They’ll be performing at a non-BOA event on Saturday. As in their musical package, I’m not really sure what’s going on with their music this year, I’m just hoping they can clean it up. I could see Cy-fair placing ahead of Pearland into the 4th place spot like they did last year but I’ve got those top 3 spots locked up, although another rouse would be a nice surprise maybe by Pearland or cy-fair for one of those top 3 spots. i hope a vid from that non-BOA event leaks!!! i wanna finally hear em! may need to retrench my expectations for them lol.

But they've all judged in Texas the past 20 years... I'm so confused..." 😂 I still need to see a more recent video of Johnson and Reagan, with all the costumes and whatnot. I'm also still wondering if Pearland or some other band can sneak into the top 3 here, like a Rouse-style upset. That would be really cool. It's about time for Houston to dominate at their own regional! stay confused, hon! STAY CONFUSED!!! jk. no, i just totally f***** that up. it should read regionals that ive been paying attention to LOL.

TigerJ948 Posted September 28, 2023 Report Share Posted September 28, 2023 I'm excited to see how Katy High will stack up in such a loaded field. Making the top half would be awesome, but that's a big ask considering the field. It's gonna be fun to watch all of the great bands performing right in our backyard. I think folks will enjoy our show, if nothing else. Gershwin, Ticheli, Bonnie Tyler, Ace of Base...what's not to like, hah!

I think they are in a good position, I just think last year a lot of bands that did really good that previous year happened to not do very well at this, cy-falls jumped from 15-26th, which is one example, either way, it’s a new year, Katy is going to do amazing.

packwick Posted October 1, 2023 Report Share Posted October 1, 2023 aaaaand just like that Cy Fair became a likely lock for the top half at this contest. gonna be interesting to see what a different panel at Katy thinks about the bands at Conroe which were all pretty close in score. stiilll not quite sure who id have on top here. been a season of surprises (ish) so far in TX. Pearland upset??? that'd be fun!! every time twhs comes out imma think of Nic Cage in The Wicker Man. "Not the bees!!! Arrrrghhh!!!" still needs some cleeeeaning in first half, not sure the bee/Pikachu costumes are doing them favors, can't tell how those woodwind blocks are supposed to come together after the jazz running + not totally in the pocket rhythmically. very hard show, hasn't been this tough since 2019, may leave an opening near the top at Katy.

LOL i love this typo!!! i think twhs maybe has winning content/design, i don't know if they'll have winning perf (besides guard) by this Sat. they also need to figure out how they'll get 6 mins on the field to avoid a penalty lol. i think this is a good opportunity for them to retool the ballad a little bit into something more goosebumpy, also to let it breathe more, add 15 secs or whatever, sounds like they're rushing through it and trying to get it over with right now lol. youre supposed to be judged on the quality of what is presented, not the length, at least that's the way it's done in wgi, thinking prob the same for BOA based on Marcus 2011. hope B-land finds their way into finals and the top half!!! what other ppl have been saying about their music has me a little freaked out tho!! cywoods, 7L, and Foster will have to be a little cleaner than yesterday to top Dawson here methinks. actually i recall thinking Foster and cywoods were a little underscored in finals, we'll see.

BandLOL Posted October 4, 2023 Report Share Posted October 4, 2023 really only seems to be 8 finalist locks. In my opinion there seems to be about 8 bands who could make a tun for the last 4 spots for finals most notably being dawson, foster, shadow creek, Spring, Magnolia, seven lakes LeanderMomma and bug 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The name stuck out to me -- I think because their guard made National A finals at TCGC State this past season. My gut for this contest is still CTJ versus TWHS, but I haven't really seen enough of either to be sure. I haven't really seen a video of Reagan with good audio, either. 😔 Definitely, I'm curious to see where Pearland and James Bowie end up here, since they're two bands that are attending Nationals and maybe aren't complete locks for National finals yet. Are we in for some surprises, like at BOA Austin and BOA North Houston? A very stacked contest!

Best of luck to all! hmmm twhs is still struggling w/ their show a bit, esp musically. im hearing the struggle in their ensemble brass sound riiight away, trumpets particularly. wondering if it's a younger section, 'cause their trumpets were so killer in 2021!! kinda goes back and forth b/w stuff that sounds okay and stuff w/ significant balance, blend, and tuning issues. ending clearly still a work in progress, some cool stuff in there, could be more interesting visually, very blocky, more like typical Vanderkolff. actually kinda an old fashioned music program from them, virtually none of the interesting electronic or vocal stuff that u come to expect from a Vanderkolff show. good or bad depending on how u see it. no idea how it compares to CTJ, etc. Rubisco and Tubalord11 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
packwick Posted October 5, 2023 Report Share Posted October 5, 2023 also like how they replaced those low brass files that move across the 50 in part 2 w/ some fluttering. literally LOLed when i saw it. they were like, nope, not cleaning that! smart move!
