Full RESULTS
Bands of America
Super Regional - On Nov 1st, the Raider Band was contacted by Bands of
America and asked to compete in the Super Regional competition at the Alamodome
just 2 days later! After a scramble to arrange the logistics for this
short notice trip to the Alamodome on Nov 3rd, the Raider Band opened the BOA
competition as the 1st band to perform. While not scoring well with the
BOA judges, they performed well and gained some valuable experience inside the
cavernous Alamodome prior to competing there for State on Nov 7th.
Prelim RESULTS
STATE! - The Raider Band drew the
1st band to perform (8 am). The early performance was solid, but at
the end of day the judges listed the Raider Band in 29th position.
Nevertheless, being 29th out of 236 bands (5A) in Texas is a truly great
accomplishment. Way to go Raider Band!
