Danpod Posted November 5, 2018 Report Share Posted November 5, 2018 Pardon my French, but the crowd here f'ing sucks. If you only want to cheer for your band, stay home. Pitiful. This is kind of the norm for State Contest. The stakes are the highest they have been all season. Everyone is nervous. I kind of get it. If people want to sit on their hands and not really enjoy the rest of the contest, that's okay. I'll enjoy it more to make up for it.

TWHSParent Posted November 5, 2018 Report Share Posted November 5, 2018 I think it is quite enjoyable. Lots of great shows! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LeanderMomma Posted November 5, 2018 Report Share Posted November 5, 2018 Watching online simply does not compare to seeing this stuff live btw. This Alexander band is SO GOOD and this web broadcast is not doing this show justice. jcbg and Parkwoodmom 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jcbg Posted November 5, 2018 Report Share Posted November 5, 2018 Not sure if I mentioned it, but my bold prediction for the day is that 5 finalists will come out of Block 3. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post Bandnerd03 Posted November 5, 2018 Popular Post Report Share Posted November 5, 2018 John B Alexander wins the award for my favorite band I've never heard of before 2018. I can't wait to see what's in store for them for the future. LHSax, jcbg, LeanderMomma and 2 others 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You are more charitable than I, sir. I'm turning into a grumpy old man with low tolerance for selfishness. C'est la vie. I'll just do my part to show these f'ers how to properly support these amazing kids.

I can't wait to see what's in store for them for the future. Seriously! Missed them at BOA, but wow that was a ride! If they can get their performance level to match the show design, this will be one to look out for. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LeanderMomma Posted November 5, 2018 Report Share Posted November 5, 2018 And Alexander was fantastic.I'm sure the staff is disappointed that my daughter and I aren't there today. They sat beside us Saturday and got quite the charge out of seeing me and my kiddo crying from the emotion out of their show. It was awesome. Edit....I’m sure they didn’t actually miss us, but it was amusing at the time. jcbg and KayCooks17 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jcbg Posted November 5, 2018 Report Share Posted November 5, 2018 That drill by Leander is insane. And insanely good. Wow. EDIT: That may be the best performance I've seen so far (haven't seen Marcus so I can't judge based on them, but) right up there with TWHS LeanderMomma 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gregorydf01 Posted November 5, 2018 Report Share Posted November 5, 2018 That drill by Leander is insane. And insanely good. Wow. I Love Leander! They are so good! Question for those in the dome, can't hear the Solo's well streaming, is it better in the dome? Don't know if it's the audio setup for streaming or something else.

TRBbaritone Posted November 5, 2018 Report Share Posted November 5, 2018 Just saw Leander and they were ON FIRE. Couldn’t take my eyes off of the guard. Took a few clips to show my students for motivation. LeanderMomma and LHSax 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
