| Anyone that has viewed this website for years knows there are few lower key on hype than me. And with no disrespect to the baseball team (who's regional game I was missing) or any previous Collinsville High School Band ... I don't think I have ever heard a more impressive Collinsville Band Concert and I was glad I wasn't somewhere else. Overall they were excellent, but I was simply stunned at the high quality on a few of the numbers. And for a band that didn't even know who their directors would be just under a year ago, it is extra spectatular. Congratulations to the band members and their directors. Well Done! -- Ted Wright -- May 5, 2016 -- 8:50pm |
