Popular Post Rubisco Posted November 13, 2021 Popular Post Report Share Posted November 13, 2021 Very happy for The Woodlands and Marcus. Nice to see them both back in the top half. I guess technically Marcus never really left it, but the fact that they're able to hold on like this after Drinkwater left is fantastic.

Popular Post A Testing Trumpet Posted November 13, 2021 Popular Post Report Share Posted November 13, 2021 Results weren't particularly surprising to me, with how stacked the bubble was. That being said, as alumnus of Round Rock, I really feel for them. Tubalord11, CLJ, LeanderMomma and 1 other 3 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And now you know why they were. They got second, in contention for 1st. Beating all the Texas Bands. 🤷♂️ I was pointing out BA’s Musical issues and as we see they didn’t win Music.

BandFan59 Posted November 13, 2021 Report Share Posted November 13, 2021 Sad to see CTJ in the bottom six of finals. I think this is the strongest show they've taken to nationals and was really pulling for them to grab a medal here. It looks like Team Texas may be coming home without a medal this year, but Flower Mound's performance time puts them in a great spot to potentially sneak into the top 3.

vincentlee1220 Posted November 13, 2021 Report Share Posted November 13, 2021 Super proud alum of vista ridge. Wasn't really a big fan of the design this year but the level of execution has been nuts, not to mention they're literally writing program history. Congrats all and best of luck in finals! anon54 and Samuel Culper 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rubisco Posted November 13, 2021 Report Share Posted November 13, 2021 Personally, watching earlier versions of the shows, I'm going to guess that at least 2nd to 5th place are reasonably close to each other score-wise. There's a possibility of some "upsets", if you can call them that. I guess we already got one with Dobyns-Bennett beating Blue Springs, but the gap in performance times in semis between those two was significant.

Tubalord11 Posted November 13, 2021 Report Share Posted November 13, 2021 My biggest shock is DB… my friend and I saw this show live and although they are very good, we felt board the whole time. Obviously the judges don’t judge on that, but Round Rock was way better In our opinion, but still happy for them. Good luck to everyone tonight! Bring us back Kevin!

Rubisco Posted November 14, 2021 Report Share Posted November 14, 2021 Marcus overcame a nearly 3 point gap to top CTJ (and maybe The Woodlands, too) to break the top 6 at Nats after semis. Only one week difference. Another clear example of why you can't really predict Nats using San Antonio placements. It ain't over 'til it's over! brassdragon 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post Origin Posted November 14, 2021 Popular Post Report Share Posted November 14, 2021 So proud of the piccolo and bass clarinet players for nailing that duet after having trouble last week!

Maestropera Posted November 14, 2021 Report Share Posted November 14, 2021 I chuckled a little at one moment of Reagan’s show - which other program can have the band clear the field and let the color guard have a moment?! Such a cool thing that is quite unique to their program! LoVeTxBand and stellamo 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Origin Posted November 14, 2021 Report Share Posted November 14, 2021 I love the direction Dobyns-Bennett has gone in this year. The show kindof reminds me of Round Rock 2015. Visually the show is stunning!! I love the striking colors. Compared to Reagan, the brass is noticeably crass, but they’re playing with so much emotion! The choir is a perfect choice…it just adds the right emotion. Beautiful show. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BandFan59 Posted November 14, 2021 Report Share Posted November 14, 2021 The choral moments in Dobyns-Bennett's show were brilliant. Loved the ending with the entire band singing together! Great show! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BandFan59 Posted November 14, 2021 Report Share Posted November 14, 2021 Excellent performance by Vista Ridge. The brass was absolutely fantastic the entire show and I love the commitment of every member to the show! The guard does need a bit more development but Vista Ridge will be a mainstay in the BOA world for years to come. vincentlee1220 and anon54 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PLC137 Posted November 14, 2021 Report Share Posted November 14, 2021 Vista’s show this year certainly did have balls. And blue ones at that. Joking aside, I that seemed like their best run in weeks. I hope to keep seeing them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
