In that case, I hope that you and others in the concensus contact UIL and let them know that txbands forum contributors felt that the judging in the morning was too harsh.

Origin Posted November 4, 2023 Report Share Posted November 4, 2023 Would love to see TWHS win the visual caption here. Super clean marching and the guard blows everyone else out of the water. I love the effect of having one leg black and the other yellow. That last flag feature was incredibly clean. There is still a level of musical precision that they have yet to unlock with this show, though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Simply incredible. close!! i would still prob give it to Avon 2019, they move just a bit better and have denser spinning phrases. but the top to bottom high cam depth of tw's guard is pretty mind boggling!! stellar run from them. im biased but that was by far the cleanest vis show ive seen at this contest from upstairs. super duper effective too. ironically the weakest parts musically for me are the small ensemble and soloist parts, weird instrumentation too. 1st trumpets still struggling w/ intervals in the ballad a little, but it's rather challenging.

Popular Post Miyazuu Posted November 4, 2023 Popular Post Report Share Posted November 4, 2023 Box5s camera work is genuinely so bad 💀 As someone who's watching live and peeking at the screen here and there it's absolutely crazy how much they just don't film and instead focus on some random spot in the field.

Avon 2019 was sloppy at Grand Nats finals, lots of drops, but yes the phrasing was hard. Woodlands have the superior cleanliness matched to the demand. Having seen both shows live. I was truly left speechless when the woodlands ended with that flag feature. packwick and Hard Core Band Fan 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Band2021 Posted November 4, 2023 Report Share Posted November 4, 2023 At this point finals is hard to predict for either panel 1 or 2. I would say that most of the previous finalists performed very strong these past 2 days so I am not to sure where everyone will land.

GeekBoy54 Posted November 4, 2023 Report Share Posted November 4, 2023 Despite a lower number of participants compared to the last couple of years, the competition was still incredibly tough. Vandegrift, The Woodlands, Marcus, Rouse, Ronald Reagan, Vista Ridge, Round Rock, Cedar Ridge, and Bridgeland are all solidly in finals. I kept thinking over and over again about predicting who's getting those last spots, and I've decided I'm not going to do it. Because I can't. A lot of the bubble bands have been on fire and I honestly think it is anyone's game. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
