Glad to see JPT band still kickin'. I was in marching band for the 90-91 year (my graduation year), and we took first place in our division as well as Grand Champions at Cape Coral - rode out there directly after marching in the Our Town parade... was crazy. Our director at the time was Mr. Jenkins and his assistant was Mr. Dunayer (I believe). Good times.
Our drumline scored 99.9, I believe (I still have the final score sheet stored away somewhere in my JPT Archive). All around a great-performance. JPTs marching band always seems to do really well. Has the football team improved at all? They were pretty sorry back then; I remember one football team-member actually had placed a bet against them. Ouch.
it is true tho that although sebastian river was clearly incredible, jpt and eghs were very much about on the same level. eau gallee's show was kinda weird tho and jpt's didn't hit it's highest potential emotionally---maybe like 98.2% of the way there in my opinion and i'd attribute that to just a lack of "wanting it completely" throughout the entire band- that seems to be our problem in the past 2 years.
every band deserves their placement, those little bandies worked soo hard and if you saw it from where the judges were sitting you could see it a little more clearly. taravella's has very consistent marching fundamentals and executes difficult to hide drill very well. this year the lines were awesome which is more than i can say for a lot of the bands at finals any year.
mmaaannnnnn give south broward half of those ppl and watch a true power house..we wouldnt be touched...
