Anyone know if there's a chance of seeing Vandegrift at grand nationals next year?

Welp, to say the 2023 marching season was crazy is an understatement. Huge congratulations to all high school bands this fall. This will definitely go down as one of the most competitive seasons yet, with so many young musicians setting new high standards for this activity. For band parents in here, you should be beyond proud of your children in marching band. These kiddos are the future of not only music, but the future of America. Building this unparalleled discipline from a very young age will have a lasting impact on their lives. For current band members, your levels of commitment, discipline, and passion for this activity are very admirable. I have huge respect to you all since you proved that anything is possible with effort and commitment. Continue working hard not only in music, but in your future endeavors in life. I wish the very best for everyone in this forum. See you all again next year!

Welp, the third place curse continues

Hebron going second to last in finals is literally the best thing that could've happened to them right now.

Finals will be a bloodbath

Oh my...

WOODLANDS!!!!

Round Rock's ballad is just beautiful

Centerville giving me 2022 Troopers vibes at the end with the final drill move lol. Great performance today!

Hebron, oh my... Absolutely speechless. I watched this from my living room and my goodness, I can feel their energy through my tv. I have only seen people already standing up and cheering before the show was over for DCI groups. I have never seen it in BOA. I did catch some very very minor mistakes through the multicam, but I would be shocked if this doesn't win music and general effect. The technical demand for the musicians on the field is off the charts. The color guard was also very clean and spot on. Beautifully executed performance. BRAVO HEBRON!

Hebron just never fails to impress me. The new closer design made my mouth drop and freak out (in a good way) in my room. As previously stated, there are some very minor visual discrepancies. However, I can totally see this show taking the music and GE captions (possibly even the Eagle). Overall, a very well executed performance today. The students and staff of the Hebron Band should be very proud of the product they put on the field.

No Canton in finals is insane

wow

Gotcha, makes sense now. Good luck today!

I see Kaufman, Terrell, and Naaman Forest are all on the official schedule for the Mesquite Marching Festival today. Are they attending both the Mesquite contest and the Sunnyvale Invitational in one day?
