  1. I wish we could see a push to turn BOA SA into something like "Grand Nats South" instead of a super regional given how big the turnout usually is and how heavy the competition is. Plus, so many good bands miss out on Nats because it's hard for them to afford or put the time aside.
  2. To be quite honest I haven't followed up much on them since...oof maybe...2019? So I wouldn't doubt they're doing well still. I know they kind of gained their footing again around 2015, assuming that's when their new director following Mr. Nelson took over. They were a pretty big competitor in the valley pre-pioneer. As for the rocky part, I know the program went through a rough patch following the opening of Pioneer HS, it cut the members and the diffusion of middle schoolers also affected that. Mr. Nelson had also lost a lot of his passion at that point as well, plus there was a lot of negative politics that followed the band due to him. Things seem to have gotten better once he retires and they got their new director whose full name I can't remember besides Mr. P. Although I do wonder if Sanchez, Rocha, and Van Epps are still there 🤔 Either way, go rattlers 😛
  3. Oh yay it's so nice to see valley bands place well against Central/North Texas bands! I wish things didn't get so rocky for Sharyland in the last couple years, I would've loved to see them be alongside Pioneer.
  4. First of all...$300?! Secondly, my partner sometimes like to do the half head turn like 😐 and look back at them when they're talking and then just turn back to watching the show. It usually ends up with them being quieter lmao.
  5. I think we're at a misunderstanding. You had actually commented on my post back in September asking me to call out which parents were making negative remarks on another program, so I'd believe we're on the same page that it's not something that should be done in the stands, speaking negatively of others just to be clear. The other person wasn't simply stating they have mics, that would be fair commentary. They're pointing out that it's "weird to credit" Rouse for volume if they're mic'd. While pointing out mic use is fine, this is now the second occurrence I've seen where Vista aligned individuals speak negatively on Rouse specifically by pointing out their mic use, which again, a lot of bands use. Even saying their success in volume is tied with money. Even without mics, Rouse has some serious volume, and it's not like the judges can't tell the difference.
  6. Oh, wow. I posted back in September during BOA Austin about audience members (who I didn't want to say were Vista parents/volunteers at the time) talking negatively about Rouse and their mic use. Now it's the end of the season and it seems like nothing's changed, a vista tied individual talking negatively about Rouse volume. I wouldn't be shocked if you were the person I was sitting near at that time, I can only hope it's not a trend in the parents, your complaints are the same lmfao. A lot of programs mic, I'm not sure why Vista people have a reoccurring issue with Rouse's use of them.
  7. I'm partial to a subway surfers gameplay in the bottom of the stream but I think keys would work as well
  8. I'm so sad I only say woodlands live once this season :') they're an absolute favorite of mine and they're so gooooood ugh the energy of this run felt so electric
  9. Oh!! Okay, yeah, that makes total sense. Haha I appreciate it! I completely see it now. Thank you
  10. Could anyone explain the connection to the dots and all the Mary Poppins-esque stuff with L.D Bell? I'm not entirely sure I understand what's being conveyed.
  11. Agreed. The concept was interesting but there was a lot of opportunities that just weren't taken, imo.
  12. That tuba/trombone solo is absolutely insane. The talent is crazy and he plays so effortlessly on both instruments. It's been my favorite soloist to watch this season.
