personally responsible for bringing about an end to the tick system, Sam... something about saving forests of pulp. Pesceone must've seen me march in college, then! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KingsmenSnare76 Posted August 26, 2009 Share Posted August 26, 2009 That's right Dave, I don't ever remember seeing a column on the sheets for stick angles...LOL. And you're right it's almost impossible to photograph a snare line that has perfect stick angles when frozen in time. Luckily our human brains tend to average out the details so when things are moving they appear "perfect". I agree 100% on this one. There are two slightly different stick angles, five high and three low. The problem is that there are three drummers cut off in this picture. We would need to see their angles in order to determine who was ticking. Personally, I think snares 1,5 & 6 are correct though . If only snare lines could match these angles. That would be cool. 74 Anaheim Kingsmen Winter Guard. Thats the Kingsmen rifle line...nearly perfect everytime! :) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It is interesting to consider that this is obviously the winter guard so they were that clean even in the winter. I like the mouths agape in concentration.

The only thing that's slightly off, and it's unusual for this guard, are the arm angles. Now, before anyone gets on my case for being too ticky-tacky, I'm pretty sure we've discussed this photo before, and someone pointed out that the two who are out of position were actually new to the guard. But yes, those rifle angles . . . awesome! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Legolaus Posted August 27, 2009 Share Posted August 27, 2009 Here are a few shots (1982) of a corps whose official name was The Memphis Blues Brass Band* (A Drum & Bugle Corps). Some great members came out of this corps and went on to Garfield, 2-7, Madison etc. (Sorry theses are not great shots) Hey Tom, talk about dirty feet, take a look at the center snare's feet.
