This band is really big but im not hating but there not all that.Our band had a competition there called battle on the border and there music is so simple just listen to it.
@jesttenrobinson As a Show band, music complexity isn't as big for us as it would be for a BOA band. But check out this year's (2010) show, its a good bit more complex.
And just for the record there has never been a band at Battle on the Border that could beat the Bridgemen at any of the competitions we attend.
@DrumCorps80 - - Actually a larger band in competitions hurts.. mistakes are more visible so are the lines.. what sets this band apart.. no sheet music! all the music is written for the band by its band directors. They focus on sound.. spine chilling sound. The Latin Show also on You Tube was written by Victor Lopez arranger for Gloria Estaphan
@kohl3001 seriously. it is so hard for us to get superior ratings since we are so big. kinda sucks, but it's the sound that gets'em. and it is so awesome to hear them cheering through-out the ENTIRE show. GO BRIDGEMEN!
with love,
