I still remember seeing this show live. My jaw was hanging open the entire time.

Saw this show in Normal, IL in late June, if I recall correctly. Beat Cavies by half a point, and it was already clear that we were watching the 1991 DCI champs.

Makes me proud to be a Hoosier

Those rolls. Fuc k

Yep. I still love drum corps all eras. Here no microphones, fewer props, just straight up drum corps!

I marched dci 75 and 76 (Guardsmen from Illinois) I was at this performance dci finals in Dallas. That cross to cross fantastic! Glad I saw it live.

You know something is revolutionary when the field judge gets unintentionally trapped by the drill

Every time i need a pick-me-up i watch this. This will never stop being EPIC

That's a lot of sound for a band that size .

My dad played trumpet for them

my bands low brass instructor march contra this year and it such a brag

gorgeous and powerful saw it live twice, at the first cross the POW of the first cross and the corps flags shining the audiences gasped it was STUNNING Great show ! George Zingali rest in peace you changed DCI forever

RIP, George Zingali. We all miss you.

but scored a 97. not very high compared to other world champion scores.

The cross looks cool but it was designed wrong. Move it back on the field so people aren’t pass the sidelines. Looks odd

I don’t know if this has been shared before but George Zingali had both stars on the drill (cross to cross drill) -- it’s subtle but you can see it!

It's now 2022 and this is still the kind of drum corps I like to see on the field. NO mikes NO theatrical props and NO narration

So good! Back when corps wern't afraid to wear headgear. ...sigh

I’ll never forget watching the telecast live in ‘91 and seeing the Devils with their worst finish ever but with a great horn book, SCV’s meh performance, Phantom brilliant performance, then watch the Cavs and their drill and Rondo fawning over them. Then this… as good as the other shows were, I saw this as a large step up from what I just saw.

Star Should Had NEVER Left being a Drum Corps ! My brother and I played with the Kenosha WI Kingsmen for many years, a senior corps, but actually they maybe ? were one of the first all age corps.

Back that up 10 secs and you have the best 90secs in DCI

shoutout to johnny barr

It's just that good, folks

I was 10 when my stepdad took my mom and me to see this event. He was in SCV in '69 and '70. I loved it, but seeing all these comments about how ground breaking this was makes me love it even more.

& the crowd goes absolutely wild for jesus, raahh raahhh

OMG! I’ve been looking for this formation on video for sooooooo long! Thank you for posting it.

This was the first year I taught with Colt Cadets so we got to see this in action all summer. We even had a chance to chat briefly with Jim Zingali(Sp?). GENIOUS!!! We couldn't believe the velocity...holy smokes.

Beasts.

Lots of subsets

This show should have been in first place by at least 5 points. Phenomenal.

My marching band drill instructor that has been doing it for 40 years now, Mike Grimer, was very close friends with this drill instructor... and he explained how he was in the box with him talking about their show and how he was about to pass away and etc... he wrote the drill that he did cause he knew he was going to pass away soon.

I always love the „yeah“ in there. :) I was 13 in 92 and the 91 VHS was the first thing i ever watched of dci. One of the most epic moments i ever had as a 13 year old was watching this for the first time. I'm from germany and to march dci was like going to the moon back then. I made my age out in kiwanis 2000. Star 91 was one of the reasons that brought me there and even much further in life. thanks to all of you!

To this day, one of the best endings EVER!

A veritable masterclass of tension and release, expertly displayed on the football field. A legendary performance, not only from the musicians and guardsmen, but most importantly from the incomparable George Zingali.

That drill still amazes me

We really need a go fund me page started to bring back star

Star of Indiana, should had stayed a corps rather than the direction they went ! Kenosha Kingsmen, Mariners GO ARMY NRA USA

mDCIga

DCI is going after me for a copyright violation that belongs to someone else

This shit is absolute genius. I got to see Star practice and perform this show at DCI Midwest in Bloomington that summer. I was only 15 and I hated it. If I could go back in time to that day I would slap some sense into myself lol.

We will never hear anything like this again. A masterpiece. Those mellophones kill this. There is not a doubt in my mind that there will ever be a production that will be able to capture what they produced during the summer of 91.' It is a true work of art.

Woo! Gets by blood pumping just watching this clip

OMG!!!! i was there to watch when I was 16! its was LOUD and sweltering hot at the Cotton Bowl for DCI finals 91. Thank you Mr. Colvin for exposing us to that Art Form! still luv it!

Those visuals are so clean and cool looking holy shit

AWESOME SHOW in sweltering heat in Dallas Texas! I was there when I was 16 and I'd NEVER seen or heard anything like this before as a yound latino kid in FW. WOW!!! i Luv DCI!

The closest we will ever get to star again is Crown.

So ahead of it's time!
