My sister and I both went to Dobyns-Bennett and were in the band program. The size of the band has nothing to do with the quality of performance and sound of this great band. The music is extremely hard as is the marching. I went to london with the band as we were invited to attend the millenium day parade. I also went the peach bowl, orange bowl, and sugar bowl. Every one of the bands afore mentioned trys extremely hard. But it is my opinion that D-B is just the better band in Tennessee. Also to help with the size of D-B's band they split up the band into two. One to play for the crowds at the football games. And one for the competitions. Imagine how hard it is for the students that march both.

If you guys were paying attention to the game and not "looking up there" at the band, you guys might start making the playoffs

 

Interesting comments from a poster named after a school with one of the best bands in the Chattanooga area. In fact, seems like the Cleveland band usually wins more contests than the Cleveland football team each year....

I've got to agree that the Dobyns-Bennett Band program is in a class of it's own. It's amazing what that program is able to accomplish.

The best band is no band.

 

Thats crap. The band gets the fans and team pumped up. Last year our football team had a crappy season but our band rocked and alot of ppl said that the only reason that they came to the football games was because of our band. This year we got a new director and our football team wasn't much better and ticket sales declined.

    • Who’s going to lead the pirates offense this year?
    • Pickett is good, may have a Mr. Football like season if he’s used correctly. One of the best teams Marion has fielded in a while. I think they go 12-1 and loose to ER.  ER has better players at almost every position. If they play discipline this year, they win soundly. If they don’t though…Marion could sneak away with it.
    • I’m betting the house on the Indians. Pickett and Co will be the only team to challenge the Indians in the East. Huntingdon can in the West. I think Brooks goes 15-0 and has the first perfect season and state championship in ER history.
    • Sounds like a great opportunity has opened up for the football team.  With the head coach of the diamond rebels making it official and quitting this week, there should be some room for the gridiron guys to benefit. I assume the administration won’t continue paying six figures to two former coach that quit to continue teaching drivers Ed. Thats pretty good money that could be redirected toward the football program. Also, with the more recent policies of pushing kids to only play one sport, abolishing the baseball program altogether would help on Friday nights in the fall. There is some decent speed on that baseball team that should’ve been playing on Fridays IMO. I’m not sure if anybody would really miss that baseball program anyway with it being across town from the school. The liability of letting players actually use the facilities could also be mitigated with closing the program. That liability seems to be a really big issue for 825. Anyway, it seems like a great opportunity is available.
    • Yeah, I read about their spring blue/gray scrimmage after I typed that.   Sounds like a real mess over there.  I just hate that for 'em.  Haw
