  1. I really want Keller to return as well, but I would like to see another compelling visual program from them before they go. They’re the only consistent San Antonio finalist that has yet to crack the top half, and for one of the best playing bands in the country, I think their recent visual offerings have held them back a bit. 2019 was a miss aesthetically, and 2021 was too bare-bones. Also, I saw that Seven Lakes will have over 100 guard members on the field this year so I imagine they’re planning something exciting!
  2. Miamisburg is complete perfection. I did not see a single mistake.
  3. Westlake may not have the most difficult or flashy moments, but the extremely high level of training is so evident. The technical proficiency just speaks for itself.
  4. TWHS and Miamisburg were both incredible, as expected. Probably my two favorite SW shows this year. Miamisburg’s double rifle moment is just the biggest flex.
  5. I really enjoy West Broward’s show! It feels fresh (but maybe that’s because I hadn’t seen it until this week 😂) There is just way too much going on with Tarpon’s soundtrack. Still found myself enjoying the show though.
  6. TWHS was so clean and confident. It also helps that their show really connects with the audience.
  7. Miamisburg is incredible. Love that show so much. Norwin was so much better than just a few weeks ago, which was awesome to see.
  8. Yay Center Grove!! Much better finals performance. The show is so so difficult with the soundtrack being so quiet and not rhythmic.
  9. Carmel and Avon were both absolutely incredible. You could hear every single catch from Carmel, it was so solid. And then Avon comes out with something a bit different yet SO compelling. I really couldn’t tell which was better.
  10. Marcus’ ballad>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>
  11. Broken Arrow is just so undeniable. Not my all time favorite show from them (I think Wild Blue Orchid tells a better story) but it’s up there.
  12. I get big DCI vibes from Blue Springs. Maybe it’s the uniforms. They march really really well. Guard is fantastic. I though it was an interesting choice to have the brass all the way near the end zone for the first hit…
  13. I’m rarely ever a fan of vocal soloists in marching shows, but CTJ’s singer was great.
  14. Mason sounds so good! The guard is awesome too. The uniforms can make the drill look muddy, but the show has really grown on me.
  15. Vista Ridge’s show is so beautifully cinematic. Congrats on making finals on your first appearance!!
  16. I love the direction Dobyns-Bennett has gone in this year. The show kindof reminds me of Round Rock 2015. Visually the show is stunning!! I love the striking colors. Compared to Reagan, the brass is noticeably crass, but they’re playing with so much emotion! The choir is a perfect choice…it just adds the right emotion. Beautiful show.
  17. So proud of the piccolo and bass clarinet players for nailing that duet after having trouble last week! What a way to start finals!!! Congrats Reagan!
  18. My only prediction is Dobyns-Bennett is in finals.
  19. I was watching the the 6A prelims awards, and it looks like the Seven Lakes drum majors thought their name was called when Southlake Carroll was called as the last finalist 😢😢😢😢😢😢 They were second out at both competitions this week. Hopefully their time comes next year!
  20. Half of the finalists are from DFW 😲
