MARCUS JUST KILLED IT!!!! Go #TeamTexas!!! Man, I wish I was there right now...

I BET!!!!

Yes it is. Fly Away to Paradise. And her boyfriend was the featured soloist....the echo to the flute

Clever. Yeah, Castle got to me. After watching Sophie and the Castle Band 3 times last year live at Grand Nats, it definitely got to me. Especially knowing that featured guy was her boyfriend! Man.....

whoa....okay....tell me I'm not the only one WEEPING after that Castle show just now!!!!!

No, the $30 is as cheap as it gets. What you might want to do next year is order it for a 30 day period which includes Grand Nats, and the 3 weekends prior to that. That is what I did so that I could take the most advantage of the one month cost. I've been able to watch it the last 3 weekends and will finish up with GN this weekend before I cancel my subscription on Sunday. THAT makes it worth it.

I admit I was kinda hoping to see Dripping win it, but GO Cedar Park!!!

I'm so sorry hun!!! I was looking forward to seeing you guys perform again.

Well I had zero issues with Flomarching buffering but I can not get this box5 thing to play more than 30 secs before it completely stops. *sigh*

Those of you watching it on the live stream this week--what's your favorite "view"? Multi view or no?

that's too bad. Hopefully next time!

I'm so sad! I wonder what happened? I had really hoped to see them in finals.

I'm guessing they don't do the top/bottom draw in UIL.

Ohhhh thank you so much for doing this! I was going to make something similar tomorrow and I'd already completely forgotten about the different time zones! Would have missed Broken Arrow for sure.

Next week you'll be feeling the blues!!

That's awesome!!!

I'm putting my money on O'Fallon to make finals this year. One of the sweetest guys I've ever known and was fortunate enough to be in high school band with back in the day in Memphis is one of the Color Guard directors there and I'm sure rooting for them! While I'm not the hugest fan of the entire field being covered in a white tarp, that doesn't mean that their show isn't phenomenal because it is! And their guard....just wow. I also wonder about and feel a little broken hearted for William Mason and all of the issues they've struggled with this year with the entire change in band staff for them. I know that they are struggling mentally and show-wise, and I'm really pulling for those kids. They are so capable of amazing things if only given the chance! Hopefully the new directors will tap into that potential in coming years and give them a product that they can run with!!

What time is your Friday morning performance? Hopefully I will be at my desk at that time and can sit and watch it!

I'm only half joking!! There is going to be quite the withdrawal from this BOA season, I'm afraid. Of course I REALLY felt it last year as it was Leander's first trip to Grand Nats since 1999, and it was also my baby girl's senior year. I came home from Indy and I think I cried for a week because of so many "firsts" and "lasts" for my daughter and for Leander. I'm feeling a little bit that way this year as well just because another amazing marching band season is drawing to a close and I always feel let down at the end of that. Anyone else know what I'm talking about?

I'll be tuning in this evening for finals!

Best of luck to you! Let us know if you make it so we can root for you next summer!!

You've been a brat your whole life, haven't you?

Are you trying to curb my enthusiasm, young man?!! GOOD LUCK WITH THAT!!

hey don't blame ME...blame that OTHER Daniel!

wiping tears away.... This is just fantastic stuff right here. No words....and I'm a person with a LOT of words!!
