LeanderMomma Posted September 11, 2019 Report Share Posted September 11, 2019 They sound amazing!. I wish I could have seen the entire band. Please, please TxBand members. When shooting vids or photos of your favorite band with a phone: portrait is for social media sites. Landscape is for true video. Most new phones come with a wide angle setting as well. Set it, rotate and get the whole picture. Sorry...I digress... Thanks for posting Momma I need you to help me with my vlogging efforts this fall.

DeepEllum Posted September 11, 2019 Report Share Posted September 11, 2019 Dang I hear so much Drum Corps in Hebron's show! Who is their designer?!! They actually sound like a drum corps too! The last few years they still had a characteristic high school band sound and music design, but not this year! I think Michael Martin arranges all their music and I’m fairly sure he’s with the Cavaliers Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DeepEllum Posted September 11, 2019 Report Share Posted September 11, 2019 I’ve seen Hebron’s show once this year at their opening game, their drill wasn’t finished yet but it looked difficult yet readable, so here’s to hoping their visuals are finally near where their music has been.

LeanderMomma Posted September 11, 2019 Report Share Posted September 11, 2019 GPISD Festival, McNeese Showdown at Sundown, and USBands Spring I believe Just saw that Lumberton was recently added to BOA Houston! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
J-Mike16 Posted September 11, 2019 Report Share Posted September 11, 2019 Just saw that Lumberton was recently added to BOA Houston! how? They are scheduled for Galena Park festival that day. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
J-Mike16 Posted September 11, 2019 Report Share Posted September 11, 2019 I wonder if Lumberton is doing 2 competitions in 1 day? They do perform at 5pm (3rd from last) at Galena Park but they aren't on the schedule for BOA Houston. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TWHSParent Posted September 11, 2019 Report Share Posted September 11, 2019 If they are added to Houston, they would go off at 6:45 am as the first band of the day. Edited to add - unless someone drops, and if dropped early enough they would shift everyone prior 15 minutes later and slot them in at 7:00am.

J-Mike16 Posted September 11, 2019 Report Share Posted September 11, 2019 If they are added to Houston, they would go off at 6:45 am as the first band of the day. omg! that is so early! and Lumberton is about 2 hours from Houston and about 2 1/2 hours from Katy so I don't know if that could happen bc the band would have to wake up at like 2 or 3am.

I know. The schedule is completely full (34 bands), and currently Magnolia is the first band off at 7:00am. BOA will move the currently enrolled bands back when/if they add another one.

LeanderMomma Posted September 11, 2019 Report Share Posted September 11, 2019 I didn't mean to cause a commotion! I just saw on the HornRank forum early this morning that Lumberton had been added to BOA Houston. Perhaps it was a mistake? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LeanderMomma Posted September 11, 2019 Report Share Posted September 11, 2019 Sounds like Lumberton was perhaps initially on the "waiting list" for BOA Houston, but there isn't room for them at this time. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SpartanBandAlum Posted September 11, 2019 Report Share Posted September 11, 2019 I wonder if Lumberton is doing 2 competitions in 1 day? They do perform at 5pm (3rd from last) at Galena Park but they aren't on the schedule for BOA Houston. Porter’s doing something similar with USBands and Galena Park that day, so it could be a possibility? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LeanderMomma Posted September 11, 2019 Report Share Posted September 11, 2019 The MFA site definitely does not list Lumberton on the prelims schedule (as of 8/30/19), so unless someone pulls out of that competition, Lumberton doesn't have a prelims spot. There is still plenty of time however for that to change! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LeanderMomma Posted September 11, 2019 Report Share Posted September 11, 2019 I have a feeling DCI kind of stuff is gonna show up in a lot of shows this year. I can't wait! Already ordered my tickets for Austin, Houston and San Antonio. Just out of curiosity I started an "order" for tickets for BOA Austin. The website wanted $31 for a full day pass PLUS $7 in fees! Uhhhh...NO. I'll just get in line early that morning and NOT pay any extra fees. That's crazy. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Imagine Posted September 11, 2019 Report Share Posted September 11, 2019 With regard to the Marcus show from 2015--there are very few shows from 2015 out there on Youtube because that was the year that BOA and copyrighters went head to head over BOA selling videos from competitions. No videos were sold that year and BOA aggressively went after videos posted online after the competitions. FloMarching started up the next year, I think? But that year people who didn't go to BOA San Antonio or Grand Nats were basically out of luck if they were hoping to see a show online. justabandkid94 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
natertater21000 Posted September 12, 2019 Report Share Posted September 12, 2019 That's why I'm glad I have screen captures of leander, Cedar park, flomo, Hebron, reagan and ctj from 2015 on my lap top. Whish I would have known it'd be this hard to find them later. I would have saved them all. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LeanderMomma Posted September 12, 2019 Report Share Posted September 12, 2019 You can find more professional videos of CP on their Smugmug. Here is the link to our run last Friday: https://cphsband.smugmug.com/2019-2020-School-Year/Video-Cedar-Ridge-9-6-19 I’m really excited to see this show live.

lost Posted September 12, 2019 Report Share Posted September 12, 2019 I think Cedar Park struggled from some of its contests being cancelled and not having that feedback to lean on but I’m sure they’re going to rock everyone’s sock off come State and SA this year bandtingz 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bladezz Posted September 12, 2019 Report Share Posted September 12, 2019 I can't talk about what Hebron has to offer, but if you thought that their last Grand Nats show was amazing....... just wait. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TWHSParent Posted September 12, 2019 Report Share Posted September 12, 2019 I can't talk about what Hebron has to offer, but if you thought that their last Grand Nats show was amazing....... just wait. We have at least been able to hear the first few minutes via a football broadcast, and yes, it does sound like they are doing amazing things.

Popular Post bandtingz Posted September 12, 2019 Popular Post Report Share Posted September 12, 2019 I’m really excited to see this show live. My gut says Cedar Park is BACK! Thank you so much! We have been rehearsing and working very well this year, so we're hoping it pays off. Last season, GE took us out of SA Finals, so the show design and every detail of the show has been upped to the max. I really hope we can return to finals alongside our fellow LISD bands!

I heard a recording of the show but no video, amazing stuff and looking forward to seeing as well as hearing it. I agree with others that have posted the same that Hebron stands a good chance at the Eagle this year! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Love the show this year (what I have seen so far)! Looking forward to at least 4 LISD South Bands in Finals at San Antonio this year!
