This was DCI week 1972. Remember how HOT this rehearsal was just before DCI? Some of us had ice in our hats! We were so grateful to go back inside the air-conditioned hotel after the rehearsal. |

This photo is of the 1970 snare line. This was the first Kingsmen drum line, (or Kingsmen caption of any kind), to beat every corps in the nation. These next five photos were all shot by Moe Knox. Bruce Bonney and I ordered these photos from Moe, care of Lenny DiAngeles. You know Lenny - he's the VK bass drummer that married the Blue Stars' Color Guard captain. |

It was really fun doing our elbow contact pinwheels in '72. We started perfecting these turns in the fall of '71 at the Sunday marching rehearsals. |

1987 Snareline Reunion
L to R: Steve Munsey, Michael Ellerby, Lance Kellogg, Tom Float, My Cupboard, Ralph Hardimon, Terry Walker.
MIA: Bruce Bonney took the photo, Gary Wampler was at his band booster party.
We had 4 snareline reunions in a row, from '85-'88, during Christmas vacations, to get everyone together again. What fun! We even played through the show again on practice pads! |
