im glad you rate my old band hoover in 3rd section.. they are doing really well at the mo, wouldn't be surprised if they take it, top 4 anyway.

 

[Maestro]

Having watched City of Bristol over the last few years, don't be surprised to see them in the prizes in the 1st section. Also keep an eye out for Sandhurst silver in the 3rd section.

2nd. Crewe Co-op
3rd.Knottingley

Second section
1st Old Silkstone
2nd Lympstone
3rd Darley Dale

Third section

The above were based on a bit of studying form, supporting mates and guesswork.
Good luck to everyone going.

 

[JohnnyEuph]

i'd definetely put Hatfield Coalpower in the running for section 2. I'm helping them out on top Euph and things are going exremely smoothly in rehearsals, and the band manages to produce a very clean and warm sound... although i'm not too sure about Mr O' Connor's window cleaner impressions!

 

[iggmeister]

Having watched City of Bristol over the last few years, don't be surprised to see them in the prizes in the 1st section.

Quite a few ex-Sun Life players in the ranks so I understand.

3rd section: this is not the order but i think these bands will up there!

Lochgelly
Hebden Bridge
Diggle
Hoover Band
Carlton Brass
Stanley Newmarket Colliery
Boarshurst

No bias in that at all, rick? :wink: :lol:

 

[Naomi McFadyen]

hmm, hard one this...

so far I can only come up with winners...
1st section: Zone One Brass
2nd section: Lympstone
3rd section: St Dennis
4th section: Lockwood


It'll probably be a close contest all round... I'm glad I'm not an adjudicator for this contest...
Best of luck to all taking part... have a good one!

 

[Heather]

I would definately put Hoover Band up there in the 3rd section.
They're a good band with an excellent conductor in Chris Wormald.

 

[Di B]

Not a prediction as such as I don't know the bands going well enough. However, I do rate these bands.....

Section 1. Kibworth. Have been good and consistent for a loong time.
Section 2. Shirley. Hate to admit it, but they came 1st at the Area and (I think) it was 2nd at last years 2nd Section National Finals.
Section 4. Pheonix Brass. If they have put the work in I think they will show a class different to the usual 4th section band.

Just a few thoughts... not that I have many to spare!

 

[EbHorny]

I'm noticing nobodies putting us Scottish bands in the top 3.

Are we that bad? or, is it just that you don't know anything about us?

1) Bon-Accord Silver Band
2) The Rest!!

 

[Andy_Euph]

I see a few people have tipped Horden to win the 1st section, they should do ok as they have quite a few good players in the band, Andy Holmes on top cornet and Richie Wallace on top euph, but i don't know if they will win (i hope so though). North East bands never seem to do anything at the nationals, especially in the 2nd and 1st sections :evil:

 

[SammyT]

Well here's my predictions although some are complete guesswork

4th Sect.
1. Lockwood
2. Long Eaton
3. Phoenix

Thanks for the prediction (2nd in 4th!!)- we are really working hard and are hoping for one of the top spots!

 

[satchmo shaz]

I agree with andy euph, lockwood and phoenix and hopefully my band LONG EATON will all be up there in the frame!! :wink:

 

[rickcowens]

3rd section: this is not the order but i think these bands will up there!

Lochgelly
Hebden Bridge
Diggle
Hoover Band
Carlton Brass
Stanley Newmarket Colliery
Boarshurst

No bias in that at all, rick? :wink: :lol:

no bias but 3 ov them are ya top ones!!! diggle is one ov em!

 

[floral_dance]

Don't underestimate Newmilns and Galston to take one of the prizes in the second section as they are playing really well just now.

 

[faerie]

no bias but 3 ov them are ya top ones!!! diggle is one ov em!

OK, so are the clocks out? I'm pretty sure that at 7:36pm tonight you were no where near your computer! *All confuzzled now*

 

[iancwilx]

I'd definitely put money on Knottingley in the 1st Section and Stanley Newmarket in the 3rd.
