In just the past few years, many of the Massachusetts USBands heavy hitters started doing more NESBA shows, and Virginia, Maryland and New Jersey each started up new marching band circuits that drew numerous bands away from USBands. You can assert that claims against USBands are all bunk, but something sure as heck is happening. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Oh there have certainly been claims made against USBands that have been true over the years. This one, however, is not. And I've been very critical of that part of the YEA organization for a long time. Truth is, there are very good people working there right now who are thrilled to not have to deal with GH anymore or worry that the funds they generate were helping to keep the Cadets in operation. From what I've heard, they are working very diligently and doing the right things for the bands, directors, and adjudicators they serve. As far as something sure as heck is happening, let's wait a week and see. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TOB also gained a lot of bands, but a lot of it was after Hopghazi broke 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
