- This is a POWERFUL performance by the LD Bell Blue Raider Band! It's a tribute to our armed forces called "HONOR, We Will Remember". I love this show and everything it represents, and I'm so proud of the students and band directors who poured their heart and energy into this day after day, week after week. I shot this from the stands with my older SD digital camera on two different nights and put the two clips together. Hope you enjoy it as much as I have!

It's almost 13 years ago and it still moves me to tears. My son, a sophomore, was the captain of the monument team. I am so proud of all the kids who performed with such skill. I'll forever be a very proud band parent.
Congrats. My son, a sophomore, was on the field at grand nats finals with you that year with our band from Oklahoma.
Great tribute as a Veteran of a War ( Persian Gulf) and a veteran and active Member in the Drum Corps World ( Bayonne Bridgemen, and Bridgemen Alumni Corps)(Baritone) I was thrilled and Honored to have seen this.. Thanks...
Saw this at Grand Nats. It's the first show that ever made me cry. Absolute beauty.
Niagara Falls for me, so many in the audience were wiping tears. Wonderful show, one of the most moving shows I ever saw.
im from killeen/ft hood texas the biggest military base in the world. I was in the killeen high band in 1999. Our band was alittle bigger and we did military marches and we traveled all over with our performance. This band right here was the best i ever seen, it was emotional and very entertaining. Good job damn good job.
Even after 5 years, this is the one show I will never forget and never not be proud to have been a part of. A great way to end any senior year of marching band.
God damn. You don't even know how much I want my high school band to be like you guys.
Still the most impactful and tastefully done patriotic show I’ve ever seen.
The maturity of this band is beyond me.
Bravo to Texas for producing such quality musicians!
I was a member of the L D Bell Band back in the mid 80's. I can proudly say that more than 30 years later this is an organization that expects excellence, discipline, and teamwork. To all members past and present thank you for standing for that. The lessons we learned on the marching field do matter later in life even if you no longer play an instrument. This is an organization that we can all say we were apart of and be proud that we helped contribute to it's continued excellence. That was an awe inspiring performance.
This show is so special to my family and I. My cousin Miranda Banda is in the color guard with bell and this was her very first show.This show is special because The Banda family and I buried my uncle this past thanksgiving and he was buried at the National Cemetery as a veteren. This pulls at my heart strings when they bring out the crosses and what it represents. I am so happy that my uncle Pablo Banda got to see this before we laid him to rest! Sometimes you never know who you will touch.
2020. I shared this again. My daughter Dakota Birdd was a Raiderette. I shared this again, this somber Memorial Day.
i saw this performance at the alamo dome in person i was sitting in the front row i was part of Keller Central High School Marching Band and i thought they were amazing. They deserved their success. and i read some comments about this video saying that we cant even talk to other bands i talked to some other bands and made a few friends too. if anyone from LD Bell reads this i will say one last thing it was an honor to see your performance in person you worked hard and it paid off good for you
As someone who is currently in the LD Bell Band, this is beautiful.
I don't believe it
@@skrigliets3601nah what
Salvation is Created!!!!!!!!!! Awesome show!!!!!
I cried at the end of this show. I admit it. But I just don't understand how 15 people can dislike this, this was amazing!
Even after 8 years now I consider one of the most powerfull BOA shows I have ever witnessed and watch it ever Memorial Day
Im apart of the jb alexander band and after we did our state performance while heading to the full band pictures I saw there performance right before my eyes really amazing and dramatic, It really made me realize how special our troops are GOD BLESS AMERICA
I Can not fathom the amount of work it took band directors and others to put this together. I thought of the Arlington National Cemetary immediately when they showed the crosses of white, but to go beyond that and honor the tomb of the unknown soldier at the tail end known to them or not was the moment that brought tears to my eyes.
I am moved to tears every single time I watch this.
me too
This was not an easy show to watch without being brought to tears by the end. Thanks LD Bell HS for an amazing and thoughtful show. This one went far beyond just performing well. Would have loved to have seen this one live!
I went to Hebron I watched this show in the stands and it brought me to tears
Saw them at BOA San Antonio and they put me and nearly half of my band in tears.
We walked past them performing this show at area pre-lims when I was a freshman. It made me cry because I knew my band would never be that good.
This brings me to tears every time I see it. Had the privledge to see this show in person performed at Grand National championships a few years back. Not ashamed to say I was very teary eyed. God bless all of our Veterans.
I am a band director and a proud supporter of our US Armed forces! I think I am going to show this video to my students this year for Veterans Day/Armistice Day.
I remember the UIL Area competition in 2010; our high school marching band performed immediately after LD Bell. A very tough act to follow!
Great job! ❤️💙🇺🇸
This was one POWERFULL show!!!!....Do the kids who marched this realize just how powerful and dynamic this show was/is and how it brings people to tears??? By far my fav at last years Grand Nats. I normally do not comment on BOA judging, but this one the BOA judges missed in placing IMHO...
Ridge View High School in South Carolina purchased the props and guards uniforms from LD Bell and is doing this show this year!
I had the opportunity to watch this show live 3 times at BOA Grand Nats in 2010. I cried every time at the end and still do. This show is a MUST watch for EVERY Memorial Day.
Thank you very much, LaDonna Aiken. I just stumbled upon this, and enjoyed it immensely. Memorial Day, 2020 is tomorrow, and this is a very moving reminder of what that day is all about. That L. D. Bell band is very near and dear to me and so many others who have had the honor and privilege to be a part of it and its positive impact on people over many decades through such outstanding and unwaivering standards of hard work, performance excellence - and "hustle!" Bravo, L. D. Bell! Bravo!
powerful performance an understatement . how about spellbinding. awesome. thank all of you great performers. well done
they are so good. My school is only 4A but we kinda look up to them.
it was my first year in marching band when my small high school band came to see them at grand nats. i was totally aww struck by them and all the other bands. i never wanted it to end. i wanted to stay in that moment forever. after seeing them i finally understood what our instructor meant by "a good performance will capture the crowd, and leave it wanting more."
Its been since 2010 since i saw this show! So i was in the tunnel of the Alamodome at State, i believe either before or after and i was just both intimidated and in awe!
Such a moving show and the production in this was incredible.......Simple yet very effective with the color guard doing a costume change from the uniforms to white and the tombstones.
Pure Theater and not truly over the top! Wish i could go back to watch this myself.......To those who were in this band at the time. Thank you for both scaring the hell out of me and also giving me a show to remember.
From an Alexander Band Alumni!
My favorite part has to be when they played "the Pacific" theme song. I'm in my high schools marching band and really hope we do a show like this one year. I loved this show. Awesome job and God bless all the men and women who serve in the US Military. Thank you for all that you do, whether you're a veteran, current service member, or will someday be in the US Armed Forces. We will always be in your debt. Again guys, awesome job on this show. It literally brought a tear to my eye.
What an awesome show! This is and will be on of my all time faves for a very long time.....They were greatly missed at BOA Grand Nats this year....
I just love LD Bell because of their expressive love for what they play...and I play in DeSoto Marching Band.
LD Bell going traditional on us, very unexpected, great show. I love Salvation is Created.
The brass sound during the impact of the closer.....oh my god. So proud to be an alumni
This is the most beautiful marching show i have ever heard or seen. It was an honor to compete with yall last year and i cant wait to see yall again next Saturday at BOA regional!! Best of luck from the Spirit of Saginaw Band.
It's a special show to me as well, as a military veteran... and grateful for Pablo's service!
I clicked on this as I was browsing through different band videos and I was shocked to find this; the band I'm a member of bought the crosses off of this band! (it was a "huh, small world" moment.)
There in Bedford Texas, thats where I graduated from and the band I marched in for 3 years and teched @ for 2.
This year Tarpon Springs HS there show "Paranormal" was one of the best show that I have ever seen. They should of won at Grand Nationals this year.
Thanks for posting such a great video!
Wow... awesome show folks! Nicely done.
"America" brought tears to my eyes. Even though I'm not a born American, I love this country. The Greatness of this country...
I am in a marching band in Las Vegas, NV. MY high school has one of the best marching bands in the city. After wastching L.D. Bell for the first time, I cried and I learned that NV marching bands suck. This is an absolutely amazing marching band and they deserve a lot of credit for putting that moving of a show together. I can't decide what was better, the music or the visuals. Absolutely amazng job! :)
precision + unrivaled excellence= LD Bell!!
@trumpetrox94
L.D. Bell's show was called "Honor." It was a tribute to those who have died for our country and those who are fighting and have fought for us, it's a huge recognition.
My dad who fought in the Vietnam war cried after this performance and was honored that they made this show. He thought it was amazing and so did the rest of my family-- and most judges at their competitions.
Still moving after over 5 years.
amazing guard! amazing brass:) wow!!!! always a fav every year!
One of the most moving marching shows ever. Patriotic shows are typically extremely corny (sign of Rosie the Riveter..etc. ) Leave it LD Bell to do it right! Thank you LD Bell.
Broken arrow 2018 is another great patriotic show
@@brycentuell7109 its gives off halftime show vibes, more so than a competitive marching band show.
@@bizkitjpeg why do u think that? No disrespect just would like to hear your opinion
@@bizkitjpeg I was in that show and I always like to hear what other people think
loved this show, being in it was an amazing experience and made me see things differently, thanks to all the band members and staff that made that experience everything I would have ever hoped for
proud to be a part of this. :) we all did amazingg bell!
Thank you L.D. Bell!! I can appreciate this show as both a band director and a veteran! I absolutely love it! Thank you for the tribute!!!
Adagio for strings is one hell of an intro!
This is a most touching show ever. :') great job guys! Yall deserve it with the hard work yall put in.
You said your Uncle was laid to rest at the National Cemetery. People often say National Cemetary but it is the one in the area of which we live or there is the one I know & love in Arlington VA. My brother has his Memorial stone there. I have visited that stone on each birthday, holiday and the day we lost him, 8/5/82. He is right on Porter Road which is a very short jaunt to the Tomb of the Unknown Soldiers. I to tear up when they bring out the crosses. My your Uncle rest in peace!
Great show, the opening was pure emotion, loved it
I was actually here for this performance as an opposing band! It moved me then, but even more now that my boyfriend is in the army :) thank you for this :)
I'm so proud to be in this band now. nice vid by the way.
Thank you, LaDonna Aiken, for your careful and excellent filming and editing. This show is worthy of the work it took to preserve it and make it available to the world.
Thank you Amos!
I can't imagine how loud my school would be if we had that many brass players
wow. my drum major told me to watch this show. It is absolutely amazing. My favorite part is that they had star of david stones because im Jewish. It was a very well put together show.
It will be a amazing competition, not only in 5A but in 3A too. Its going to be a really tough competition at the Area round. I definitely want to make the most of my senior year.
10:45 goosebumps every time. I've always loved that piece by Zimmer
jck1794 what piece was that?
I was at Grand Nats watching this show...It was so amazing and brought tears to my eyes. Thanks for the upload! it's great going back and watching one of my favorite moments at BOA
OMG, my band it doing this show this year. I'm so excited!
I want to see them at state this coming season.
We are performing this show this year at my school. But we made a few changes.
Their tubas sound absolutely amazing! sounds like it could be a DCI tuba section!
very nice --- talented and dedicated people -- a great tribute!
amazing!
What a powerful show. Loved the "Pacem" movement, as it is one of my favorite pieces of music for concert band.
i got chills when they saluted.
This is great editing. The emotion that is put out during this/these performances is simply amazing. Thank you so much for sharing this with us all. Congratulations to Bell on your performance at GN finals. Scores aside, one of the most emotional and poignant performances I have ever seen.
I love this show! It is done so tastefully and professionally! My favorite part is the mirroring in the guard in the ballad. Thank you for persuing exellence LD Bell!
so proud to be one of the color guard members that was a part of this.
Amazing!!
Their playing is beautiful. I love the long phrases and there are no big distracting props just marchers and color guard
what was the closing song at the end please? salvation is created sounded AWESOME!!!!
wooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooow... i had chill bumps o.O
i cried. i loved it.
i enjoyed this show as a member of the armed forces, but as a musician, i wish they would do another show like "The Remaining."
This brought tears to my eyes
10:32 - 10:45 was heart breaking. This is why being in step is so important at all times. You never know who is looking at you. When you are the only one out of step, you stick out like a toaster in a tree. No Disrespect to this band, but that's what takes a band from being ok, to winning competitions!! Everyone being in step!! Judges can pick that out from a mile away. However this show as a whole is still one of my favorite shows that i have ever seen. I was lucky enough to witness this in San Antonio at the State Marching Contest in 2010 and thinking, wow, how do those kids put on a performance like that with so much emotion and difficulty!! Great Job to the LD Bell Marching Band!! This is what being in band is all about, working together to accomplish a goal and moving peoples hearts while doing it. I can't express enough how great this is!! This will always be one of my favorites!!
Absolutely beautiful
That was truly amazing I loved it my band is a 2a so we're not that big but I would love to do this show theme our theme this year is the Rise and Fall of Rome
TAPS was performed beautifully. Great show. Perfect.
im soooo proud to be going to the l.d. bell band!:D
Yea, It is a very powerful show. If only I could see them in person. Is Hebron in the flower mound area?
So the first time i watched yall on youtube i said to myself "Wow This Band Is Amazing!!!" I was able to go to State this year and got to hear this band live!! One of the first impacts was so loud and out there i got chills!!! The one at 3:50 was so touching!!! Amazing band!! I think yall deserved State Champs over Marcus!!!! But oh well everyone knows this band is still the best in texas!!
you guy did great!! best texas show this year!! :D just wondering why you added the flute solo and more music at 11:00-11:24 and took out the trumpet part?
It's in the same school district as Marcus high School and Flower Mound High School....they made finals at state the past 2 competitions
@Yellowcardfan1 As a matter of fact, I found the music on Itunes, by Hans Zimmer and others. This particular piece is called "Honor" and is written specifically for the pacific series.
@enlargedhen wtg, you are only talking about one of the best High School bands in the US, but thank you for your insight, evidently you are blind to real music, My son graduated from Bell in 2010
@mistertuba13 I know you probably know this but DCI doesn't have a tuba section, they have a contra section and I agree the tubas here are quite impressive and a lot bigger than our tuba section. We had like 5 tubas last year
The name of the clarinet solo is Largo from the new world symphony
To elaborate, I remember hearing problems in the opener, and then completely forgetting them. Congrats on your placement at Grand Nats.
La Grulla Highschool, its a new school thats only been around for 2 years and entering its 3rd year. We did pretty well for a new school these last two years. What school did you go to?
