jcbg Posted November 5, 2018 Report Share Posted November 5, 2018 Wow. Watching this show progress through the season, wow. That music is by far the best I've ever heard it. I don't know if this gets them into finals, but they certainly have a chance. Everything comes together so well, the only question is can it compete with the heavy-hitters.

MadisonBandMan1 Posted November 5, 2018 Report Share Posted November 5, 2018 Those of you who have seen Keller live before, I ask you to pay attention to the individual performers this time around. You’ll notice that they put ever ounce of their emotions into their shows, and you can feel it. They sell every little part, and that’s part of what makes them so special to me, not to mention their character off of the field. Definitely one of my favorite programs, alongside FloMo.

jcbg Posted November 5, 2018 Report Share Posted November 5, 2018 Wow. VERY strong brass opener there by North Shore. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ranian04 Posted November 5, 2018 Report Share Posted November 5, 2018 First time seeing Coppell ever since 2014. Wow, their brass is very powerful! Especially how powerful their low brass is for such an early time. Blew me away! Music was great, visuals were MUCH better than when I last saw them. Am I just overhyping this, or are they really that good? I know they had a complete director change recently, but I'm surprised how they're able to still be competitive. I know they did pretty well in their area, probably the hardest area in the state as well, getting 2nd in prelims and 3rd (I believe?) in finals. They got somewhere around 20th in BOA prelims, not making it. However, surprising it isn't talked about too much here. I'm an alumni of Marcus, and even coming from LISD, I'm surprised how much of a kick they're delivering this year. Finally competing with the big boys! How's everyone else feeling about Coppell, or am I just that one guy? Found a video of their performance this morning too, pretty good other than some timing errors. meursault 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LostChoirGuy Posted November 5, 2018 Report Share Posted November 5, 2018 Coppell hasn't missed UIL state finals in ages. I would be more surprised to see them miss than make it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
meursault Posted November 5, 2018 Report Share Posted November 5, 2018 This year’s a different beast than years before, though. And that super early performance time doesn’t help anyone. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Band2013 Posted November 6, 2018 Report Share Posted November 6, 2018 Reagan will make finals like Coppell they have constantly proven success at the state contest. I would also be surprised if they didn't make it. James Bowie should be able to slide into finals but you never know, a lot of great bands are performing and things can get difficult when judging this many 1 ranking bands.

Band2013 Posted November 6, 2018 Report Share Posted November 6, 2018 Also, bands like Coppell and Marcus used to be a prime example of UIL type shows, this is why they fair so well here. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Band2013 Posted November 6, 2018 Report Share Posted November 6, 2018 I hope they have an incredible run tonight. I miss the Rock band being in the middle of the conversation on this forum. They have a long history of greatness and I hope that they are back on top very soon. I wish them luck to hopefully they have a great time and enjoy themselves.

Band2013 Posted November 6, 2018 Report Share Posted November 6, 2018 This contest is hard to predict, we know that it would be difficult for bands from Area's I, G, and A to be in finals. Area E's champion Pearland might be the only one from that area able to advance. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
