I’m so happy to hear they had a great run! Was definitely imo their best comp run, much improved Volume wise and not any big mess ups, weather was definitely much better for them here than the almost 100 at Wylie Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CosmicLimbo Posted October 14, 2023 Report Share Posted October 14, 2023 Thoroughly enjoyed that first block. Loved Berkner’s themes and their woodwinds were throwing down! The Bassoonist from Sachse was so cool and the smoke during the 1812 Overture was a nice touch as well.

CosmicLimbo Posted October 14, 2023 Report Share Posted October 14, 2023 And Duncanville! Brass ensemble sound and volume was top notch and definitely woke me up! Uniforms create a nice visual effect and the way the guard took up the field during the Team ballad was such a cool moment. Great job!

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!!! It’s gonna be fine. The eclipse will feel more like a dusk. Not darkness. Also- that closer is about to put people on notice. October surprise!

Tubalord11 Posted October 14, 2023 Report Share Posted October 14, 2023 Watching Wakeland is like watching a drum core….I’m speechless right now! Such powerful, rich yet controlled sounds, incredible soloist, and that visual package is no joke, they are here to defend their win, and I think they probably will. I mean wow Wakeland, can’t wait to see them again tonight! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tubalord11 Posted October 14, 2023 Report Share Posted October 14, 2023 Another great and very entertaining show from Waxahachie! As someone who watched Yellowstone, it was very nice hearing it at the beginning! Very beautiful ensemble sound, great marching, and I loved the high amount of GE, especially the “Boom” when they find the gold at the end! Just a great show all around! Wonderful job Waxahachie!

Tubalord11 Posted October 14, 2023 Report Share Posted October 14, 2023 That Keller brass is UNREAL!!! The current winners in my eyes right now, I mean what a sound! They’ve improved so much since HEB, and are here to get their first boa win! I’d very surprised if they don’t make finals at nats this year, because that is one killer show! Wow wow wow, amazing job Keller! JulietPapa 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Origin Posted October 14, 2023 Report Share Posted October 14, 2023 LOVE Keller’s closer, that’s how a Mahler 2 show should end. So so difficult with all that technical playing and tempo changes on the move. Very beautiful throughout, and still with room to grow.

But for future reference, are the live feeds worth the cost? It is if you're hundreds of miles from any of the competitions! Live is always better, but it's less expensive than going even just a few of the competitions. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tubalord11 Posted October 14, 2023 Report Share Posted October 14, 2023 Such a cute show from Highland Park! Love the uniforms, and the elevator prop is so cool! I feel like they need to have a bit more serious themes to really compete well, especially now that they are 6A, but they look and sound great! Guard was very clean, and the sax soloist in the ballad was incredible. Great job Highlander band! VinoGirl 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tubalord11 Posted October 14, 2023 Report Share Posted October 14, 2023 Great performance from Fossil Ridge! They have come so far, and could see them defiantly being a dark horse at area next weekend. Great soloist, amazing percussion as always, and great sounds all around. Needs some work but they are really good, great job Fossil Ridge! BandFanForever and Gehrig4 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Origin Posted October 14, 2023 Report Share Posted October 14, 2023 Prosper was really great. Love how big the show feels visually. Kinda disappointed that the show is literally Broken Arrow 2019 with some different music. Tubalord11 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tubalord11 Posted October 14, 2023 Report Share Posted October 14, 2023 Hello there Prosper!!! That is one mighty big sound (pun intended)!!! That opening hit was so powerful, wonderful soloist throughout, guard was great, I mean holy cow they killed it! I could easily see them medaling here, but the sky is the limit for them this year! Just amazing work all around, great job Prosper Eagle band! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tubalord11 Posted October 14, 2023 Report Share Posted October 14, 2023 Very strong performance from McKinney Boyd! Love the clarinet soloist in the ballad, just such a professional sound, great ensemble sounds, and that percussion is incredible. I think they may struggle a little in the GE department, but I think their cleanliness alone should be enough to get them into finals, we’ll see. Great job Mckinney Boyd!

Tubalord11 Posted October 14, 2023 Report Share Posted October 14, 2023 Great performance from McKinney! That guard is stellar, and I love their musical selections! Amazing soloist, really good playing and they look really good. I definitely think they will make finals and I may be crazy, but maybe state at area this year, it’s a great show and they are performing it very well. Great job Mckinney!
