MikeD Posted December 21, 2009 Share Posted December 21, 2009 1977 Hava De Grace MD July 4 Parade and Contest, early photos of the two month old merger of the Pa Belvederes-Highlanders=Black Diamond Regiment That was the show held on the pier1 I've told a couple of stories before about that show. A GSC corps I taught, the King's Regiment (merger of the Wayne NJ Monarchs and Greemwood Lake Lakers) used to do the parade and show...I think we were there in 77.

lindap Posted December 21, 2009 Share Posted December 21, 2009 From September to April, our colour guard spent a lot of time together rehearsing for winter guard contests. In May we’d start our summer program and it was back to the drum major role for me. We rarely traveled far however I’m truly grateful that Mr. Petschke and the executive decided we go to DCI finals in 1975 as audience members. Thanks for this scan baja. Quick question, where was the 1973 Festival of Brass held? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ajedrummer Posted December 21, 2009 Share Posted December 21, 2009 The Super Sensitive parade drum first appears in the '64 catalog, about a year after the standard SS concert snare was introduced. It's possible that it came out during the 63 season, though, since both Ludwig and Slingerland would introduce product mid-flow. BTW, here's the catalog page from that first year the marching version was available. And what a bear those things were to keep the snare mechanisms working right! The successor, the Challenger was still 'challenging' it sure was better than the Super Sensitive strainer.....now that I think about it, what a perfect name!!
