This is GREAT!

Hey there, if you could do it again what would you change in regards to lodging and being close to ski lifts? Trying to plan my honeymoon for this fall December 2024. Thanks!

If I had to guess, I would guess that somebody that can barely play a double G on any mouthpiece said something to the effect that you can only play it because of your mouthpiece. I remember in college, the rest of the marching band trumpet section saying something similar to me. I went down the line and played a double g in thier face using their own mouthpieces. The mouthpiece is not a magic wand!! Allen Vizzutti's philosophy on mouthpieces is to play on the smallest mouthpiece on which you can produce a good sound, becuase 'work smarter, not harder.' Don't worry about the haters, they'll always be out there and they'll always find something to gripe about.

Not a good idea to move the table closer to the tent if you plan on leaving your food supply at the table, since any animals that smell food will follow the aroma. I always attach my food pack to a rope that I throw around a high tree branch and secure the food in mid air.

A lot of people can do the same as you, though not all. But one thing is to make the trumpet scream, another thing is to make music with the high notes. How are you on that front?

Is this a Hoax?? Click bait? I doubt you're there alone! Maybe your buddy??Heh! Anyway, onto the next video!

You look like Chad Micheal Murray camping heh.. just saying!😊

Never go anywhere without a gun, especially in the woods.

A simpler time

Cool. Pierced ears suit you. From another Andrew with pierced ears.

3:38 - found the show off lol God their sound is soooo good, & super clean playing! The reverb of the hall just makes it that much better too

What exactly are the bungee cords for? How many?

Oh wow this is old

I think that trumpet sucks

Amazing! 💚💚🥁🥁💚💚🥁🥁

I always have protection on me. Rest assured at least 4 different types. A girl can never be certain. Just make sure you are legal where you are. I would never camp alone. It just leaves doors open that can’t be locked. At least he has his vehicle right there. I’d pack my stuff up and get in my truck.

bring weapon period.

Drummers are the coolest people I'm proud to be one lol. Wish highschools could do this too

Oh my god you actually sound like woody from Toy Story

Happy birthday to Nathan

Old school, new school…this is a great show. CLEAN. Wow! They could march. White shoes and dark pants hide nothing. Great horn line for the era. Percussion always Vanguards’ strong suit.

Great show. You’re right about the audio. Great horn line, though shy on the contras at 6. 10 snares, which is pretty unusual. Must have had some talent in ‘80. And yes, just checked the finals caption awards for 1980, and Bridgemen won high drums. 3rd place finals finish with a score of 90.05. Blue Devils, first, 27th, Second. Spirit, fourth.

Actually presenting the colors was not a tradition at that time. I am not sure when the requirement ended but it was early DCI that ended it. The Bridgemen are doing it because of the music they are playing. Totally appropriate. !980 Bridgeman - a total gas! I love his show and I loved drum corps back then, 70s into the 80s wow!

1980 DCI was in Birmingham, Alabama. Bridgemen won high drums that year, I'm pretty sure. We were on tour with them a bit towards the end of the season. We always tried to catch them--that In The Stone arrangement really hit hard. And yeah, the audio quality of the VHS from broadcast was really poor. It's not a fair representation of what those hornlines sounded like, but sadly it's all we have.

My ears.. i could not understand anything at the end... lmao wth 😅😅😅😅😅😅

How was I not expecting to hear the McNutt special as the first thing I hear in this video

Mega lot after finals with all of Gusseck's greatest hits for next year 😄

This looks amazing

Yeahhh marching bands!

A fight to see who gets the last word in. Ha! Thanks for sharing this. We combined with Crossmen in 1980 somewhere on tour. Float ran a few exercises and our horn lines- Spirit & Crossmen played together also as Jim Ott stood on top of a bus and conducted as I remember it. Fun times. These guy and girls will remember this for the rest of their lives. Such a positive activity in a negative world. Drum on!

anyone got a vid of them playing negenacht?

Clean that shit up

Is Colin aware of how big the mcnutt special is? And has he talked about it anywhere lmao

It was great to see this camaraderie and final release! It was quite a cacophony until it just faded away.

I love this, just wish the camera didn’t make me dizzy

I love this, just wish the camera didn’t make me dizzy

I wish I stayed for this greatness

the random 2 drum shots at the end not at all together is my favorite part

Everyone knows spanks 😂😂

The impact that Collin has on the community is amazing!

i was there lol

I fucking love this community

mcnutt special

ВПЕЧАТЛЯЕТ!МОЛОДЕЦ!

Are you serious? Things went horribly wrong? I’m so tired of dishonesty.

I'm marching pit what's that?

Sound system😂😂😂😂😂😂

7:08 FRRRR just playing longtones and not moving is the most difficult bc theres nothing to take your mind off the pain of holding it up

This took a little weight off my shoulders.... just a little haha

The bridge when were very cool back in the seeing them live was amazing I was in the Connecticut Milford shoreliners at the time back in the I wish I could find videos of myself marching
