I love how the 80's writing still left "room" for the entirety of the overall musical presentation to be heard. Not every section playing every possible rhythm every single second...

If they find this you being hella sued bro.

This show changed my perception of what it meant to be “musical” as a percussion section. Thank you!

I'll never forget seeing the huge difference in SCV's output between their first show of the season where they scored 56.1 (June 12th) and the next time I saw them at Long Beach, CA in mid July. This first show in June was tough to watch. But when I next saw them at Long Beach, they had improved so much. At Long Beach, their score was up to 79.9 and the improvement in their output was writ large. SCV deserves a LOT of credit for how much they grew over the 1993 season.

Love this Drumline!! Will always be one of my top 5 lines of all time

STILL one of the top 5 SCV beautiful “Closers”. And it feels like the music itself, was saying farewell to Gail Royer. Beautiful, Sad, Mysterious and delivered with the utmost respect. 🫡 ❤

Drum solo and closer are the balls 🥜

Ralph’s musical writing has never been matched. So supportive and expressive and loaded with so much nuanced demand. Truly perfection. This book doesn’t seem to get enough attention, imo.

I used to use the ending of the opener as my alarm clock in college! Please help me with the quads... Murray Gusek, Mike Opadca, Collin McNutt, and I never met the other guys. You five (especially 91 and 92) inspired me to march 3 years in Scouts (94 - 96), then. North Texas (2000 - 2003). I owe you all so much for the rich life I've led because of all of your influence from your hard work and elite talent... you all showed me how to play quads.

I miss those old unis so bad. They looked like gods.

Awesome show. Did come a long way from the start to finish!

@11:26 “Saucesome”

I almost marched Vanguard this year, but couldn't afford it. Plus I wasn't very good lol

Spectrum judge has not mentioned one thing about the drumming, lack of rudiments, even the execution. He's all psyched up on the sounds they making, rather than their drumming techniques and overall execution. They are playing very simple parts, with very very few rudiments. Old-school drumlines with judge tan their difficulty number of rudiments that playing and how well they are executing those rudiments together, not Buzz rolls hand-to-hand tops and rim shots. This is just my opinion. December 14th 2022

Sevierville...man that field sucks. You literally can't see the person on the opposite sideline. Also, I've slept in the Sevierville HS gym (Dolly Parton's alma mater) which was shaped like a big boob.

I remember in '97 or so, some audio (of course) clips of this line started popping up on the 'Net. The writing is so cool! 1993 is one of my favorite shows. Seems like a really difficult show design.

Very good! the only down side for me is that I wish the drums could sound the way they did in the 70s.

I like this show so much more than 91.

Yup! I wouldn't want that part.

Hi... Fine, thanks

Karl Lowe and Rob Jett taught here.

Ummm who taught the colorguard .they are so clean.

I can't even listen to this all the way through. This judge sucks. I heard at least 15 things to comment on in the first :45. "Good" "Beautiful" "So nice" are not helpful critiques when you are trying to get better as a line OR MORE IMPORTANTLY, need the judge to point out things that you have been saying all week(s) on tour. My buddy Wayne Viar got a nice shout out for his timpani playing.

I remember seeing this show live that year in Houston and just being floored by how much these dudes were just flat-out booking it for much of the show. That was some really tough drill, not that this is anything new for Vanguard; their drills often seemed more difficult than most drumcorps.

Yep, the tympanic roll was off.

"Whatever, that configuration is?!?!" Your a percussion judge dont you know.

Old heads with some hands! Love it!

8:37 The air raid/bombing sequence into this vocal deserves an award.

Flams. ScoJo puts that stuff on everything! It's like hot sauce....only better.

Been in search of this tape since 1996

He enjoyed that as much as I did.

I mean, it’s cool he was so excited. But it’s concerning a DCI judge was so inarticulate and failed to intelligently comment on so many aspects of performance and design. It’s an unhelpful judge’s tape. But it’s so cool to hear this amazing battery and pit up close. Thanks for posting.

I haven’t heard this since we sat down as a line to listen to it the day after the show. Thanks for the memories man.

I love Ralph Hardimon’s writing, especially at SCV.

Xmas came early

"Triplet figures...or whatever that configuration is" LOL

My brother! I remember drumming with you on your porch in SLO like it was yesterday. Would love to hang with you again!

This is one of the most underrated drumcorps shows and drumlines ever. I saw the corps practice live in Houston and they were crazy good given their circumstances that year. One of my favorite all time drumlines.

Do you still have the music to this

Loved this show. May not have been among their higher scoring shows but it was beautifully put together and in the classic Santa Clara style. Wonderful musical book and the ending using Henry Vth is just so majestic. @8:30 to enjoy the final push.

For the record, I just love the hit at 1:07.

this was really good! 1:06 oh youuuu

I was there. It was hot.

Do you happen to have the finals video?

Do the 2 shmucks need to be running around with the drum line during a run through. Just wondering what they accomplished doing that. Annoying

Was at Finals that year, not a lot of people in Jackson for DCI, but I did see this show, loved it, and got to see the epic Star performance.

The quality of sound those snares got with only six in the line and no projectors in amazing... SERIOUSLY underestimated drumline.

Hell yeah, I remember watching this run.
