whystarwhy is completely right, especially with Academy. I've heard of them not cutting certain members because they needed to fill the spot but I think now that Academy has gotten really good and good publicity, they won't even need to do that. I heard a rough estimate of 64 snares trying out. There is definitely talent enough that they'll be great. And for all those curious, Academy is trying rather hard to march a full 135 members this year.

Being a resident of the East Valley and living extremely close to Academy, it seems I have more faith in them than most. I know that Academy could kick it up and do extremely well this year. Also, I haven't seen anyone mention it so I'll let you guys know that Academy is going to finals this year so I'm assuming their tour will be longer. I'm not sure if they'd take 1st but they will be good competition.
