Bit surprised this hadn't been cancelled yet with so few bands. MFA must have a few more bands we don't know about signed up for now to keep it going ATM.

Confirmed: Hamilton HS, AZ (Band Calendar) Arbor View HS, NV (Band Calendar)
Adding a list of bands below who attended either AZMBA or ABODA championships in 2021 who have not yet been mentioned here and are not yet confirmed for local shows. These bands are either 1) not listed on AZMBA show lineups (already posted), or 2) do not have calendars confirming they've enrolled in ABODA shows (lineups not yet posted). These are only bands from the bigger divisions who have not yet been mentioned here, and beyond these there are roughly 70 bands in the smallest two divisions of ABODA. Wouldn't be surprised to see a few attend from either pool or from surrounding areas like Vegas.
Peoria HS Thunderbird HS Sabino HS Mesa HS Barry Goldwater HS Prescott HS Chaparral HS

A — Pinecrest Academy of Nevada Cadence, NV AA — Clovis H.S., NM AAA — Fossil Ridge H.S., CO AAAA — Foothill H.S., NV Clovis should be AAA based on CompSuite I don’t think CompSuite has been updated to reflect the current season just yet. They very well could still be AAA, but they were barely so before the classification changes.

Love ur list. This is mine: 1. Fossil Ridge H.S., CO 2. Clovis H.S., NM 3. Desert Vista H.S., AZ 4. Loveland H.S., CO 5. Corona Del Sol H.S., AZ 6. Foothill H.S., NV 7. Arbor View H.S., NV 8. Mountain Ridge H.S., AZ I am also clearly in the dark about the potential decline of some programs that did very well last year? Foothill HS lost to Arbor View HS with in Nevada Marching Band Circuit Championships but I could never find scores. Foothill show was just not to the same level as before but I hope they get better. IDK about Loveland HS and Fossil Ridge position as it's early, but if we had this Regional in 2021: Loveland 1st and Desert Vista 2nd, and I heard Clovis is doing amazing stuff this year so I could see them winning thro 4th as well, but they weren't to same degree as pervious years in 2021 as they almost lost Organ Mountain in States.

I think Loveland beat Fossil Ridge last year at the 4A show for the state circuit here in CO. So that would probably give Loveland an edge. I believe Legacy (going to GN) is in the 5A category… not 100% sure.

But Loveland did beat both of them last fall, including same-day same-panel at CBA Finals (Loveland 87.95, Legacy 87.70, Fossil Ridge 87.00)

Allohak is correct, But CBA States is in late October however, early season Loveland HS was losing Air Academy HS, Legacy HS, and Fossil Ridge HS. Fossil Ridge was dominating in September and up to mid-October where Fossil Ridge was beat Loveland HS by 2.1 points and Legacy HS by 1.5 points and then again with 2.3 point (Loveland HS) in two October competition, and small margin of 0.35 points in one September competition.

Loveland was also ahead of Fossil and AA in late September at the Legacy show (Legacy wasn't scored). No doubt these groups from Colorado are on the rise, definitely under-seen. Looking forward to how things shake out between them this fall with several hitting bigger stages than we're used to. (Insert my annual call for a Denver-area regional here)

(Insert my annual call for a Denver-area regional here) Loveland was ahead of Fossil only because Fossil Ridge got I think an 0.3 penalty. So let's just say they didn't get an penalty for whatever happen Fossil Ridge would have won.

So let's just say they didn't get an penalty for whatever happen Fossil Ridge would have won. It's on the recap, it counts FWIW Fossil had the same 0.4 penalty in prelims and finals that day, so not really something you can chalk up to "let's assume that didn't happen", it was consistent. Anywho, can't wait to see what this regional has to offer. Low key very solid likely top half of finals here

Saw Loveland and Fossil Ridge at the Legacy home show last night:
Loveland: Loveland was probably the biggest band I saw last night as they're probably approaching 180 members (a guess). But Ya'll, Loveland must have paid a lot of money for this show. They are doing a white rabbit Jefferson airplane show. It is honestly a really well-designed production that if performed well would do great at grand nationals. Sadly, the band just does not sound that good. They aren't that loud and the tone being produced just is not that appealing. Visual can be cleaned, but I feel that the band is just not at a level to really perform the show to do it justice.
One really cool moment is they have about 10 bass clarinets, and they have a feature that is probably 40 -50 seconds long. It's really effective.
Fossil Ridge: Pretty much the opposite of Loveland. They played their whole show but I could tell at the end that was the least clean part. They march well and play probably even better. Not quite as big as Loveland, maybe 120 members-ish. The show is a little boring imo it is a pretty cliche show about time.
I think this is probably Clovis' or Foothill's show to lose, but I can see Fossil Ridge in the top 5 somewhere.

Loveland's director asked that video be taken down, doesn't really like unfinished product out there for viewing - sorry for the deletes
