  1. Top six in Scholastic World Finals will definitely be “Must Watch TV” (or even better if you can be in UD Arena!).
  2. I was waiting for someone to break this down. Thanks @packwick for working through the statistics behind TWHS World’s art and athleticism. This show is OUTRAGEOUSLY AMAZING!
  3. Excellent approximation, @Tubalord11 !!!!! Average of Texas Bands at GN (last 10 events) --- 4.9 2023 --- 8 2022 --- 4 2021 --- 7 2020 --- N/A 2019 --- 6 2018 --- 1 2017 --- 6 2016 --- 5 2015 --- 5 2014 --- 2 2013 --- 5
  4. I will second @packwick’s enthusiastic expectation for the upcoming WGI (including the TCGC and NTCA circuits) season! Here’s an update - As of this past Friday, The Woodlands World Guard has CLEARED the 2024 WGI Scholastic World Championship waitlist and will be competing in Dayton, OH for a third consecutive year!
  5. From my own experience, there is no higher compliment to a teacher than the knowledge that you inspired your own students to teach as well. The Woodlands HS Guard is guided by three of the finest, most creative and energetic teachers I have ever known…led by Cynthia Robbins and ably assisted by Joseph Danforth and Tiffany Quinstein.
  6. Well, maybe BOA heard the discussion. According to the most recent schedule release (10/3), The Woodlands is now in Panel 1 (after the final break at 1:00 pm).
  7. As a member of the Pit Crew, I can confirm that the Gaudi Benches ARE custom made. We utilized aluminum from the 2019-21-22 stage props to fabricate the infrastructure. All of the flooring and steps were created and added by parents. The broken mosaics were printed and are attached for each performance. The bench backs are all removed for transport. The benches will have additional elements applied in the coming weeks, including new paint coloring and further shaping of the bench backs to more closely match the source benches from Barcelona's Park Guell.
  8. Hey @packwick !! TWHS has rescheduled all rehearsals to evening/night. Even with that, they were limited to just 3.5 hours outside on the field this past week!!! In fact, on Thursday night, once the “feels like” temp was below the district-mandated limit, the band was outside for 6 minutes followed by two lightning delays lasting the remainder of the scheduled rehearsal time (no rain, OF COURSE!). @Rubisco is correct; Part 2 IS on the field. There was just no time solidify the new material completed the last time the band was on the field (Wednesday). The student performers are focused, excited, and working hard. TWHS travels to play Lamar at Delmar Stadium in Houston this week. Because of the travel logistics, the Gaudi Props will make their first appearance the week after next.
  9. Considering they all qualify for UIL State, Claudia Taylor Johnson, Hebron, James Bowie, Round Rock, and The Woodlands will each have a very busy 13 days (Oct. 30 - Nov. 11)!!! …..and it all starts in just two weeks!!!!
  10. It will be a busy Fall for The Woodlands HS Band …… all three!
  11. Hello @stellamo! Yes, it is confirmed. WGI will not publish revised schedules until Thursday’s prior to the Regional. If you go to the 2023 Current Entries for WGI Austin (wgi.org), you will notice that the classification changes are noted there (Flower Mound now in SW; Jordan in SO). Enjoy the show!
  12. Hey @LeanderMomma! Jordan HS has also just been promoted; from A Class to Open Class (and will be attending WGI Austin)! You mentioned in this week’s On A Water Break podcast that you weren’t familiar with Jordan HS. Jordan is the newest HS in Katy ISD. This is their 3rd year in existence and first year with four full classes of students. They made the BOA Shenandoah Finals this past fall! I’m expecting great things from this program (plus my daughter is their 1st Assistant Director 😉)! As a longtime proud supporter and Floor Crew member of TWHS Guards, I’m looking forward to seeing you again in Austin on Sunday (I’ll be at the WGI Katy Percussion Regional Saturday to watch my son’s performance with Austin’s Rhythmic Force).
