bassballs cymbalegs
The 1979 bass line poses in front of Smitty's van. One of those real olds buses (105 or 106) can be seen in the background. The Chrome Wall cymbal line had many unique looks and moves.

Roy, Ron and Jumbo: Feels so good making the finals at Mile High Stadium in Denver 1978. Vic driving a bus on tour with a most interesting tophat.

1979 rifle line at an early season parade in Peabody. Three drum instructors listen intently behind the quadline at a practice on tour in Pueblo Colorado.
toss tim
An interesting photo by Victor Vozzo. This shot captures the corps ready to march off the field after a retreat. A rifle toss is seen in the foreground. Behind you can see the snare's "fan" visual. I don't know what the hell is in the top half of the photo, but I'm sure Victor meant to do it. Some type of avant guard photo artistry no doubt. Tim Kelly shown at a lighter moment taking a bite out of his cymbal. After a stint in the Marine Corps, Tim passed away at too young an age in Texas. Tim had all the zeal, intensity and endurance to be a good Marine and to be an exceptional big cymbal player.
sue timps
Your Host with rifle Sue Cavignano at Disney World during a break from the 1980 Florida tour. The timp line at practice. Looks like Essex Aggie and I think the year was 1978.
