sarnia sam Posted October 14, 2005 Share Posted October 14, 2005 Did Santa Clara in 1981 really do the first asymmetrical drill?what was the highest note hit during a sop solo? Please add your own as they come to mind. This should be a great list of who did what. As mentioned it was 80 for SCV, but Bridgemen did a rotating and axis moving form in 78, and without dragging out the DVD I'm pretty sure 27 did too. Highest note, Chris Metzger, end of Bond Street n 74. Neighbourhood dogs always barked. Regards, John Swartz Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Malibu Posted October 15, 2005 Share Posted October 15, 2005 I believe the year in question for SCV's asymetrical drill was 1980, not 81. That was also the year they did"The Planets" with the pseudo "moonwalk". Really cool effect at the time. The show was ahead of it's time and the scores reflected it.........dropping out of the top 3 for the first time to 7th place.They came back with a vengeance in 81 however to win. Hmmmm.....................could history repeat itself?? :) Although SCV may have been the first corps to do mostly an all asymetrical drill in 1980, they were not alone that year. We did asymetrical in "The Planets" part of our show. The judges told our staff they did not how to judge it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So it appears that the asymetrical drill happened in 1980, and it was 27th, SCV, and Crossmen all the same year?. wow..kind of like' this year with yowza tikki tur and digga digga's.

audiodave Posted October 15, 2005 Author Share Posted October 15, 2005 i'm sorry...let me clarify. By asymmetrical drill I mean the entire show, not just one move or just a few minutes during the show. I mean like it is now. or was it gradual? did it start with a few moves and eventually the whole show over time? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It doesn't matter to me how much if the question was "who was the first." That's like the indoor guard argument about who was the first to use a floor. 1986 Pride of Cinn. gets mentioned first but folks forget that Erete used pieces of a floor the year before. To me Erete should get the credit as they were the "first" ones to incorporate it into a show. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hmmmm.....................could history repeat itself?? :) Yes Bob it is 1980...but I had seen visions of asymetrical drills in other shows before this one, I just wonder if this was the actual first asymetrical drill all the way through the show? :) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
