Popular Post slowbrass Posted November 13, 2021 Popular Post Report Share Posted November 13, 2021 I just don’t like BA this season, almost feels like a parody of the typical Cartwright show. And it sucks that Texas bands have a rep for being bad at visual when the only difference between BA and a group like CTJ/Vandy etc is that they don’t have 50 props and 200 color guard members filling the field.

Argh! Yeah, Cartwright does have a pretty formulaic approach to design, at least the core visual program, although he changes up the themes in interesting, sometimes weird ways. Despite my own preference for new things, I still find the shows very effective. slowbrass and Hard Core Band Fan 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Amazing I presume My friend mentioned mic issues and kids running to get set after the preshow had already started, which isn't a great look. But besides that, a very good performance.

TxTrpt Posted November 13, 2021 Report Share Posted November 13, 2021 Some thoughts after seeing the middle block in person: BA is the one to beat. Avon was solid. Blue Springs will make finals. Reagan had their best run yet. I have William Mason and Castle over Round Rock. CTJ is the top Texas band so far* (*Marcus and Flower Mound in last block) Tubalord11 and Hard Core Band Fan 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If Norwin could play in tune with good fundamental tone quality it would be a contest, but alas. Oh they sure did both today. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BandFan59 Posted November 13, 2021 Report Share Posted November 13, 2021 The finals draw board was posted to the HornRank forums. It looks like Claudia Taylor Johnson will be the last band to perform in finals assuming they are able to get top 6 like many expect them to, which bodes well for their medal chances! Flower Mound will be right before them as well. Tubalord11 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
