PercussionDad Posted October 11, 2023 Report Share Posted October 11, 2023 It’s going to be tough. Going on so early may not help either. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They beat Lake Ridge at Mansfield a couple weeks ago and have a really strong music program. Berkner's low placement last year was due to their closer being very dirty. They likely would have made finals if they were visually cleaner. I haven't seen any videos of them this year, and the contest is more stacked than last year, so it's hard to predict where they'll end up.

Popular Post Tubalord11 Posted October 13, 2023 Popular Post Report Share Posted October 13, 2023 Just wanted to give a final good luck to all the bands competing at the super stacked comp! If you want a performance in the evening show, you have to give it your all, because even for some bands that are consistent finalist at other comps, a not so good run will not make it to finals, so everyone go out there and get you some!!!

Between BOA DFW and BOA Prosper…. It’s definitely a time to go all out. There won’t be a finalist spot that isnt earned and will likely be 5-6 bands that would have made finals at almost any other BOA event (minus DFW) Hope everyone runs their best and best of luck to all of those going to Region after prelims tomorrow!

BandFanForever Posted October 14, 2023 Report Share Posted October 14, 2023 I'm so nervous! Our kids fielded the rest of their show today, and it's really complicated, so it's going to be a big test for them tomorrow. And they have their prelims performance during the eclipse. That could either be epically cool or a total train wreck depending on the lighting situation. If it gets too dark and there aren't lights, the kids won't be able to see and neither will the judges and the whole situation could be a huge distraction. Eek! On pins and needles already. Good luck to everyone!!! Gehrig4 and Tubalord11 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post A_Person Posted October 14, 2023 Popular Post Report Share Posted October 14, 2023 On 10/9/2023 at 11:32 AM, JWork said: I feel like Duncanville has been dipping their toes into the BOA world with their style of shows. I got very BOA vibes from their show last year with the props and uniforms. I feel their main focus still is UIL but they are trying their shot at BOA with their content. I haven't watched their show this year but based on last year I feel they definitely want a better ranking at this BOA comp, and honestly, they might surprise everyone. oh my god. took me forever to figure out how to post on here but as a current Duncanville high school band member i can say that we are slowly going towards a more show and flashy style then our traditional methods and finally having new uniforms often then the constant blue and whites. I still love them though. I'm looking forward to how it will turn out tomorrow we will try our best, me included. I'll be playing my heart out tomorrow on the trumpet and all our features. we'll do our best to put on a good show with Tag Team BandFanForever, JulietPapa, Tubalord11 and 1 other 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tubalord11 Posted October 14, 2023 Report Share Posted October 14, 2023 Good morning everyone! We are here live at Children’s Health Stadium in Prosper! It’s a perfect 53 degrees for an amazing day of marching band! Cant wait to see all these amazing programs today!

Tubalord11 Posted October 14, 2023 Report Share Posted October 14, 2023 The amount of growth between Wylie and now for Lovejoy is so much! I mean they did not let this early morning performance bring them down, and I’d be very surprised if they weren’t our AA champions, just a wonderful performance, great job Lovejoy!

Tubalord11 Posted October 14, 2023 Report Share Posted October 14, 2023 Such a fun show from Poteet! Love the sax soloist during the come together section. It’s definitely more of a UIL show, but some good ensemble sounds, very beautiful ballad and great soloist, great job Poteet! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tubalord11 Posted October 14, 2023 Report Share Posted October 14, 2023 What a wonderful show from Walnut Grove! Another band that has improved so much, I see why they did so well at McKinney! Love the musical selections, and that guard is so good! Cant wait to see where this program goes in the coming years! Great job WG!

CosmicLimbo Posted October 14, 2023 Report Share Posted October 14, 2023 Lovely stuff from Southlake Carroll. The color palette is super satisfying to look at and the chariot (I think that’s what you call it?) is simply chefs kiss. Also, the flute soloist at the beginning was wonderful and really blew me away! Tubalord11 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tubalord11 Posted October 14, 2023 Report Share Posted October 14, 2023 Wow SLC, What a beautiful performance! Amazing visual moment at the beginning, soloist were incredible throughout, and each member really amplifies the GE with their emotion! Really loved that show a lot, and that percussion killed their feature, amazing job SLC! JFNDOWBFAN 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JFNDOWBFAN Posted October 14, 2023 Report Share Posted October 14, 2023 Questions for BOA experts. We are headed out today. But for future reference, are the live feeds worth the cost? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’d only get the pro pass if you’re planning on watching a comp every weekend, but yes definitely worth it imo!

Tubalord11 Posted October 14, 2023 Report Share Posted October 14, 2023 What a fun show from Berkner! I see why they won Mansfield only of music, because those kids sounds great! Really mature ensemble sound, great visual GE, and those soloist did wonderful (loved the tuba one a lot)! Wouldn’t be surprised if they make the night show, great job Berkner!

Tubalord11 Posted October 14, 2023 Report Share Posted October 14, 2023 Such a fun show from Sachse! That basson soloist is such a treat to listen to! A little bit of dirt in the ensemble sound at times, but it was very good for the most part! Really good moments from the guard and that percussion was heard! GL to them at the Birdville comp, and amazing job Sachse! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tubalord11 Posted October 14, 2023 Report Share Posted October 14, 2023 Wow Duncanville, just wow! Such a rich brass ensemble sound, amazing soloist, and that guard is TOP NOCH! I do wish that they conveyed the theme a little more visually, musically it was there, but still just such beautiful and powerful ensemble sound, excited to see where they land today. Amazing job Duncanville! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
