Don't think I've ever seen a SoCal band play this march. I did see Atwater HS perform it 3 or 4 years ago up north though.

Anyone know what marches these bands will be playing?

Actually, they're playing Golden Jubilee by Sousa

It's a great march... not sure it's the best choice for a band with one flute and one piccolo in a block of 70~80.

Valhalla is playing "Bullets and Bayonets".

Temple City is playing The Purple Carnival, as they did today at La Palma

I think Class C will be interesting as well since two heavy hitting bands that have broken 92, Beckman and South El Monte, will be duking it out.

Yes, especially after this weekend's events at Otay Ranch and La Palma.
I feel like there is a lot of bands that are displaced in the lineup.

We at Golden Valley are very excited to be able to perform alongside such amazing groups! Obviously the street percussion scene is different here in northern CA, but in any event we're very happy to show what it is we do! Thank you again for allowing us to participate!
