If the Internet had been around "back in the day"


Recommended Posts

OK, amps, vocals, finances, corps folding are the topics today that generate a lot of heat and posts.

Pick some events from DCs past that would have kicked off the flames and filled up the servers with posts.......

Two to start

1966 American Legion Championships - did the drum sticks really fly????

1975 - Who the #### is Rochester Phoenix and how did they come in 5th at DCA. :drool:
