Since we are talking about drumcorps history, any stories or memories of the Bayonne Bridgemen? They are definitely one of my all time faves

Those Delucia lines in the early 80's revolutionized drumming. There were lots of great lines back in those days but Bridgemen absolutely threw it in your face. They were so much fun to watch.

Hey,

Just so you know, we're STILL throwin' it in your face! Bridgemen might be an alumni corps, but Dennis is still putting together some great charts and the drumline is throwin' down.

I don't know if either of you will be around for it, but we'll actually be closing DCI weekend in Allentown. We're going on last on Saturday.

Haha, it's all good. Some people don't know that we're around as an alumni corps.

I wasn't even born for Black Market Juggler. However, I do know the technique for the extended 16ths. We bug Dennis every now and again to consider doing BMJ.

Unfortunately, I haven't seen the alumni corps in person yet but I will make a valiant effort to do so this summer. If you guys are still throwin' down then you've peaked my interest. I will look you up when I get there Cadet.

It's a great time with some great charts. We've got an awesome snare line (including Mr. Prosperie) and a solid drumline. I know that these charts are written to be as close as possible to the originals.

We'll be closing the Allentown weekend, going on last... come and see if you're around.
