neonvincentI promised that I'd post the pregame from the 1979 Band Day. Here it is.
This is more complete than the one at Stanford earlier that month and not only because the camera caught the first two minutes of the show but also because the drill into the Star Spangled Banner is only performed at home games. In addition, I added more flagwork to the show, particularly near the end of Crown Imperial. Before, there was no headchopper move. Now, there is one. Flagwork is still sparse; I could have added another 30 seconds in Crown Imperial, another minute in Be True to Your School and another minute in the Annie-People medley, but I can't travel back in time to tell 20-year-old me that. Oh, well.
By the way the first two minutes are probably the best example of corps style drill for the 1979 UCLA Band. In a few days, I'll post the 1980 pregame and the transition will be even more apparent.
