BigBear, you ever heard of the Tri-State Music Festival? I grew up in Enid, OK, home of that festival. It's an annual gathering of High School marching bands, performing in a big parade. Been many years since I saw one, but they still have it. There's also all kinds of other musical competitions besides the parade, and a carnival, always a big deal to our little town on the plains. http://tristatemusicfestival.com/Tri...l/Welcome.html
