1975 Muchachos.
Now that brings back memories. But, I'd have to go with the corps I ran with...the Crossmen, baby.

Much! Gotta love that hornline!


One of my favorite corps was Suncoast Sound back in the 80's. And my favorite is obviously my Alma Mater. (PR)


Least favorite is by far the Cavaliers.



Favorite show of all time? 1978 Phantom Regiment or 1998 Cadets.

GREAT corps with one of the all time best snare lines and a smoking hornline.
You mean like this one:
