Looks like the foundations of a World Championship show right there! Off to Europe, new uniforms, new buses, a 50th anniversary and a spin wedge and boom.... we win it all. Still holds such fond memories for me today. The Madison Scouts and the experiences I had when I was young still guide me today in all that I do. Watching my son be a Madison Scout today and all his successes just makes it even better. To all my brothers.... May You Never Walk Alone.
I'm assuming you know Mike Burke then?? He helped with his Alma mater GRC 's low brass in 89, 90, 91. We did this show. It's on here GRC band 1991 if u wanna check it out. We were 5th at GNC In indy in 91. 6th in 92. Then our superintendent retired, and a football players mom took over, and defunded the band and they been a joke ever since. It's sad.
Well, you can definitely tell this is early season. So cool to see this though, to see all the changes that would be put in later down the line for a truly special show.
The cymbals haven't even put in the part at the end yet, they're just standing around the mellophone. This is like seeing the story boards to the final movie.
Well deserved title that year. It's really amazing how much this corps improved all season. I'm assuming this early season show scored maybe mid 70s. I could be wrong. But they were legendary at finals
Ah...the original, pre-firehose fugue. Truly a thing to behold! or is it behear? I wonder what number would have ended up on Mac's clicker for that run through?
Pre-firehose fugue as well as the short lived octet. As far as Mac, he would need two! Even if he did, he couldn't click that fast. The mud in that performance! We had no idea how good we'd be.
thanks so much for digitizing and posting this! aaah the memories!
Clean as a whistle on finals night. Glad they won. 😎

That baritone section was beastly...
what an interesting look at our show at memorial day camp. so many things we added for finals, no terror turn, and lots of music edits and drill edits

I don't know how late that went in, but there are lots of earlier-season show videos where they're not doing anything but standing there.
Every superhero has a humble origin story.

Would loved to hear the original soprano solos. Still very impressive though.
