Thank you Tubalord, Wandering Traveler and AnthonyV for all your post and observations during the season. See yall hopefully next season!

No problem, we usually have misidentification with Birdville High School in our district and Richland, Haltom high schools encompass Birdville ISD.

On a brighter note from a Richland Band Parent/Volunteer since 2007 an observation from one of our Parent/Volunteer: I want to share something incredible with you! In state finals over the past 3 years, I have been Blue Crew, box truck driver, chaperone, section parent, and lots of other things in between. However yesterday, WE were the recipient of PRAISE. The Front Ensemble was coming off the field with our equipment and scrims in the state finals and the Lone Star band was clapping and cheering for us at the exit, as they were waiting to enter the field for their performance. Telling us great job band! Good job prop crew! Etc. Does it change our performance? No. Did it cost them anything? No. Did it give me an AMAZING PERCEPTION of Lone Star? YES!!! That’s what good sportsmanship is all about! I loved seeing their example! I have done some of this in the past for other bands, but I’m going to do better at every football game, contest, and every representation of RHS Band going forward. We Are Richland Band and we are AWESOME! We can encourage the other bands competing with us!

Richland High School -North Richland Hills, TX (Birdville ISD)

You can include Richland, they are not big but awesome directors keep us legit.

This season has been the worst prelim performance times since I’ve been with Richland. But it has prepared the band for this moment. I was at the practice at the stadium on Monday with the pre show and closer presentation . It’s a wonderful production on par with 2023 and definitely better than 2024. I think it will be an eye opening show since it has not been performed in any contest or game. Even at the Aledo game it was cut short due to time.

I look forward to your observations, I enjoy hearing breakdowns of bands.

Congratulations to all the bands and special shoutout to the great folks in the stands for enduring so brutal weather. Richland is not peaking yet but headed in the right direction. I can’t wait for the final product in the Area contest. I believe they will do very well.

Thank you for this info, I enjoy learning and reading feedback on lower tier programs that don’t get any press. I know the upper tier programs get a lot of mentions but there are no surprises their, let’s talk about all programs and once in while mention some good programs out there.

Definitely will watch their performance and get an idea where this program is at.

I’ve been with Richland since 2007 and seen all their shows. I’ve seen the glory years, the low years and recently the resurgence. I love this years show “The Third Dimension “ and believe it will bring some good results. Richland has a wonderful band program and I wish more attention was spent on programs that are not on the top tier and everyone knows who they are but that’s fine they are a respected program and I have had wonderful memories of all their performances.

I hear you Anthony on Richland. I’ve been with Richland since 2007 and have been in some hard times the last 4-5 years. But you keep supporting them and hope we can turn this around. The current group you saw only 1 senior so have a lot of growing to do .

Any results?
