I think Ludwig's catalogue is still showing some marching timps too, last time I looked at one at the music store I teach at. :) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AnaheimAlumni Posted July 4, 2007 Share Posted July 4, 2007 (edited) Simply put, I won't be marching anywhere next year, thus a ticket is necessary! Dale was my instructor when I marched with the South San Francisco Conquistadors in '79 and '80. I ended up marching in BD's snareline in '81 and '82. Dale pushed chops and I give him credit for that! Houpt is the last name. Earl Brown marched with the Kingsmen, the Commodores, and the awesome '77 Freelancers snareline. I was privy to march with him last year in the Renegades. It appears a correction is in order You look AWESOME on the field Kelley. Can't wait to see you girls and guys on July 14th in Long Beach.
