northtexasbandfan Posted October 31, 2023 Posted October 31, 2023 Beautiful performance FloMo! I’d love to see them medal but it’s so tough. Today is the 8th anniversary of Surreal winning BOA SA (my son’s senior year ❤️). Hope that’s a good luck omen! Quote

washedupalum2017 Posted October 31, 2023 Posted October 31, 2023 Some timing difficulties in Marcus' first production that may knock them out of the running for gold. MAN can this drumline throw down though! Quote
crunchycookie3 Posted October 31, 2023 Posted October 31, 2023 What an emotional show! I actually think Marcus had a stronger run than yesterday. First is a complete toss-up right now. ChristopherRoden and 2ndgenbandmom75 2 Quote

Popular Post Origin Posted October 31, 2023 Popular Post Posted October 31, 2023 Marcus’ show might be my favorite of the season. It just all works so well! That woodwind book in the first part is so unique and cool. They nailed the percussion feature. Heard a bit of phasing in the opener but they’ve kinda struggled with that all season and been fine.

MarchingBandOG Posted October 31, 2023 Posted October 31, 2023 Wow. Vista Ridge. That was some clean brass feature! And that opening was so powerful! Such a great performance. Thank you! Quote
VandyBandyFandy Posted October 31, 2023 Posted October 31, 2023 2 hours ago, BandFan95 said: As a contest announcer, BLAME THE BAND! We follow the script. The script has us start the announcement 45 seconds before their 8 minute timer starts. If the band starts playing, we still have to talk at 8 minutes before. It's my understanding that different competitions (UIL, BoA, etc) have different lengths and timings for shows. So bands have one show that will conform to all the different times. They start "early" with the understanding that the portion of the show that happens before the official clock starts isn't judged. And that's why the beginning of the show that starts before/during the announcements is pretty low key - more artistic than lots of marching and music. The real meat and potatoes of the show doesn't start until official time begins. Vandegrift's shows are a good example of this. Quote
SleepySeal Posted October 31, 2023 Posted October 31, 2023 Vista ridge actually might medal. Oh my. Quote

Thoroughly enjoyed the clarity of articulation with the generator, nice dynamic range, very nice consistent tone quality although I wish it could be a bit less static? Quote

Dave609 Posted October 31, 2023 Posted October 31, 2023 Vista Ridge HS- HELLO VISTA RIDGE! This is my first time seeing them this year, and I have to say, the visuals are FANTASTIC! The music is really nice, and the balance throughout the band is epic! The opener caught me off guard, and that is a good thing! The Ballad is beautiful! Playing Through the Fire and Flames in the Final part?!? YES PLEASE! Thank you Vista Ridge for the amazing performance! I truly believe we have witnessed a possible State Winning run! gregorydf01 1 Quote
