Congratulations are in order for a number of our band students. These musicians were invited to participate in a couple of events this past weekend that focused on enhancing their skills, learning new music under an extremely tight deadline, culminating in performances at the end of the weekend.
Thursday night’s (11/8/18) Veteran’s Concert was captured on audio and available for your listening pleasure here on the website!

Under the lights of Dad’s Stadium, before the fight begins for that grand win. Our Panthers versus their team, our band versus their band. We are in it to win it. This is what we train for, what we spend hours a week preparing for, what we put our blood, sweat, and tears into; the highlight of our week.

It all starts with the wave of a hand and a very distinct chant. The lights illuminate the field, the stands are packed, adrenaline is rushing through everyone’s veins as battle time arrives. Suddenly, the chant crescendos, “SWANG!” they scream until their voices crack.
On a night that served as a rehearsal, of sorts, for the upcoming MPA next week, both schools were able to practice their chops in front of an appreciative audience at the PHS auditorium. Both bands played extremely well.
Due to apparent conflicts with the auditorium at Plant, this year’s Veteran’s Day Concert was held at Robinson High School. As it so happened, The RHS Marching Knights also had their Fall concert scheduled for this evening. No problem. We can fit. And we did.
As the name of the concert implies, tonight’s concert was a salute and tribute to our Veterans, as well as all military personnel, past and present.
It was a beautiful, fall evening at Plant High School tonight. Perfect weather for a football game. Or should we say, a shellacking!
The team started a bit slow scoring only 9 points in the first quarter. But as the game progressed, that would be all they needed.
