SYFband competition cancelled?!

ah san SG

read in new paper, that the competition is cancelled but the central judging remans... Crying or Very sad

so i suppose its the same for both jcs and sec sch? Question

no best jc /sec band for this yr? Rolling Eyes

sidetrack a bit ...

so would u all prefer the old system of only having central judging ie only gold,silver ...

or with the new system...added in 1997 , Very Happy BESt band competition added

IMHO would prefer the old system...is it really that impt to be the best?

...the enjoyment and cameradie teamwork experienced in preparation and competition should be the more impt?

I think that there is no such thing as a good band or a better band, much less a best band. THe way one band plays a tales of the sea is very much different from the way andother band plays tales of the sea. It's hard for the judges to award the best band award.
There's no such thing as a best band.

ah san SG

yup, share the same opinion too, its so hard and subjective to judge the qualities of a band...technicalities, maybe but musical interpretation...is really so subjective... Rolling Eyes

really think they should scrap the best band competiton segment, since the central judging part is instrumental enough for bands to assess themselves to a certain level of capabilities... Very Happy
