dylan123 Posted October 26, 2014 Author Report Share Posted October 26, 2014 I can only remember some of the scores our band director told us, but the order is 1st Friendswood with 11 2nd The Woodlands with 13 3rd Spring with 17 4th Pearland 5th Dawson with 32 6th North Shore with I think 33 7th Dickinson with I think 34 or 35 Go Friendswood! and go Pearland! jmatthews 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Music was clearer in finals, but they fell apart briefly after a flute soli dragged behind the drum majors. But don't get me wrong: Friendswood had two very, very solid performances on Saturday, especially visually. Edited. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jmatthews Posted October 26, 2014 Report Share Posted October 26, 2014 Prelims (low quality): Finals (high quality): https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Fxh2Z2t6Fac The opener and closer sound and look like they are pretty much completed. The closer speeds up every time I watch the show. At 6:50, the flutes drag a lot, which causes timing issues on the next brass entrance. However, timing was better during prelims in that same spot.

LKendrick Posted October 26, 2014 Report Share Posted October 26, 2014 Very nice show for Friendswood, they REALLY stepped up to the plate for 6A. Excited to see how they do, love the Mishima opener. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

stoli Posted October 27, 2014 Report Share Posted October 27, 2014 Scores are out. Wow, one judge put the Woodlands in 8th in Music in Finals. http://www.uilforms.com/regions/19/AreaMarching/RESULTS/2014-2015/2014%20Area%20F%20Finals.pdf Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NASA Bandman Posted October 27, 2014 Report Share Posted October 27, 2014 Very nice show for Friendswood, they REALLY stepped up to the plate for 6A. Excited to see how they do, love the Mishima opener. Oh, to have a band/guard that large. Don't get me wrong. Beautiful show (even as I watch it with sound off). Just beautiful. And those are the beautiful things you can do with that many kids. Not surprised at all that Friendswood took the finals. Hopefully they'll perform their full show at halftime against Clear Lake so I can see it first hand. I had all the bands called except I had Brazoswood and CP making finals and moving on, so I was surprised by North Shore. I thought Dickinson and Dawson would be bubble bands for state. Three points between them, so it was awfully close. Anyway, tough day for our kids finishing 11th in prelims, but sincere congratulations to all the programs moving on. They are a joy to watch. ... and REALLY can't wait to see Friendswood on Friday. btttkd66 and jessmiller77546 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NASA Bandman Posted October 27, 2014 Report Share Posted October 27, 2014 Yeah, there were some strange ordinals here and there. But overall, I think the judges did an outstanding job being consistent. Agreed. It looked like was a remarkable consistency except for Pearland marching. Wow. One worst, the other judge almost best. Wonder if there has ever been an eight place gap between two judges. Only way it could be bigger would be one judge says they're the best, one judge says they're the worst. I always jump to the band that barely missed. If you look at J2, he/she has Dickinson and CP 8 and 9 with a 15 point difference or J3 with a 20 point difference. Either of those two go the other way, and the outcome is different. Life may have been better before the days of the internet when disappointed students, teachers, and parents could spend weeks dissecting results.

Popular Post Rubisco Posted October 27, 2014 Popular Post Report Share Posted October 27, 2014 Prelims Ordinals (3 music judges, 2 visual judges + total) The Woodlands 1 1 2 1 4 (9) Friendswood 2 2 1 3 3 (11) Spring 6 5 3 9 1 (24) Pearland 3 10 4 2 7 (26) Dawson 5 7 5 4 6 (27) Brazoswood 9 3 7 7 9 (35) College Park 8 9 12 5 5 (39) Dickinson 4 6 8 10 12 (40) Oak Ridge 7 11 13 6 11 (48) North Shore 11 8 9 13 8 (49) Finals Ordinals Friendswood 1 3 2 2 3 (11) The Woodlands 2 1 8 1 1 (13) Spring 4 2 1 3 7 (17) Pearland 3 4 3 10 2 (22) Dawson 8 5 4 5 10 (32) North Shore 6 7 9 5 6 (33) Dickinson 9 8 6 7 5 (35) College Park 5 9 7 6 9 (36) Brazoswood 7 10 9 8 4 (38) Oak Ridge 10 6 10 4 8 (38) So, three of the five judges had The Woodlands first in both prelims and finals. Friendswood, Area F champion, had one judge place them in first in finals. The 8th place music score in finals, probably from the guy that gave them the 4th place visual score in prelims, did The Woodlands in. This is why there needs to be a bad judge rule. Interestingly, the guy had Spring ranked first in visual in prelims and in music in finals. Spring has a great show, but methinks this older man was living a little bit in the past. jmatthews, kmarimba and Shadow Weaver 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Interestingly, the guy had Spring ranked first in visual in prelims and in music in finals. Spring has a great show, but methinks this older man was living a little bit in the past. Here are the judges for State: 2014 UIL SMBC ADJUDICATORS Rich Armstrong - Waxahachie High School, Waxahachie, TX Bryan Christian - Vista Ridge High School, Cedar Park, TX Phil Clements – Texas A&M University at Commerce Chip Crotts - Georgia Tech University Chris Knighten - University of Arkansas Jesse Leyva - Kent State University Albert Lo - University of Texas at Brownsville Michael Robinson - University of Georgia Corey Spurlin – Auburn University Mark Waymire – University of Southern Mississippi 3 of the judges (Chip, Albert, and Mark) are veteran BOA/DCI adjudicators in the music performance captions. Also, based on the listing of individuals, there doesn't seem to be an "older"/"bad" judge. So hopefully, each school will get a fair assessment. jmatthews 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It was worth it. There were kids everywhere! Very nice. Good luck to them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
