It's throwing me off in the best of ways hearing this kind of show being played on G bugles, but recorded in modern, HD audio. I know G bugles were a pain to play while also staying in tune, but there's a part of me that wishes I was old enough to experience the late 90s era of drum corps, if not just for the sound.

I’m in tears. I was 7 years old in 88. And Phantom of The Opera was revelatory for me. The company front during Music of The Night…..I didn’t know music could move you to tears it was beautiful. Thank you SVC. 🫶🏾

My corps Guardsmen did not make finals in 1975, so I was in the stands for the finals. Saw the iconic bottle dance for the first time. Loved it! I have compilation videos of santa clara through the years. I have seen on on video tape. Yes tape ha. Love them all, but really enjoy the 1992 bottle dance and "scv" formation ending to great quick company front. Thank you Santa Clara!

As a Midwesterner, I was all about Phantom, Scouts and Cavies, but each year that I saw the Vanguard moved me more and more. I realize that The Blue Devils do everything in near perfection but every year the Vanguard shows like Phantom of The Opera, The Russian Christmas, Fiddler, Les Mis and Scheherazade moved be emotionally in a way The Blue Devils never could and all of those 2nd place finishes in those years were to me, and the crowd as well, The BEST shows of the year! Such Passion!!! WELL DONE SCV!!!!! btw....who are the 5 total morons that hit Dislike on this!!!

I had the honor to compete against SCV in the late 60’s and early 70’s as a member of the Blue Stars. It was unbelievable to see how they transformed drum corps back in those days. Forever proud to have been part of the activity back then and today as a volunteer and driver for the Blue Stars. We were all trailblazers back then.

I drove SCV '90-'93. It amazed me that even though the styles were completely different 20 years later, the kids were the same and the drive for perfection was/is still the same. Of course, we didn't have a food truck when I marched so there's that. ;)

I too am an alumni of the Royalaires and the Royal Commodores .. I still miss my Drum Corps having had been marching since I was 18 mo's. Old.. when I aged out I taught with many and even marched with Los Caballeros... I taught my sister who also marched with the Royal Family, the Blue Angels and on to her famed years with Blue Devils and when she aged out she taught them and continues to teach a H.S. Color Guard near Dallas, TX. I am so proud of her and her accomplishments... I look forward to seeing these videos, hearing the music and seeing the pageantry. It never gets old and seeing and hearing the music from Fiddler on the Roof. The only thing better was the Russian Sailor Dance back in the day ... I sure wish they would find a much better musically enhancing... Thanks for hearing and reading my story... Cindy McCumsey Brown

That was as close to a home show as I got that year. but the date is wrong....the RCC show was June 22. There was no show in California on June 8. The first CA show was in Concord, June 16. Do you happen to have BD's run from this show? I used to have it, but it got list years ago.

This brought back so many great memories, and lot of misty eyed tears of joy. 1989 was my first introduction to DCI and SCV. I said "I am going to do that someday", two years later I did. Still to this day, I am actively involved with the activity as a whole. It is such a great organization for young musicians to be apart of. Thank you for this video.
