Popular Post Rubisco Posted November 6, 2023 Popular Post Report Share Posted November 6, 2023 A place for those who Slay All Day. Yes, I'm starting this thread a little too early, but I was over at the WGI website just a moment ago and couldn't resist. Unlike BOA, WGI actually posts current entries for their events as the units sign up. No waiting, no mystery! The current winter guard lists for the WGI World Championships in Dayton reveal that Texas will yet again be extremely well-represented. I'm especially excited to see many of the units that have impressed me this marching season on the lists. Hopefully those guards continue to improve and impress as we move into the winter guard season!

Hard Core Band Fan Posted November 6, 2023 Report Share Posted November 6, 2023 Hey, I'm ready! It's really not that long until the season starts. packwick 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tubalord11 Posted November 6, 2023 Report Share Posted November 6, 2023 Can't wait for the season to start!!! Last year was the first time I was able to really dive into WGI, both for guard and percussion and I'm so happy I did!! The Woodlands and Tarpon are the 2 I remember the most, that TS show was INCREDIBLE!!! Really wanted them to win, but Carmel was super clean. Can't wait for this season! packwick 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
packwick Posted November 6, 2023 Report Share Posted November 6, 2023 twhs is on the wait list for Dayton which is odd bc they usually don't attend on school years they go to BOA Nats. 2022 was an exception to make up for the 2021 COVID season. maybe they think there's a chance they'll raise the funds???

Popular Post LeanderMomma Posted December 2, 2023 Popular Post Report Share Posted December 2, 2023 I also really wish Leander was doing WGI this season. They really have a great guard this year and I was hopeful we would finally see them back in WGI!

packwick Posted December 5, 2023 Report Share Posted December 5, 2023 https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=1teKllO6D0k for the design peeps still planning their show, which i can't imagine there are that many at this point lol.

packwick Posted December 5, 2023 Report Share Posted December 5, 2023 wanna add one more priority to Karl's list for this season: MOVEMENT. suuuper duper thrilled to see Houston Ballet's production of Kenneth MacMillan's Mayerling this May. i want all those kids and experienced performers w/ spin accounts on Insta to be as excited about learning stuff like this as they are about learning the newest daredevil trick toss. https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=AQ6wSf6MjRM&pp=ygUJTWF5ZXJsaW5n maaaybe a little less PG-13 lol. but look at the technical command combined w/ the commitment to character, you feel the performers' lust tinged w/ self-destruction, even as they do the most ridiculously demanding things w/ their bodies lol. it's pure communication. even at the highest levels in IW there's a lot of room for growth here. opens new equipment avenues too.

packwick Posted December 5, 2023 Report Share Posted December 5, 2023 on another note i think WGI should have Steven McRae do the day after class at Worlds. he seems a helluva lot nicer and humbler than Mia Michaels LOL. more talented also. https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=zl5FU3cRvAU Rubisco 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
