Midlands Regional Champions, 2nd Section - 2011
Congratulations to all the qualifiers, but shouldn't Fairfield(Buxton) who were 3rd in The Midlands and Test Valley who were 3rd in the West be on this list?
I'm looking forward to my first trip to Harrogate and to listening to all twenty(?) Bands. Seven of us will be renewing our rivalry from Butlins 2008 - so that's the first form guide. Are there any others?

Woops, sorry. My mistake, now corrected.Originally Posted by The view from the Chair
Thanks for pointing it out.
Midlands Regional Champions, 2nd Section - 2011
Jubilee Brass shouldn't be on the list as only 2 qualified from Stevenage
I did wonder about this as only 16 bands played, but following the results, 4br printed that 3 bands qualify so I added them. Since then, they have also put them on their list of bands qualifying. Hmmness.

Aye, I checked this yesterday and they were removed from the list.

They've announced the pieces!!! We've got a new piece called Alta Vista by Bruce Fraser, all about skyscrapers in America.

Cornet
Staines Brass
has anyone played the new test peice yet?
Am looking forward to seeing the piece and playing (with Maltby MWB) on the day. Best of luck to Dronfield CMW. Even though they're a different area officially they're also local to me.
Rob Hibberd
Bass Trombone
Yorkshire Imps
Can't wait for this contest next week. I'm not too sure whether I like the piece or not though.
It's a real killer on the lips for front row cornets isn't it?

Any comments that I make are my own views and not necessarily those of the band that I play for.
and the same to you and Maltby - interesting to note how many KSB players are playing for either Maltby or Dronfield - me thinks we ought to take up this contesting like. Oh we already have, 3 players at Maltby and 6 at Dronfield.
And ex-helper-outers - I played euph with you for a summer few years ago. Will be playing Eb with Rivington and Adlington this weekend. Hope to meet up for a pint with Francis/Rob/anyone else who was in Killamarsh in 2005!
Cheers
Chris

Congratulations to "local rivals" Rivi on a superb 3rd place plus best soloist, and also well done to Cheshire Constabulary (with my old mate Rachel on flugel!)
