To say that the 2018 Bands of America season has been impressive is probably the understatement of the year. I always expect the top drum and bugle corps of the world to come out with something groundbreaking by way of marching arts show design, but this year's BOA season has topped even DCI for me.
The 2018 BOA season has seen 18 regionals, 3 super regionals, and over 750 bands compete for the last seven weeks in a row. Now, it all comes down to 3 days of competition inside Lucas Oil Stadium for the chance to be named the 2018 Bands of America Grand National Champions.
The time has come for bands to load up their trucks, props, and performers and begin their journey to the 2018 BOA Grand Nationals in Indianapolis, Indiana.
