It's beyond disappointing that I can't easily show my family / friends some of the greatest shows of all time unless I can somehow magically find them on YouTube. It definitely sucks that's it's hard to rewatch shows. I think the issue is that some bands and Box5 are quick to give you a copystrike on their videos. My partner regularly records and will post but due to copystrike stuff being issued by a band they're gonna have to hold off on it lol.

Popular Post Miyazuu Posted November 5, 2023 Popular Post Report Share Posted November 5, 2023 That tuba/trombone solo is absolutely insane. The talent is crazy and he plays so effortlessly on both instruments. It's been my favorite soloist to watch this season.

I love the contrast between the more restrained and stately passages and the ones where the emotion runs more freely. Beautiful visual program, too. I love the overall aesthetic.

Tubalord11 Posted November 5, 2023 Report Share Posted November 5, 2023 It's actually insane what Wakeland has been able to do this year.... THAT DRILL IS SO HARD YET SO CLEAN!!! I don't understand how they make the arrows/curve forms SO EASY to do!!! Not to mention that incredible brass line... wow Wakeland, just wow. Percussion is amazing as always, soloist killed it, I think I personally have them slightly edging out Leander, but it will be close. Just amazed year in and out and what this program is able to do, amazing job Wakeland, and welcome back to finals for the first time since 2015!! Band Dad 2021 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GeekBoy54 Posted November 5, 2023 Report Share Posted November 5, 2023 It's always nice to see someone make finals at this contest after a long time. The last time Wakeland was in San Antonio finals was in 2015. I think the only streak longer than that which was eventually broken was the 10 year non-finals streak for Cypress Falls from 2006-2015 ChristopherRoden and Tubalord11 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

northtexasshawty Posted November 5, 2023 Report Share Posted November 5, 2023 What happened at Cedar Ridge this year? from 3rd at stare and making finals at BOASA last year to not making state or finals at BOASA this year?

A bunch of bands got sick and so they brought in wakeland as a place holder! No, that's not what happened. There was major flooding in the Austin-Metro area during BOA San Antonio 2015 which forced a couple of bands (Leander, Dripping Springs, Hendrickson) to drop out of the contest because Music for All couldn't fit a rescheduled time for them in the schedule. I'm still mad about that because Leander really could've won the whole thing if the weather didn't happen. clarinote, CloudFuel and Bdc22 2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post CloudFuel Posted November 5, 2023 Popular Post Report Share Posted November 5, 2023 The meteoric rise of Bridgeland is beyond impressive. At this rate, I wouldn't be surprised to see them challenging for a BOASA trophy within the next few years. 😎 bassfunction, Displayed name, peshbandkid and 3 others 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
