This has been an ultimate dream of mine-- for a band of their caliber and size, to perform this on the street for competition.

I am extremely excited.

I think Arcadia will do great, however Loara set the standard with their 240 members in 1972 playing this march. Even TX Band Directors, who worship this march felt that the Loara performance was the Gold Standard.
