You can assert that claims against USBands are all bunk, but something sure as heck is happening. Again, consider the exogenous events currently happening and imagine who benefits by intentional indecision. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Old Corps Guy Posted August 2, 2020 Author Share Posted August 2, 2020 (edited) Let's try to keep on topic here. This is not a forum for Cadet bashing. There are more than enough forums for you to vent if that is your desire. We are discussing marching band season cancellations. I have refrained from my learned experience and disdane for USBands. As the O.P., I ask others do to the same. Edited August 3, 2020 by Old Corps Guy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Only about 15-20 Massachusetts bands in total have participated in USBands shows the past few years, according to my spreadsheet. Do you keep track of bands in all circuits? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
