If you get everyone in the bands to watch the videos, and then vote for the best band posted, I will post the rest of the schools.. If the number of people who have watched increases, and commented you can have a replay rematch. There is no need to be nasty to each other.

it's pathetic that houston had to go to jonesboro to actually place well in a competition. they were very unprofessional during the award ceremony, and in my opinion were pretty undeserving of 1st place

We were actually decent in 2006 =/ Been downhill since.

i think munford is overrated. but we did kinda suck last year so they deserved to win. but we'll be back next year

in 2006 (my freshman year) houston had the one of the most talented freshman classes in its history, together with one of the best senior classes we won 1st in every competition including Bandmaster's except austin peay we got 3rd =/ but anyway this upcoming 2009 show is gnna be awesome, with our 2006 freshman becoming seniors and our "refuse to lose" attitude...i wish Munford the best of luck at the competitions that we aren't at

Jim Smith is an idiot. Houston band and color guard are talented as hell, he just picked shitty ideas. AN AMERICAN IN PARIS WAS THE BEST SHOW WE EVER DID.

Haha, Houston is pronounced house-ton not Huston

[rudygay2]

@copedapope2425 unproffesional...dont get all mad dat we beat u guys rear ends. We worked hard for that win and just because we're not from arkansas doesn't mean we cant compete in that state. We go to many states for competitions like MS, AL, AR, and KY. So stop bitchin'

[MrBlackjack24]

@JessOnTheRun The percussion line is lead by one of the best insructors in the region so dont be bashing on the percussion bitch!

[JessOnTheRun]

as soon as battery enters, it sounds very high schoolish... too bad the percussion doesnt have an instructor and poorly written... the rest of the ensemble sounds very good.

[lalacourts55]

@copedapope2425 if we win it we deserve to celebrate. and at least we're not bunch of stiffs with poles up our butts like the rest of the bands.  there's actually a lot of technicality and precision as well as creativity to a lot of the moves and drill patterns. and we won bandmasters mulitple times and are 4 time defenders of the vanderbilt competition. unprofessional are we?

[MrBlueCrimson]

But in all seriousness.......... I used to laugh at bands with no all state musicians that were out acting like a bunch of badasses. In reality, All of these competitions came down to wich kids held their instruments the highest and had matching socks.

[MrBlueCrimson]

@copedapope2425 - at the awards ceremonies.

[MrBlueCrimson]

@copedapope2425, i graduated houston band in 2005.......... pretty sure they dont have to travel far to place well? We beat Munford many times. The joke is MTSU competition. Houston did amazingly well every time and hardly ever placed in the top 10. My senior year we reviewed the vids and it was perfect.. placed outside the top 10, and we had NINE all state musicians on the field.... NINE. (including myself). For me Marching band was about the music, not about being at attention and behaving -
