Mr Dustin used to smoke those cigars that I swear were rolled by Bandini

[rankor73]

Thanks for showing this! Great memories. I was in Belmont's Marching Band from 89, 90, and 91. I was in All City 90 and 91.

I remember in 91 practicing in Wilson HS and we upset one of the instructors and he yelled, "All City, your horn angles SUCK!" We were all shocked.

Glad one of the shields was from Bell High School

lol

Atleast she got our school announced

[PrideOfDaValley]

haha yeah. Back in that day Belmont, Garfield and Bell were in the 4A division so there was a rivalry there. Thats why you hear the giggling going on when the girls from Belmont, Garfield and Bell introduce themselves.

[Pikachu24]

WOW really?

NEver knew bell was ever in the 4A division im hoping bell will soon fall back into that division, were slowly gradually growing bigger and stronger. But glad i got to watch some history after i had made history this new year 2009 at the rose parade marching snare.

I cannot believe I am seeing this video!!! I was playing trombone in this band as a tenth grader from Hamilton High School. I still remember Mr. Harris giving his speech at Dodger Stadium (the beginning of the video.) It's amazing how I can remember most of what is on this video like yesterday. I also see some fellow band members on the video. Wow! Thanks for posting this, and thanks for the big blast from the past.

Haha, yeah man, I was a freshman out of Belmont that year. I was going through some old tapes and found this. I'm glad it brought back some memories.

[deadmistress18]

i wanna do this, but i think i'm too late. looks like a lot of fun.

[PrideOfDaValley]

yeah its too late for this season.

[deadmistress18]

i thought so. how about next season?

[PrideOfDaValley]

you'd have to still be in school.

[deadmistress18]

i knew it. how about if i turn into a super senior? good idea? bad idea?

[PrideOfDaValley]

terrible idea. GO march PCC, they do the rose parade too.

[deadmistress18]

*pouts*

i'm not gonna go to PCC after graduation.

[psymonsays511]

that's not mr white is it?

[PrideOfDaValley]

No thats Mr Harris. I believe he's one of the founders of all city. I know my kids from Locke will kill me for not knowing this, but I'm pretty sure he and Don Dustin founded it. I could be wrong. hahaha

[psymonsays511]

oh ok. mr. white really takes after him haha
