Any word on confirmed bands? What is the official line up and divisions. I'm quite sure all bands will not be in the same divisions. Im anxious to see East St. John and Tara. Both schools I have not often seen them in BOTBs. My first time catching them. Lutcher and Donaldsonville will have my attention as well. I have seen both bands improve with each BOTB I see them in. I heard that Donaldsonville has a new director and the Lutcher's BD is the BD at LLI. I think out of the entire line, either Baker or Mckinley will take home the all supreme of the night. Those kids are some steppers! I have heard some things about SU Lab for a few years. It will be interesting to see them in competition also.I KNOW Scotlandville and Istrouma are going to bring dat heat also! How much are tickets?
HALF of those bands will attend. Some I cant see attending. It will still be a good one. Even if 4 bands come or 6..any combination will be good enought. Mr. Lott is at Lutcher and part lli. Mr. Everson Marton was the head bd in 2012. Mr. Lott was head lli director from about april 2011 to about july 2011. SU lab band was ok last time i seen them. I think it was in new orleans for mardi gras 2012. Is Mr. Charles still there? He is a good director. Donaldsonville is...Baker, Mckinley and Scotlandville has been for the past 4-5 yrs THE TOP DRILLING BANDS in Louisiana Including St. Aug and St. Martinville of course. Bandfan06 said:

Oh ok! Thanks Mr. Todd for the confirmation. Mr. Marton is at Alcorn State from what I heard. I also head with his departure from St. Martinville along went the caliber of band over at SMHS. I wonder if that holds any truth. I guess we will find out when or if we see them in some of the battle of bands this year. If they don't show up to some, I guess that will answer my question lol I think Mr. Charles is still there. I thought SU Lab was mostly little youngsters. Last I seen them those lil ones were stepping and blowing! It will be interesting to see the laboratory school of SU in competition. Lutcher seems like the band on the rise. Each time I see them I see strong growing talent. Donaldson Ville also. Since there are three division I'm sure it will be a small, medium, and large thing.
My predictions would be
Baker
Scotlandville
McKinly
Lutcher
Donaldsonville
Washington Marion
Southern Lab/Brusly
IF IT IS NOT A RAINED OUT EVENT!!!

If pulled off right, this BOTB could be a huge success.
Donaldsonville won small band.
Lutcher won medium band
Baker won big band
Lutcher won overall, pretty good battle.
