WHAT IS AMB200?
WHAT IS AMB200?
As a celebration of 200 posts, 2 years, AND over 1,000 followers, AMB has launched a new project called AMB200!
On this page, there is a collection of photos from groups that have existed in Alberta. It ranges from the Calgary Stampede Showband (1970-Present) to Rhapsody Indoor Winds (2015-2016). This has been created to serve as a reminder to members past and present that there is lots of rich history of the Marching Arts in Alberta, as history is typically passed down verbally and many of it is not common knowledge.
This project was created by Alistair Lloyd and Joshua Thai
Credits goes to the rightful owners of the photos
(If any of the years or location is wrong, feel free to contact the AMB team, thank you)
To kick things off, we're starting with a quick collection of lower-quality images that showcase very special moments.

WAMSB (2000)

CS Europe Tour (2001)
Isn't it wild to think that they're all just band kids? We idolize them through these low quality images, but they're just like us.
Next, let's look at some closeup performance photos of them having a BLAST!
