this is so cool and great history, l started with a class c corp the Continentals of Norwood Mass in 68, winter of 70 they folded and the 21st lancers started up as a feeder corp to 27th, marched with 21st till 77 when they folded and i joined the Boston Crusaders for the 78 and 79 season, my age out.. created a work ethic, goals, how to give it your alll and be the best you can be and life long familiy and friends

Young Legend in the making, Gail Royer as a PUPPY! I joined the Blue Devils in 1978 having not gone to a Drum Corps show; but THIS SHOW was what reeled me in. I listened to SCV, Cadets, Crusader, Blue Stars, North Star, Cavaliers, Phantom, and Blue Devils on vinyl over and over and over, though, imagining myself on the field in the SCV ensemble. The Homs were rough hewn and tone quality beasts, but the brilliance and power that kids could squeeze from them was amazing. Electrifying and unique sound, now, gone.

Wish I had a pair of those amazing McCormick drum sticks from the 70's. I learned the bulk of my rudimental playing on those as a kid.

Glad you liked them. White Oak from Japan and hand tested for matching.

I love seeing everyone’s game face as they come on and off the field and at retreat. I miss that type of discipline in the activity today.

"I didn't think I had any particular talents..." Now these days you have to not only be essentially a musical prodigy to march anywhere, you also have to be rich. $4000-6000 for tour fees alone not including the other myriad expenses is absolutely ridiculous. That's a full semesters worth of tuition at a cheap CSU here in California for what is now an incredibly niche, insular activity.

So sorry no part 2 ! However Vanguard won the show . Look for "50 Year History of Drum Corps" that we also produced, featuring the Cavaliers.

Thanks for posting this. Would you happen to have any old MBA vids to post? Late 70s/Early-mid 80s especially. Trying to find old vids of the Pearl HS Marching Band from Mississippi at MBA.

In my opinion, DCI is the reason for the demise of what was one of the greatest youth activities in North America they've turned it into a marching band competition, superimposed on a three-ring circus. Former member of the Long Island sunrise in 1964 through 1968. May they all rest in peace😂😂😂😂❤❤❤❤😢😮

Yes that was the man. We caught his band on tour in Chicago when Peer Erskine was his drummer, and our contact to Stan..What an amazing man indeed and so humble !
