I totally agree. Coppell was moving almost the entire show and Duncanville had great diagonals.
as for the people above i too agree with how people should'nt critique others on how difficult the drill is unless you're really sure that it's something you think you can do better...... it may not seem like its hard but its not our job to make it seem hard... its too take a hard drill and execute it and make it seem like that were good enough to do something so complex which in my opinion i believe alot of the bands that i got to see did very well at doing that

Just another band parent with no music background....who has learned tons of stuff this past marching season and still learning...
I was at all the UIL competitions and both days at BOA volunteering and I agree very much so how very talented this state is. We just moved here over 3 yrs ago from California and I am still amazed by all of the talent and all the hard work.
Recently I was going through videos of the marching bands in So Cal (went to high school there, many, many years ago). There is pretty much no comparison to the marching here in Texas. Yes, they work hard too and would never deny them that, but it's not the same level, with a few exceptions. If you see how many march at the Los Angeles BOA is 16 bands and not all are from Cali. They have tons of marching festivals though. My old college does march at BOA (Riverside City College-go Marching Tigers!!!) but it seems to be a big exception.
By the way, from the UIL booklet they give out at State, I think it said Duncanville has 350 participants. I will be corrected if I am wrong lol. And I did notice too that the tubas at Bell sit at the beginning of their program.
actually the little booklett (me and my sax friend passed them out) said that we have 300 participants and that was coppel who had 350
