Honda Battle of the Bands 2011

Just Monday, November 8^th, the Red sea of Sound received notice that we have made it to the 2011 Honda Battle of the Bands. The energy throughout the day was electric. It is truly an honor to be apart of this year’s line-up. Along with our band, seven other bands will also be in attendance: Virginia State’s Trojan Explosion, Jackson State’s Sonic Boom, Albany State’s Marching Rams, Bethune-Cookman’s Marching Wildcats, Clark Atlanta’s Mighty Marching Panthers, South Carolina’s Marching 101, and Tennessee State’s Aristocrat of Bands. The event is set to take place January 29, 2011 in Atlanta, Georgia. Also, this will give Winston Salem State national recognition amongst other HBCU bands, directors, etc. This shows how our program is growing and it will continue to do so under the direction of Dr. Magruder. It is now time to put in the many hours of hard work regardless of how cold it may be during practice. We have reached the mountaintop and must continue to strive for the best. In addition, I would like to congratulate my fellow Rams for a job well done and may this experience be one that we’ll all remember.
