Thanks for the comment. Now if I could just get the beautiful babies to watch!! (I can't believe that guy didn't get the "Swingers" reference)

I was with the Scouts from 1980-1982. I just saw myself, 28 years ago, age 21, with my brothers. (Horn line shot between 1:42-1:45) Seems like yesterday. Yes, at age 50, with family and career responsibilities, I tear up when this song is played. If you get the chance to march drum corps, be it with the Scouts or anyone else, DO IT!

Bein a Scout was the best decision I've ever made. MYNWA

@RegimentalFury Ditto.

Yes this is what being a Madison Scout is all about. And what is so wonderful about this tradition is others drum corps understand and respect as we do. After my first miserable high G solo attempt Sie Lurye, director of the Royal Aires, found me wandering the parking lot, placed that huge arm around my shoulders and told me it was OK. All I had to do was remember what the song represented and the notes would always be there... And this from one of our major competitors... MYNWA Sie.

Rifle, '81 and '82. I had hair then and no gut. The best times of my life. DCI Midwest win was the ultimate.

@kbennettedwards I watched you when I was stationed in England in 88. One of my favorite Scout shows. I was amazed.

I was a Scout in 1988 and will never forget that day playing in Holland during the soccer championship and the party in Amsterdam afterward. Glad you enjoyed it - we did too! I was lucky to have four magical years with the Scouts and aged out in 1988. Can't put into words what a positive experience it was.

I marched Blue Devils 74-77. The classiest moment in drum corps history was at DCI finals in '76. The Madison soloist did not play for the crowd, but turned and played to the Blue Devils.
