  1. Amazingly, these four bands were not just from the same area but from the same district! Makes Friday night halftime pretty competitive!

     

     

    This actually was repeated in Area F as well - Friendswood and Dawson are both in Region 17, were the only two state qualifiers from Area F, and both made finals last year at 4A state (4th and 8th respectively). So Area D and F advanced both of their bands to state finals....might have been one of the first times that 6 finalists came from only two regions.

    Thoughts?

  3. Programs that get 100k, or 50k, or even 30k, pumped into their shows are the ones who work their arses off for that money. It isn't handed to them on a silver platter, they have to work for it - everyone from directors to students to boosters, by fundraising, promoting, etc. There is no reason why those programs should have to share that hard earned cash with programs that don't bother doing anything besides getting Title I money. No reason at all.

  4. If it's a Buffet, there's a little seal that says Buffet (unless it's really, really old - I'm talking like 30+ years). It'll also have serial numbers engraved into the upper and lower joints. You can track the age of the professional models using the serial numbers and Buffet's website.

     

    I've only got expieriance with the E-11, the R-13, and borrowed C-13 and RC Prestiges myself, however. I don't know if that holds true for their plastic models, never having even touched one.
