Fwguard17 Posted November 5, 2022 Report Share Posted November 5, 2022 5 minutes ago, MikeKyu said: While I agree with the sentiment here and would love to see a semi-finals I just do not see a way that it would be a sound investment for the schools nor a fair representation of BOA when considering all of the other Super Regionals. It's tough here. Relish this. It is making every band better. Maybe one day Texas will produce a band that can hang with the bottom half of Indiana schools (tongue firmly in cheek) . I agree with this in principle, but I would say that San Antonio has always set the pace for BOA. It WAS the first Super Regional after-all. Why NOT the first SUPER-Super Regional?

They sounded and looked incredible, with such great sounds and such an entreating show!

packwick Posted November 5, 2022 Report Share Posted November 5, 2022 forgot to say how impressed i was w/ Forney for tackling the Hindemith symphony on the field. talk about a challenge. big big biiig sounds too for what looked like a smaller band. also had to do another WGI guard look up for them. hahaha. batteryischarged 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

batteryischarged Posted November 5, 2022 Report Share Posted November 5, 2022 With Marcus coming up next and probably a sure thing for Finals, of the last seven bands that have been on, anyone feel that one of those could make finals? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's a trick question. We all know the answer in None. These are inferior shows that are played at a level that would not allow entry into the State of Indiana. Samuel Culper and Vidal28 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post CloudFuel Posted November 5, 2022 Popular Post Report Share Posted November 5, 2022 Randomly stumbled across this forum today & so thankful that I did. I thought all discussions nowadays had moved over to the likes of Facebook & Discord, so was pleasantly surprised to find such an active, passionate, & articulate group of folks here! As an old band-head with a young kiddo experiencing his first BOA SA SR competition this weekend, I'm truly in awe at just how many incredible programs are in attendance. I can't even begin to imagine just how difficult of a job it must be for the judging panels to accurately & fairly rank 80+ bands over the course of 2 days. It certainly seems like a 3rd day with Semi-Finals & Finals could be warranted (if only that were feasible)! Looking forward to the remaining prelim performances + what is likely to be a night of jam-packed action and sheer brilliance. Regardless of the results, I hope that everyone walks away feeling supremely proud of their efforts and knowing that their hard work is absolutely appreciated!

Bell Cy-Fair Pearland S7 Cypress Woods?  Coppell is my only lock, but Marcus Hebron and the Woodlands are also locks assuming they do how they always do  batteryischarged 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LostChoirGuy Posted November 5, 2022 Report Share Posted November 5, 2022 I've only seen the last 4 or 5 groups, but of those, I think Cy Fair is in the thick of the finals race and I think Sachse and Forney were right up with a lot of the other bubble groups, though I don't think they will have enough to make it in. batteryischarged 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tubalord11 Posted November 5, 2022 Report Share Posted November 5, 2022 Marcus: WOW WOW WOW WOW WOW!!! They are still the Marcu Concert Marching band!!!

Recordings of most bands from the stands are already on YouTube, but if you want the Box5 feed, wait until the contest is over and there's bound to be someone with a Google Drive folder with all the finalists.
