I have to say to this, that the organization in Holland tries every year to allow more 
brassbands to the championships. Last year 29 bands played, this year 33. 
There were 43 bands you would play. So the organization kan never let 43 bands 
play at one day. Do percussionist have to suffer from the fact that there are more 
bands playing at one day. Just let about 27 bands play and let them give a 
chance to give an optimal performance. (Sorry about my bad English, but I'm 
from Holland.)
