Loved this show! Wish I still had my dress, I had to loan it to some one for winterguard. Are guards smaller now? I watches a 2010 WG show and there were only 13 girls, another guard had 15...

In 1994, Clovis West attended the 30th Annual Selma Marching Band Festival. Using this routine, they won the Field Show Sweepstakes. Director Ramiro Barrera and his group of musicians did a superb job. Clovis West is also a two time Grand Champion of the Selma Marching Band Festival winning the top award in 1985 and 1990. Unfortunately, Clovis West has not been back since 1994. Come back to Selma next year for the 46th Annual Selma Marching Band Festival!!

Variation No.3 (The opener), might be my favorite piece of music ever written, and I've always wondered what a marching band would do with it. SCV did The Epilogue in '97, but this is just incredible.

Thanks for the comment, unbearablepleasures. This was an amazing experience. I'm always impressed by what we could do as kids and what I saw by various groups at Western States, DCI and WGI, etc.

Can I just say, thank you sooo much for posting this video. This is my freshmen year in high school and my first time seeing a (the classification at the time) was a AAA band. My first viewing was at the Madera show and I was BLOWN away by the artistry that come out of a high school. That evening I fell in love with the world of the marching arts. It made me go back to my own marching band rehearsal and work all the much harder.
