Vegiphobe Posted September 26, 2007 Report Share Posted September 26, 2007 All I can say is that I can't wait for TOC. I think a lot of people will be suprised when they see us. This is one of the coolest shows I've seen. Kinda reminds of a Reagan type show. It'll be fun to see. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This is one of the coolest shows I've seen. Kinda reminds of a Reagan type show. It'll be fun to see. Actually. If I may say so. It is nothing like Reagan. While Reagan is known for their original concepts, this one is in a class of its own. And the guard is awesome. :] Just thought I'd add a bit.

Vegiphobe Posted September 26, 2007 Report Share Posted September 26, 2007 What do you mean it's nothing like Reagan o.o... ? (JW) The ending is incredibably similar with the band exiting the field with a lone soloist standing. (It's freakin sweet!) Plus with all the crazy drill such as a density study like stuff. Both use unique drill that is a bit outside the box. Even the type of music styles are very similar. Re-watch 05' Reagan and our show this year and tell me they're not at all similar, heh. (Which is my favorite show). Although our show this year has totally different ideas and music behind it, it's still in alotta ways very similar Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ClarinetGlissandoInBlue Posted September 26, 2007 Report Share Posted September 26, 2007 OMG, i didn't know any of the bands, so I picked a random school (colony) for first, carrol for 2nd, and then alpha order after that..... (for the predictions) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You're in the band. Yes, Reagan did have a lone soloist left on the feild. That doesn't mean it's similar. I have watched '05 Reagan many times and there are DYNAMIC differences in the show.. both musically and visually. It's Mansfield. Unique. Nothing like anyone has done. This is the kind of spirit you need, bro. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

borchnork Posted September 27, 2007 Report Share Posted September 27, 2007 I remember it. and yah, it was about airplanes and flight. Their drill seemed to keep them like... infront of the front hash mark the entire time. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

borchnork Posted September 27, 2007 Report Share Posted September 27, 2007 I don't think it was intended as a bad thing. We were in a really big rush that half time, and our directors had us standing so that it was hard to look at the play back screens because we weren't really focused enough on our performance.

SerialSleeper90 Posted September 27, 2007 Report Share Posted September 27, 2007 OH sorry for not making it clear. It's neither. It was at Pizza Hut Park (kind of famous stadium) and we were like way far away from the field and stuff. Nothing against sachse. I put them up for 3rd after all in predictions. lol.

borchnork Posted September 27, 2007 Report Share Posted September 27, 2007 has anybody heard anything on Plano West? The plano bands always remain a mystery to me... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PlayOboe Posted September 27, 2007 Report Share Posted September 27, 2007 has anybody heard anything on Plano West? The plano bands always remain a mystery to me... Plano West is typically the weakest of the three Plano schools. Plano East is awesome and Plano is usually pretty good. I'm not predicting West to make finals here, but who knows.

the terminator Posted September 27, 2007 Report Share Posted September 27, 2007 You know it's kind of funny b/c supposedly west has the smartest kids and they degrade moving east, but in band it's the opposite. Probably b/c so many people do orchestra instead Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
crazyjakeup Posted September 27, 2007 Report Share Posted September 27, 2007 i heard thier show this year is about airplanes... yeah there show is about air planes... they accually look pretty good, but they always look better than most bands at the begining of october... i remember last year they beat us at this contest (for the second straight year), they talked a bunch of crap because "yeah, we beat rowlett". well when area came around and we got second(it was 1st duncanville, 2nd rowlett, 3rd coppell, 4th berkner) man they were bummed out. they bearly mad alternate for state... ther shows are always good at the begining but never great at the end, this is due to the easy drill/music...

radchad Posted September 27, 2007 Report Share Posted September 27, 2007 There have been airplane shows done before. Colleyville or someone did one a few years back. It was boring. D: I haven't seen Sachse yet, though. A Drum Corp did an airplane show in '05. It had to do with Geometry and its role in aerodynamics. It was good. Just rambling. xD Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
