  4. 2019 BOA San Antonio

    in Past Contests, Events, and Festivals Archive

    Posted

    Just to throw my own predictions in here :)

     

    1. Reagan (Absolutely love their show this year, it's so fun!)

    2. Hebron (Love their ballad!)

    3. Vandegrift (Again, love the ballad!)

    4. FloMo (Haven't gotten a chance to see their show yet, but it's FloMo so I'm sure it's amazing)

    5. Leander (that's me! my favorite of the three shows I've been in, it's so physically taxing and a blast) 

    6. CTJ (I've heard they've made a lot of changes to their show since Austin, and I'm excited to see how they do! Big fan!)

    7. Vista Ridge (Really good brass here, got to hear a bit in warm-up this weekend and really enjoyed it once again)

     

    Everything in the bottom seven is even more guesswork as I haven't gotten the chance to watch a lot of these shows

     

    8. The Woodlands

    9. Marcus

    10. James Bowie

    11. Keller

    12. Cedar Park

    13. Cedar Ridge

    14. Rouse

     

    Music: Hebron

    GE: Reagan

    Visual: Reagan

     

    I don't see anyone sweeping captions this year in finals. As everyone else says, it's going to be an interesting and fun year!

    LD bell made a 89.2 in St.Louis finals 

    I know its prohibitive to compare scores without context to other regionals, but that still implies a high level of execution, especially if the scores are around 1 point away from Blue Springs. No offense to Rouse or any other of the lower 7 listed, but LD bell has a strong strong chance this year, to not only make finals, but place higher than 14th like last year.

    This was during one of our rehearsals, and i still get it even today.

     

    Our schools sousaphones are pretty old, and some of the bits doesn't properly fit nice and tight like they should, and during the end of the first part, my WHOLE mouthpiece came out with 1/2 of the bits attached (there was 2 bits). We still had 4 more parts to go, and while i welcomed the chance to improve my marching and dot accuracy, worse things happened.....

    1/2 way twords the end of 3rd part, my dot book fell out of my pocket ( i didn't have time to throw it into my bags before the rep started), and i found out later that a color guard girl tripped over my nice and shiny silver mouthpiece. I still have the black mark to this day.
