Not likely, since USC is going to the Orange Bowl.

unfortunetly I couldn't hear them place but they were pretty small :shock:
it was cute because their little brothers/sisters were standards for the flags

what do you mean by us being small?
both band size and.. height wise. but then again haha it couldve just been me not getting a realy good look...but it was kinda cute, haha. anyway, i was in awe when i found out they would be in the rose parade. oneof the parents said they were really good. and i'll take their word for it. can't wait to see them jan01 :lol:

Really really excited about seeing North park MS in the Rose Parade. I mean, when I saw them step off the bus waaaaay back in october during the Norwalk Halloween Parade, I'm like "little middle school kids" (no offense, but that's what I thought). BUt when I heard them play, I instantly thought "Wow, that's North Park" without even seeing their banner. Needless to say, they took sweepstakes over us, Garey HS, and Notre Dame HS. Congrats to you guys on making it. It's also gonna be refreshing to see a band that DOESN'T have 9278767 people marching down the street.

Well it looks okay so far but keep them crossed it almost rained during bandfest during El Dorado's performance today but, it didnt and instead there was an awesome blast of sunlight for our last song Samba Del Gringo. It was cool. It would be cool to have a 60 degree day for the Rose Parade because it would be a better chance of not passing out.
