In July of 1978 the Largo High School Band of Gold competed in the World Music Contest in Kerkrade, Holland. This field show performance was the last event on the last day of the three week contest. The 210 high school students won 1st prize (175 points out of 180), a gold medal with distinction, and overall championship in the competition.
I was in the BOG that performed in Kerkrade in 1974. While each BOG built upon the previous year, this 1978 BOG performance is the best ever in my humble opinion. Robert Cotter was the best band director I believe in the history of High School Bands.
I was a student at Seminole HS and in the SHS band '75-'78. I was very impressed with the accomplishments of the Largo BOG. I can say you inspired us to do the hard work that won us the Virginia Beach Festival summer of '78 while you all were conquering the WORLD! Belated congratulations and respect from a Warhawk!

My brother just sent this to me. I was one of the Golden girls. Great fun times!
I was at the new PPHS (Blue Stars) and due to the Cymbalist unable to attend, I was kidnapped by Bob Sr, and marched there. The only Blue Star to do so. However, we beat the world champions it was Father VS Son. YAY! But we've done so many joint performance (Blue Stars and Band of Gold) side by side! It was awesome!
I so love watching this and remembering all the hard work, great fun, dedication it took to get there - including those who came before us and paved the way for us to compete in the open division.
And how can we ever forget inspection?!!

I wish there was video of the 1974 World Band of Gold.
Absoluut wel op TV geweest, volgens mij bij de NCRV. We hadden thuis een videoband van deze show, ken de hele compositie uit mijn hoofd.
Latere versies, waar we zelf ook bij waren, leverden ook beelden op TV op van o.a. de New Zealand Band (hun bekende show met o.a. de Pink Panter tune en het Limburgse Volkslied), de Calgary Stampede Band, De Bristol Unicorns, Portland Showband, Advendo, Beatrixband... kan ze dromen.
Geweldig dit weer terug te zien!
Nostalgie.
Het moet ook op de TV zijn geweest. Geweldig je mag mee op toernee, jouw taak is het dragen van het Podium. Wat heb ik toen genoten en nu weer. Amazing
So proud that day! Nice to see again
