- "The Marching Graph Paper". The Apaches perform "Rifle Regiment" by John Philip Sousa to win their third straight Mayors Trophy, retiring the trophy for the unprecedented third time with a score of 94.75 and a sweepstakes win.
Still the best in the land. I was 30 as a spectator. Chills up and down my spine when I saw them.
WOW this is terrific!! I was in the Arcadia Marching Band in the 67-69 years, played tenor sax. Wonderful memories, so exciting those competitions were. We also retired the trophy, like this band did.
What great memories this brings back! As front row center guide that year, winning Long Beach was probably the highlight of my senior year.
With my own son following in my footsteps this year at our local high school, I've talked about this exact "marching graph paper" video many times. I never thought I'd have the chance to show it to him. Thank you so much for posting it!
I love this, haven't seen it in years. I was very proud to be a part of this group and honored to be their Drum Major. Thank you, whoever, for posting this.
I believe I was in the drumline this year. My first (grade 10) and only year in the band before my family moved back to Canada. A great band and alot of fun at all the parades. Tall Flags, drill team...oh yeah!
THE TEMPO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Holy crap!!!!! This is sooooooooooo awesome!
First you check the tempo.......then you watch the band from the top and....say it again.
woooooow!!!!!!!!!!! This makes me realize that while bands today may play more musically, they look pitiful compared to this! The feet! The carriage! The perfect posture of the banners. And then theres the M&M....I like the simplicity of the banners that don"t move all around, just look classy as hell!
+Timbobtim4 I agree. The banners hopping around now makes it look sloppy.
@SpikefanTheTerrible It was my pleasure. Glad it brought back some memories for you.
@biggiantjohn Outstanding, so glad I could bring this back for your son and you to enjoy!
Very impressive Drum Major.
@biggiantjohn Yes I do, and yes I will post them, I have a few other gems from that era that I will upload. Stay tuned, thanks for the feedback.
Thank you for dusting off this old relic. This was probably the best musical performance at Long Beach during my three years at AHS (80-82). Slightly older Apaches may recognize a former AHS drum major as he passes in front of the camera at street level.
PS - any more videos? I'd love to see our field show that year! I think that's the year my dad, as booster president, did the narration...
It is so awesome to see this again. It gave me goose bumps. We were prefect and I am so proud to have been a part of this. I will never forget how quiet and tense it was while waiting to step off. There was this electricity in the air between everybody. My dad took some great photos of groups of people at that moment. Fantastic, we were soooo young. Wonder how everyone is doing. It was an outstanding group of kids. Thanks for the memories.

Wowwww ❤❤❤❤ fenominal then.. and now continuously the best 👌 the Arcadia apache marching band for ever
@rbjnla You were awesome that day, it starts from the top. Great that you were able to see this again. Make sure you check the indoor performance too (I'm sure you did), another outstanding performance. To have one of Arcadia's best drum majors check in is indeed an honor.
Alto sax 78 to 80 Allison and Landis. Best full time job i ever had.lol
