Re: GREAT DRUM CORPS OF THE 1950s AND 60s

Dave those 3 websites you mentioned are great to
browse through,Blessed Sac is one of my favorites
they have a lot to look at as well as the video's
that you can watch with the music included.

The other one about St.Vincents is a good one too.
If I'm not mistaken I think they talk about the 57'
National contest in Miami with the fight that
started after the scores were announced along with
the mistakes that were made with the judging.I can
almost still picture it,what a night to remember.

What did you do in the Corps? French Horn

What years were you a Corps member? 1957 thru 1963
