Show Description
[ Courtesy: Max Schmid - - ] Shep watches very bad football game, watches for halftime show for a selfish reason. "You are listening to one of the all-time great double b flat sousaphone players from Indiana" You have to learn to buck the cross-winds. Marching Bands Vs Show Bands They had a great Drum Major - Stinky Davis "El Capitan" (Ed: Eng) Stinky had a massive ego - was fanatical - fired a trumpet player for being late, wore a monocle to school! Shep and his pal Pete play hooky from band practice to eat cheeseburgers. Playing "Semper Fidelis" on the 30-yard line - Stinky blows a whistle, but Shep doesn't know the new formation! Picture of the routine makes the front page of the school paper. Mr Wilson thinks it was a brilliant comedy routine!
