I lived in NY from 1967 to 1979 and became a member of Despers USA in 1976. We entered our first Brooklyn Panorama in 1977 placing 8th.
We changed the name of Despers USA to Metropolitan Steel Ensemble in 1978; and I suggested why not abbreviate to "METRO STEEL." We placed 2nd in 1978 and I relocated to California in October 1979.
