This was filmed 9 years ago. Today this band is over 900 strong.
There is life outside football. But on Friday night in Texas with the game, the band, the drill teams, and the cheerleaders it’s hard to think of anything else. What an experience!
For sure, for sure....
That's band is bigger than my old high school entire student body! Well done, Allen School District and it's Music Department!
Greetings from Ireland. I guess it's true, they do do things bigger in Texas. What a great bunch of kid's.
I needed this positive of American life with all that's going on in the country. We need to fight to keep this!🇺🇸
honestly as a frisco kid, i would love to go to this school. i understand that passing periods may be chaotic, competition is serious, but this would make such an amazing high school life to live
Dude in every competition they place lower that than some 6A bands that march 120 people. Their program sucks and their high school directors are not the best to say the least. No good director wants to work there because It’s nearly impossible to teach this many kids right.
@@lorenzodemedici6332 Thanks for the input Debbie Downer
@@jgriffin7 It’s not input, it’s why Allen isn’t good. You’d be much better off going to Marcus, Hebron, or places like that, with historic band programs and great directors.
They came to play us in the playoffs at San angelo stadium few years back. And we we amazed at the size of the band I believe at that time it was 800 students. Our band at the time was around 300 .. big difference.
You left out the part about the monsoon. Got to include the monsoon!
Great program and community. I direct a band in Houston and its a struggle to simply get instruments that work
my graduation class was 600 we had a 56 member band which included 10th/11th and 12th grade
My band was 75… gosh darn😂😂
Years ago, I went to the Texas UIL state marching competition and I believe it was Abilene Cooper High School band that took several minutes to enter the field in a single file line. That band was HUGE!
Nine years later, the band director is the assistant band director at one of Allen's middle schools.
This is a very old story, we are at 829 now and this guy stepped down like 5 years ago.
829. Lol. That's so large. Musically that's just a nightmare from every angle possible. Must be fun tho! 🎵
@@sodanomusic very hard to coordinate lol
@@tacoonblitz5686 I bet it is, how many are on staff there??😅 would seem like a headache to work with that number haha
@@blazaking2176 I am no longer a member, but as of the 2020-2021 marching season.
10- Band directors
3- Color guard staff
Over 50 volunteers in road crew
@@blazaking2176 I was in percussion, but the band director would usually get pissed over disrespect. The least mature group was the tubas tbh. But it is understandable that band directors get mad. Takes about 3 months to get the show together.
Fantastic!
650 Strong, goodness! people should pay just to watch their performances.
Now that is truly impressive! a 675=member high school band. New York, eat your heart out!
I'm not sure why this was uploaded now but that director stepped down in 2008. We had 811 members last year
Our band here Valdosta, GA The Georgia Bridgemen probably the largest band in our area almost 500 strong. Check them out on UA-cam.
Erm...Im pretty sure this is really old cause we have a diffrent band director and 817 in the band atleast last year
gotta be one hard band to beat in composition
That's A LOT OF BRASS AND SPIT!!!
Heh-heh....
I miss marching band so much. but with a marching band this big how can they do any formations or anything besides marching back and forth and diagonally
The person you say can't be in the band could be an Al Hirt or a Bill Clinton.
Unnecessary
