some old corps photos


Recommended Posts

it was just a suggestion, because it seemed that no one was looking at the first couple hundred pages anymore!

See, I think that's why this thread needs to be kept forever. There are always new people coming to DCP, and many of them may not have looked into the Historial forum yet, so they may not be aware of these photos. Can you imagine the thrill experienced by someone who has never seen a photo of him- or herself marching, and then starts going through this thread and suddenly stumbles onto a photo with him or her in it?

Thank you so much for keeping your photos posted. And Malibu, thanks so much for doing all that work to archive these photos on CD. If nothing else, that will be a priceless back-up, and a treasure you'll want to keep.

These are some 1984 Blue Devils pictures for Sam s., 84BDsop:

Apologies for the tiny resolution. I will dig out some more that don't feature yours truly so much as I think everyone would be more interested in full corps shots. These wre taken at the 1984 Blue Devils Family Night in Concord, CA. My father was able to get right down to the front sidelines to take them.

These are all during 'La Fiesta' I think. That's Andy Johnston in the middle of this last one. Sam, care to identfy some more persons in there?

Yes, that's right!!! That rocked. I had the uniform jacket for years, carried it every where I moved, until I left it in Madsion. Orange and black, weren't they? Were you there with Zig?

Mike,

Would you perhaps be talking about Orange high school band? I loved you guys. My high school band also had the same uni's as the Black Knights. I still have my entire uni, including the "chrome dome".

Mike,

Yea, I know some people don't want to even hear the word band, but back in the mid '70's OHS was on the cutting edge of High School bands taking on the "corps style".

We were very proud of "borrowing" anything that worked from corps all over the country. It is always an honor when people remember us. The sad news is that the district that OHS is located in just suspended all middle school music programs, so the feeder network is dead, and any hope of a top competitive program is all but lost.

I'll rattle your memory a little, and see if you remember the piccollo and tuba duet we did ? That was yours truly on Tuba. I would love to post a few photos here, but I'd be banned for life! :angry:
