The All Lubbock High School Marching Band

I have written before about the All Lubbock High School Marching Band appearing in the 2012 New Years Day Rose Bowl Parade. I watched the parade, to see the band and to scope out the other participants.  Not one was bad.  I will say that when the All Lubbock High School Marching Band was on TV, they received very good coverage.  The announcers did not appear to be knowledgeable about Texas: the announcer said they were from East Texas.  Also, they named the high schools, and I heard Monetery, Estacado and Coronado, but not Lubbock High, although they could have said that and I missed it.

The local television channel that announced the parade, KTLA, http://www.ktla.com/entertainment/roseparade/bandvoting/ktla-roseparade2012-bandpoll-voting,0,1245.poll posted video of the parade, including the bands.  They also sponsored a poll, and I voted.  It was interesting to me that the All Lubbock High School Marching Band received 43%, second only to the Siloam Springs High School, at 44%.  Go All Lubbock High School Marching Band!
