RenMacnary Posted November 3, 2019 Report Share Posted November 3, 2019 Tuning seems to be an issue in multiple bands tonight. Given no environmental issues being indoors, wondering why? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Band_dad_of_2 Posted November 3, 2019 Report Share Posted November 3, 2019 Maybe it's just me but the Bell show, while visually stunning, doesn't have enough of the full band playing. A lot of features and solos. Their flags, though....man...amazing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LostChoirGuy Posted November 3, 2019 Report Share Posted November 3, 2019 Maybe it was the curse of following The Woodlands and Flower Mound, but I didnt enjoy LD Bell as much this evening. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
A Testing Trumpet Posted November 3, 2019 Report Share Posted November 3, 2019 Tuning seems to be an issue in multiple bands tonight. Given no environmental issues being indoors, wondering why? It's probably decently cold in the warm up area; and then the wait to perform can mess with tuning further. By the time you're on the field, your instrument (especially brass) can have significant changes to the sound. You can mitigate it by blowing warm air into the instrument, but there will still be some impact. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Seems to be the low brass, which would further support the theory given the length of time needed to warm up the instrument. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post BandFan59 Posted November 3, 2019 Popular Post Report Share Posted November 3, 2019 I think this is the year Reagan finally takes San Antonio. This show is so incredible in every way. Visually stunning and musically powerful, and they do this all without any props. If they went to Grand Nats this year, this show would be top 3 guaranteed.

jmartin1056 Posted November 3, 2019 Report Share Posted November 3, 2019 Avon is lucky. Avon would be fine. Everyone thought in 2017 that Avon wouldn't be able to compete with the elites of Texas yet they won visual and were .22 from 2nd. I do think Reagan would be a lock for top 3, but anything is possible on any given day. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hard Core Band Fan Posted November 3, 2019 Report Share Posted November 3, 2019 Marcus' oboe soloist is incredible for a high school kid. Such a mature sound and such control, especially in the high range. Their trumpet soloist, the small ensemble, and entire ensemble is so musical!

principalagent Posted November 3, 2019 Report Share Posted November 3, 2019 Welcome back to the top half Marcus!! We missed you! One great thing about Marcus since 2017 is that they’re really presenting their LIGHTS OUT percussion section tons more. Super happy to hear more from them.
