"The Legend Continues…"

The Stampede Band killed on the first day of the World Association of Marching Show Bands (WAMSB).  There was excellent competition - particularly from a High School band from Taiwan - but the Calgary Stampede Band won by about five points.  Their score was 93.3, which merited "Gold with Honours".

We in the stands aren't sure about the scoring.  There were about five golds that went out, along with one gold and one silver.  The finals are on Tuesday July 10 at 6pm at the Stampede grounds.  Perhaps the scores just indicate who goes forward and who doesn't?

The Round Up Band plays today - first up at 10 am.  I'll post that show as soon as I can.
