WEST LAWN – Just three L-L League football teams still dancing in the postseason, so I’m running out of bands to film. Friday night, at blustery Wilson High School, I saw Penn Manor’s marching band perform for the first time this season. Did see the Comets play way back in Week 2, but it...

MANHEIM – First impression of Garden Spot’s marching band: Wow, this is a really big band; perhaps the biggest band I’ve seen at any football game this fall. Impressive show by Garden Spot’s band on Friday night, at halftime of the Spartans’ game against Manheim Central. They played three popular, rock-pop tuned (some Black...

LAMPETER – Been hearing a lot about Elizabethtown’s margin band this season. And I finally got to see them on Friday night during the Bears’ football game at Lampeter-Strasburg. Don’t really want to ‘rank’ the band performances I’ve seen this season, but I must say: I enjoyed the heck out of Elizabethtown’s pre-game show....

NEFFSVILLE – Saw Manheim Township’s marching band earlier this season, but it did not march because of wet conditions and lack of practice because of that really rainy week back in September.

MANHEIM – Had my first look at Lampeter-Strasburg’s marching band on Friday night. Did see the Pioneers play football earlier this season, but it was a Saturday night, and the field was still a tad wet from the flooding. So Lampeter-Strasburg’s marching band did not perform that evening. It did perform on Friday at...

MANHEIM – OK, Take Two for Manheim Central’s marching band. Last Friday I had the Flip Cam at Solanco for the Barons’ halftime show. But an overzealous Golden Mules’ fan (or two) were a tad on the loud side, and despite me looking over a couple of times, they weren’t piping down anytime soon....

QUARRYVILLE – At Solanco on Friday night for Golden Mules vs. Manheim Central football, and had the Flip Cam rolling when Solanco’s marching band took the field for its pre-game show.
