It'll be interesting to see where Plainfield and New Pal end up in relation to GFC, but I have no doubt GFC is going run away with B.
Having a clearer picture of the general Class A bubble after this competition would be so awesome. While Castle might be the clearer pick behind Fishers/Avon, I'm interested to see how far ahead Carroll is above the remaining Class A bands and how close to Castle Carroll can get. I'm predicting another bunched-up scores between LT/Westfield/Noblesville/FC.

It was a beautiful night in central IN for marching band. Temperatures were perfect. Fishers does a great job hosting this invitational.
Noblesville - Impressed with how well they have done since moving from the track show circuit to field shows. The product this year is more evolved and mature.
Carroll - Have not followed this program much in the past. They definitely have everyone's attention this year. Well done!
Castle - Beautiful. A joy to listen to musically and watch visually. Thank you!
Avon - ummm... what can be said? They keep coming at you and coming at you... To me, this is the most ambitious / technically demanding (musically and physically) show they have ever put on the field. Will definitely be a force to be reckoned with at ISSMA State and BOA GN.
