Bob Brady Posted February 9, 2006 Share Posted February 9, 2006 That's right, Nanc... the "Vistalite's" were clear. Some clear clear, and some colored clear. Muchacho's had red clear Vistalites, and Guardsmen had orange clear Vistalites. I did not know that 27th had vistalites at one time...interesting. I recall the Guardsmen had problems with the tenors shells cracking where the slings/harness were attached. They would probably look kinda goofy in today's corps, but they were cool back then. Osage had gold Vistalites in 75-76. Did a thing at the end of the drum solo where a flashcube was rigged up inside the snares and set off a big flash on the last note. Really cool effect, especially at night shows. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's amazing what you can do with contact paper. ECJ did the same thing with the concert toms in the pit. They were actually 1970's Ludwig Gold Sparkle wrapped drums with Green Marble contact paper covering the wrap. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kmansdrummin Posted February 9, 2006 Author Share Posted February 9, 2006 Those octobons sounded very cool. They looked very heavy as well. I watched Kilties from the sidelines in '78. (Props to the rifle dude did a flip and popped his knee and another guy in stopping to pop it back in so he could continue on. It was rather ugly to watch.Mom PS. Some good video of some lines from '05 http://www.vicfirth.com/features/DCI2005.html Mom, I was there. Looked painful. I love the Renegades drums, also like the 04 Vanguard and the Pacific Alliance/Lions Cross, red with black and chrome. (Kinda Santa Claraish) Can see at "pacall.net".

Hulka Posted February 9, 2006 Share Posted February 9, 2006 (edited) 1991 (Marroon) & 1992 VK - the obnoxious yellow that was originally intended for the Cadets, but they refused them 1991 1992 No, no... in '93 the Cadets refused the maroon drums with yellow hardware that eventually found their way into SCV's hands. The neon yellow drums VK used in '92 were only ever VK's. In fact, they got them that color by painting them drums with automobile paint.

drummer5485 Posted February 9, 2006 Share Posted February 9, 2006 Cavaliers 2000-2001, I don't know what it is about those drums but the natural finish with the chrome hardware is just...beautiful. IMHO those are the classiest, most beautiful drums I've seen. Also Vanguard 2004 (looked like leaopard print?) were sweet and really looked good against the uniform.
