november rain Posted February 24, 2011 Posted February 24, 2011 (edited) Hello guys. I've heard that there will be six (!!) bands preparing for the Grand Nationals, including CTJ. Not only that, one other will be making their Grand Nats debut (whoohoo!). I also heard that LD Bell will not be coming (WHat1!?). Anymore about these rumors?

I remember hearing from a Hebron student that they'll be going next year...not really confirmed though. (Edit: Student said that he hopes they'll go. No actual word on whether they will or not; Either way, I wouldn't be surprised if they give it a go.) As for L.D. Bell, they've gone six years in a row. I was thinking that Bell would eventually take a year off since it would get strenuous to pay for GN every year...though I have to say, I'll miss seeing them there Even without Bell, it looks like Texas will be well represented next year!

dmbalash Posted February 25, 2011 Posted February 25, 2011 Woops...2 bands other than CT Johnson from Texas will be making their debut from what I've heard. Quote
mellopwn1 Posted February 27, 2011 Posted February 27, 2011 (edited) Who I think/want/have heard rumors of returning: Hebron/Berkner The Woodlands Bowie CTJ Marcus Spring Hebron OR Berkner, it's really a toss-up between the two. Maybe both? that would be so cool! Both have potential to do great. The Woodlands: Every other year since 1998 (Minus 2000, and consecutive 2006-2007). I think they are pretty much a sure shot for entering in 2011. Think we can save them a spot in finals, too. Bowie: 2006 & 2009, so maybe a three year rotation? I haven't really heard anything about them going, but I just really want them to. It was amazing their improvement from 2009-2010!!! Please...? haha. CTJ: Confirmed that they are going. I'm excited for them Marcus: Why would they NOT go?!?! It's a non-state year so they would basically be wasting their talent by ending the season at San Antonio. I also agree with all the buzz on the MFA Forums that they have potential to take it all if they do in fact make the trip. Spring: Don't think anybody could have really guessed this....but it sure is exciting. Here's a post from Balash on the MFA Forums Quote one, not for some time. Hint: [they are a] pretty decent playing band, middle of the road visually, though. Does that not sound like Spring to you?!?! After a 9 year break, could they really be returning? It sure seems that way to me. Unless you guys have any other groups that could fit that description. Edited February 27, 2011 by mellopwn1 Quote
clarineticorn Posted April 6, 2011 Posted April 6, 2011 Yes, CTJ is going. Yes, we're going by bus. Ugh. I hate bus rides. Too much sitting stillish for too long. Quote
Clarinet_Lover41 Posted May 15, 2011 Posted May 15, 2011 Hebron is on the Grand Nats list so I think they are going. Quote
whitewing09 Posted May 23, 2011 Posted May 23, 2011 I'm so stoked that CTJ is going. I have been a fan of their shows since the beginning and it's nice to see them start to own. I think they'll be/are the new Reagan. Quote
omnjj Posted June 9, 2011 Posted June 9, 2011 Next year's grand nats is gonna be sooo amazing!! can't wait to kick some booty:) Quote

Lots nicer. Not that Reagan kids are mean, but CTJ kids are nicer. And I promise...you'll love our show this year. It's fantastic. Quote
