um, you might want to watch the DVD again. This is 1990. I marched with the center tenor in this video in college. He was not in the center in 1989. The snares did similar down-the-line rimshots in both '89 and '90. Maybe that's what's confusing people.
@thejog2k ....hmm they do a similar version to da drum solo they had 1989.."New World Symphony"...and i like it better...its longer :P...im a trombonist but i still like them drums lol
Officially, I think that Jeff Prosperie was the caption head, but that Hurley and Wooton still collaborated on the composition of the score, if I recall correctly.
Yes, Marty is a genius no matter what JessOnTheRun says.
I like being linked to him. I was giving a free clinic for these kids who had moved to my area after Katrina. One of the boy said you play just like my instructors ( a former Brother Martin student and Hurley protege'). I told him that there was a good reason for that: we had the same teacher.
I'd like to see this whole show. To be honest, this upper battery is very much more mature than either '91 or '92. Look at the stick heights in the tenor line-- the snare line just looks like they get it! I don't care if the book is old school I like the way their hands work.
There is only one person in that line that wasn't a veteran. He came from the Black Nights and had been marching for years.
As for the hands, that is the way Marty plays and so it is the way we played. You can tell a PR snare player who came from that era, even today: simply the best...better than all the rest.
1990 was a fun show from PR. This was at the end of their "Carnival of the 'Drum Corps'" segment, where they poked a little fun at their competitors. Leading into this percussion feature, the corps light-heartedly performed musical and visual motifs of SCV, Madison, Cadets and Cavaliers.
If JessOnTheRun doesn't like PR in the late 80s and early 90s, then why does he feel the need to watch? Just remember, Mr. Hurley is well known and respected, but JessOnTheRun is a rudimental ghost.
I couldn't agree with you more!!!! 1990 was the first year I saw DCI on TV, consequently PR Dreams of Desire was the first show I ever saw. What luck!!! I firmly believe that the best years for DCI was 1990-93.....the perfect combination of tradition and innovation. I marched PR in 94, which that entire season missed the mark for me somehow (speaking of DCI as a whole) and never quite got up to par again after that.
93 and 96 had some good lines, but it wasn't until Paul Rennick came in and took them the PR drumline to a whole new level of excellence. They are the standard in DCI.
I marched 1990 with G-men and we did half the summer tour with Phantom.
This is 1990.
I remember learning the snare solo with Kevin Hollis...who had a damn eidetic memory for everyone's solos.
It's Rich Stadium.
Plus you can see JJ Pipitone in the Tenor line.
89 he was Dutch Boy.

That snare solo may be the same-old, same old, but that tenor line FREAKING SINGS. There are some bad-ass dudes in that tenor line.

They are the sames ones that they wore in 1989. If you want a better idea of how they look, then type in Phantom Regiment 1989.
