I kick off the music to watch and listen while waiting for results with a band that I featured four years ago presenting a new pair of performances, Na Koa Ali'i - Hawai'i All-State Marching Band - 2024 Pasadena Bandfest from Luis of Music213.
Representing the state of Hawaii,I wrote that I was saving this band's performances for this post in Some of my favorite bands at the 2024 Rose Parade for New Year's Day. The dances alone made it worth the wait.

Luis of Music213 also captured Na Koa Ali'i - Hawai'i All-State Marching Band - 2024 Pasadena Rose Parade.
Representing the state of Hawaii,Great performances! No wonder they got invited back. Here's to seeing them marching down Colorado Boulevard in 2029!

Follow over the jump for marching bands from Alaska and North Dakota along with a cameo of a band from the Aloha State.
I'm also reusing Alaska's representative from four years ago, Colony H.S. from Palmer, Alaska. Watch Anchorage Daily News reporting Palmer, AK marching band heads to Grand Champion Nationals from 2015.
That trip made history because it was the first time bands from both Alaska and Hawaii competed at BOA Grand Nationals. Watch Music For All's FEATURE: Dan Potter with Hawaii and Alaska Band Directors.
Dan Potter interviews two bands that came from thousands of miles away to perform at the 2015 Band of America Grand National Championships, presented by Yamaha.As I wrote, historic. Congratulations to both bands on the trip!
I end this virtual journey with two bands from North Dakota, beginning with Gold Star Marching Band - Danny Elfman Show from South Dakota State University.
Hello GSMB fans! Here is the video of [o]ur Danny Elfman show from October 30th, 2021!Hey, Danny Elfman music from superhero, fantasy, and horror films, perfect for Halloween!
Now the final marching band, 2023 UND v. NDSU - Pride of the North Performance, October 14, 2023.
That was a flashy pre-game show in the dark combined with a short halftime show. I'm glad UND Pride of the North Bands combined them into one video. I wish more college bands would do that. All the UND band needs to do to make this perfect would be to write a video description.
That's it for today's installment. The series should return on April 13th with this year's edition of Marching music for the Wyoming Democratic Caucuses. Troopers! That might be a busy day, because it's also Apophis Day, when I report on the perils of space. In the meantime, stay tuned for highlights of tonight's Saturday Night Live.
