  1. Next year, all the kids affected by the Covid mess should be graduated. I expect even greater performances!
  2. Ah - I did not know that! Well that's definitely a way to have bigger and better bands - get all your musicians in one basket so to say. Smart.
  3. Huge props to the crazy marching band machine you all have in your district. It has to be the premier example of a district and parents supporting their kids across an entire district in the country. I have to wonder though - do you guys start training those kids to march in Junior High? What about guard - are there colorguard schools the young 'uns start going to like the dance/gymnastics type schools elsewhere? It's astonishing to me that you all are able to put such a quality product on the field with only 8 hours a week of rehearsal. I have always though it would be cool if they started teaching some of the marching skills at the Jr. High level, wondering if anyone is actually already doing that? Anyway, congrats. Love watching the schools from LISD perform!
  4. That Friendswood show was soooo fun! Really great job Friendswood!
  5. J.M. Hanks is the surprise of the day for me so far. They are loud for their size and tight! Huge guard. Don’t sleep on these guys and gals!
  6. Zero props - wonder if that will hurt GE? Vandy plays their faces off though and as you said - crazy marching.
  7. Cy-Fair I thought got off to a little bit of a rough start but then it just cleaned up and they nailed the rest of the show. Looking forward to watching that one again. That Pearland show blew me away. Sounds incredible and those uniforms....WOW. Incredible visual. I can't believe Bridgeland has only been around since 2017. There are some superstar bands coming up but the first half of this has been VERY satisfying.
  8. Interesting. How does that increase the chances of any of the bands in Area I making it to state in the future?
  9. Why do you think they should dissolve the area? Because there are not enough bands in it?
  10. Ugh, I feel for them. We had our power fail at UIL Area a few years back and had to do the entire show with no electronics, no microphones for soloists ... it was brutal.
