2017 Regional Test Piece Rumours
- Thread starter smaca
- Start date
That would certainly indicate the Darkwood rumour is accurate.I find it interesting that when checked last Friday Darkwood - Dan Price was £25 and today it is listed at £60. Read into that what you will - the only rumours I hear are the ones posted here
Although St Andrews Variations is still listed at £25..... so perhaps not a precise barometer!
Or not a precise rumour..........

I think March will be a free for all, everyone stands a chance of qualifying, because whilst Pageantry is a good piece, I don't think it will challenge the championship section bands!!

I'm really looking forward to Pageantry - haven't ever contested on it before.
And I think it is going to challenge bands, just like Festival Music, Salute to Youth and Rienzi did after people complained they were too old/easy/boring....

So in Yorkshire for example it's really going to allow the adjudicator to separate Dyke from B&R from Grimethorpe from CMFC from Rothwell etc......?
The cat is truly amongst the pigeons with this one (assuming that the adjudicator can stay awake long enough zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz)

Sure it wasnt the "score" only which is priced at £25 on Just Music

Didn't really want to go next year and St. Andrews Variations for the 4th section has made my choice easy, what a truly awful slap in the face for that section.
No - I made sure of that and it wasn't Just Music site
Agreed!
