1998-2018 Posted October 14, 2018 Report Share Posted October 14, 2018 Would be cool to see a regional at AT&T Stadium in Arlington in the future! The acoustics there are awful, it would cost $25+ to park and another $25+ for a hotdog with a drink. Plus the interest charges on the payment plan for the high dollar General Admission One Day Season Ticket Plan Jerry would dream up. No thank you.

Dog885 Posted October 14, 2018 Report Share Posted October 14, 2018 Wow! I completely forgot to mention that the Flo giant mic stand nearly fell on my board during our ballad! Apparently it hit our tech's foot which stopped it from hitting me. It was terrifying though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MadisonBandMan1 Posted October 14, 2018 Report Share Posted October 14, 2018 Congrats! Tear it up. Hope I get there in time to see the performance. Oh yeah, we killed it. We had the run of our lives and increased our score by over 2 points in finals, closing the four point gap between us and John b Alexander a bit. It was awesome. Oh, and do I mention this? Hendrickson. Is. Amazing. LeanderMomma 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rudedog34 Posted October 14, 2018 Report Share Posted October 14, 2018 That was also our best run of the season. Madison did kill it. Got there just in time to catch your show. Surprised ya'll didn't get more captions. That must have been a fun competition. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BandL0v3r Posted October 14, 2018 Report Share Posted October 14, 2018 I didn't get to see Round Rock yesterday. To anyone who did see them, how did they do in Waco? Have they improved much since BOA Austin? How are they looking for BOA San Antonio? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Have they improved much since BOA Austin? How are they looking for BOA San Antonio? I wasn't there yesterday. I heard they didn't use their props. They also have more to add than what they've already put out there, so I think at this point it's still hard to tell. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post principalagent Posted October 14, 2018 Popular Post Report Share Posted October 14, 2018 Anderson was definitely much improved from last year! Danpod, CatOfSachse, bandperson1997 and 1 other 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bandperson1997 Posted October 14, 2018 Report Share Posted October 14, 2018 Anderson was definitely much improved from last year! I agree! They might not be as good as they were in 2010-2014 but this was a step in the right direction. I thought their baritone soloist was one of the best solos of the *very short* day.

Dog885 Posted October 14, 2018 Report Share Posted October 14, 2018 Wow, you’re kidding?! Nope! There is definitely not a video of the multicam where you can hear the plastic bag around the mic moving around and then when it hit the ground.

They did perform their whole show at Austin. I heard they didn't have time to clean. I didn't mean they had more drill to add. They just haven't added all the bells and whistles.

texkathi Posted October 15, 2018 Report Share Posted October 15, 2018 Dripping Springs was just starting to warm up when the announcement came that they were cancelling. The directors checked w/ a couple of other contests, to see if the band could march an exhibition there, but nearly all the other contests had gotten a late start, so didn't have any room. So, the first time the DS band Freshman will march at BOA show will be at St. Louis at the SuperRegional- THAT might be a bit intimidating, but I think the kids are up to it. They were really great Saturday. Had gotten up at early, at band hall by 5:30, then had a rehearsal at Belton, then on to Waco. Back on the buses and back home. What a rotten day.We had some of the kids over to our home that night to watch the Orlando finals. Some really fine bands there- I'd love to see Tarpon Springs without all the electronics. Their kids play really, really well, don't think they need all that. It was very entertaining, but maybe a little too "3-ring circus" at times.

Dog885 Posted October 16, 2018 Report Share Posted October 16, 2018 Hey, you could argue that none of our predictions were wrong? We should just ask all 9 bands for their scores and use those and see how messed up everyone's points would be. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
aaron067 Posted October 16, 2018 Report Share Posted October 16, 2018 I can share that the last band to perform was the highest score of the morning. Unfortunately, not even the directors of participating bands know their own scores for specific captions. BOA is incredibly tight lipped.

principalagent Posted October 16, 2018 Report Share Posted October 16, 2018 Really? That's quite interesting to see that they beat a certain other band. I’m not surprised. One band is on the rise, the other is figuring things out and also didn’t get to perform in ideal circumstances (props, etc).

LostChoirGuy Posted October 16, 2018 Report Share Posted October 16, 2018 Having watched the performances, that doesnt surprise me, though I'm not sure where you are getting that information. Bandwoww 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
aaron067 Posted October 16, 2018 Report Share Posted October 16, 2018 I could reveal my source, but I'm pretty sure my head would end up on a platter. I just wanted to shed a bit of light since everyone was curious. Also, that band had its own set of issues that day. All sound effects and an entire synth part were missing due to some hinky electronics issue. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
