Ok, so I’ve been told that AISD is considering cutting fine arts/magnet programs and anyone who transferred to a school like McCallum to attend the magnet program will have to go to the school they’re zoned to. There is a meeting at McCallum’s cafeteria to speak against these changes from 5:30-8:00. I am not 100% on all of this, but this is coming from a person at McCallum.

Thank you!

BOA SA ROLL CALL
Dog885 replied to MadisonBandMan1's topic in Everything Music: Marching, Concert, Auditions and more
Sad I won't be there. I wish I could skip school to watch, but UIL wouldn't like my grades if I did such a thing. -
I have a radical idea that I came up with of without much though and I don't know if it would work. Olympic diving has a system where they scrap the highest and lowest two ordinals/scores that were achieved by a diver and the remaining 3 scores are added together (then multiplied for difficulty, but I don't think that's necessary for band) to get their final score. What if UIL did a similar system?

Flomarching: High Cam vs Multi Cam
Dog885 replied to Nny14's topic in Everything Music: Marching, Concert, Auditions and more
You know what? That's a good point. I'm still happy with our multicam from Waco because it actually showed me instead of panning over all of pit, but then cutting to high cam right before getting to me. -
Flomarching: High Cam vs Multi Cam
Dog885 replied to Nny14's topic in Everything Music: Marching, Concert, Auditions and more
The thing is, Flo hasn't seen most of these shows I'm assuming so they just jump to whatever they see might be important a lot of the times. -
Flomarching: High Cam vs Multi Cam
Dog885 replied to Nny14's topic in Everything Music: Marching, Concert, Auditions and more
I prefer multicam, just because I like the different views and angles even if it's shaky sometimes. -
Anderson is 5-3 right now, but I can bet we’re going to end with 5-5 because we play Westlake and Lake Travis next week and the week after

Area D 2018
Dog885 replied to MadisonBandMan1's topic in Past Contests, Events, and Festivals Archive
Man, I did not expect the 2 finalists that aren’t the Big 8 to be Hays and Smithson Valley. Good for them! -
Yeah, when I first saw the ordinals I didn’t even notice the actual numbered score above it until 2 years later

A Alamo show?!?!
Dog885 replied to MegaBear's topic in Everything Music: Marching, Concert, Auditions and more
We do already have a thread for similar ideas like this, but that show definitely has a lot of potential. I remember in 7th grade them saying that there was a song played by trumpets and a field drum which could definitely be implemented. http://www.txbands.com/forums/index.php?/topic/7144-what-does-your-dream-show-look-like/ -
Oh yeah, forgot to say that I was also half asleep while the DNA and Clay things happened.
-
So lately I've been having band pop up everywhere in my life. A couple weeks ago while staying up late I wrote, "DNA is only found in 6A bands" instead of Eukaryotes. Then last Wednesday I wrote, "Clay chartered the Second National Band of America" in AP US History. Finally I had a dream a couple nights ago where a few band kids from my school moved to Flower Mound and I asked them to give a flower petal and say hi to my friend who goes to Carmel, not FloMo, then we were in a really wide charter bus to a competition. I don't know what's wrong with me if anything, but this is getting a little strange.

I would like it if you were at Heroes, because I never got to meet you at Waco for obvious reasons.

Area D 2018

What about those last 2 spots? I don't blame you if you can't decide, those last 2 are in high contention. -
Rain, Rain Go Away!
Dog885 replied to PSHSMom's topic in Everything Music: Marching, Concert, Auditions and more
So all this rain has caused a bit of an issue here in Austin. There's too much sediment in the water source that the treatment plants can't process it all fast enough, so now we can't drink faucet water. -

Prairie View was too much fun. We approached one of our directors who was the bari solo in Crossmen 2012 for Earthsong and all he said was, "I know"

Thoughts on Pearland High School?
Dog885 replied to SIMON's topic in Everything Music: Marching, Concert, Auditions and more
So I guess this is the best place to put it without starting a new topic. Pearland has recently been selected to march at the 2020 Rose Parade.- 7 replies
