Todays corps are really good but it's not like the corps back then. Now they've gone to B flat bugles instead of the G bugles. I thought it was bad enough when they went to 3 valve bugles. We had the " in your face" wall of sound and no AMPS!!! I still use a 2 valve Deg Dynasty mellophone bugle and we can put up one hell of a wall of sound!!! :devil :salute

You are right FBDragon, my wife tossed rifles, not flags :) Still they are very good today.
