Probably a tribute to the Velvet Knights' now legendary 1992 DCI show, since this show features VK alums. The braids and viking hat were worn by the "fat lady" who brought that whacked out show to an end by singing and getting eaten by a shark! That performance was only good for 10th place at 1992 DCI finals, yet in 2005 it was voted as one of the top 10 drumcorps shows of ALL TIME! Do a search for "velvet knights" and you'll find a vid of their 1992 DCI final show. Fun and all out joy...

OK, I have to ask about the braids... who's idea was it? The reason I have to ask... well... go to my myspace page (slash snakelady) And scroll down the page (look on the left side of the page). I created similar braids out of yarn and attached them to a viking hat for our guard show beginning Jan 1995... and wondered if they somehow got the idea from me... or if 2 great minds really DO think alike! :) I'm in NC and we did perform our show up in NJ at WGI regionals. I love the video, BTW!
