marching bandMarching band?

I remember seeing in tv one time professional marching bands competing against each other. When will they show marching band contests on tv and what was this called?
look at your local cable channel..like your city govt channel.. u can do a lil research and go see em in person...more than likely it was called battle of the bands..or an invitational..or it was a competion..there is this top band i cant remember what its called. dc something
DCI (Drum Corps International) was on ESPN2 about 2 months ago and that was amazing! But yeah I am helping at the Cavaliers drum corp auditions for next year tomorrow, it will be amazingly fun.

Ok, you picked the worst best answer ever.
It's DCI.

THE BEST MARCHING BAND IN THE USA IS FLORIDA AGRICULTURE Amarching bandND MECHANICAL UNIVERSITY'S. THEY VE ALWAYS BEEN

Drum Corps International is the main marching band competition that is broadcasted on TV. They aren't professional though, HS - college age kids. Check out the website.
As far as I know, the only professional marching band is the part of the drum corps called Star of Indiana that makes up the casts of the show "Blast!". ESPN2 shows Drum Corps International championships which is for top American drum corps that people about 18 to 22 years old join and usually pay part of the costs to be in. You Tube has a lot of clips of the broadcasts from fans of certain drum corps. You'll probably recognize some of the shows if you search for "DCI" and the year you watched.
you should check with your cable company.

I love marching band-- played in it for years.

What you saw on television is the Drum Corps International (DCI for short). Typically they'll show finals at the beginning of the school year (high schoolers and college students audition and march in these bands and have to be back in time for school), sometimes on ESPN. Check www.dci.org for more information.

Hope this helps!
