Popular Post FaultLineBlues Posted September 24, 2023 Popular Post Report Share Posted September 24, 2023 Ever since I saw them, I was trying to remember what Round Rock's unis reminded me of. It's corn. They're marching corn.

Popular Post ChristopherRoden Posted September 24, 2023 Popular Post Report Share Posted September 24, 2023 Round Rock! I was scared of the green feet, they work though. Such incredible purple ballad flags!! Y’all are committing to the theme and the new uniforms are working well! Enjoy the show and the season! Y’all Sound and look great! crunchycookie3, Parkwoodmom and Ranxh1938292 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Origin Posted September 24, 2023 Report Share Posted September 24, 2023 I love how Round Rock takes advantage of the space with their drill. Also a wonderful display of dynamics. Can’t wait to see it all cleaned up later on. ChristopherRoden 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
symphbee Posted September 24, 2023 Report Share Posted September 24, 2023 Not to be overshadowed by technical difficulties - Round Rock CRUSHED it! Symphonic sound, solid visual foundations, and a lovely ballad! Best of the first half IMO. NEPats 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LostChoirGuy Posted September 24, 2023 Report Share Posted September 24, 2023 I wish I was able to see Round Rock's show more cohesively but what I saw was really gorgeous visually and had some great moments musically. I love those flags and the pretty guard uniforms! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post Parkwoodmom Posted September 24, 2023 Popular Post Report Share Posted September 24, 2023 I just got kicked off Box 5….I’m having flashbacks to last season. Also, why do I have to sign in each time I open the app?. Karma_Savior, clarinote, peshbandkid and 3 others 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ChristopherRoden Posted September 24, 2023 Report Share Posted September 24, 2023 Vandegrifts props are JUST enough (granted, how much more room do they even have for props!) I could tell you the name of the show without hearing the announcement! Also the color changing prop???? Surely that will become big come October/nov. The drill is just so clean already, and that MUSIC wow! I love that ballad so much, the first few notes remind me of Crown22, in a good way! This show is built for under the big lights. I’m stunned. This is such an incredible show, it will go SO far!!! Goosebumps in September is insane to me but it’s happening!

Popular Post GeekBoy54 Posted September 24, 2023 Popular Post Report Share Posted September 24, 2023 I think I may have given Box 5 too much credit.

LostChoirGuy Posted September 24, 2023 Report Share Posted September 24, 2023 How does box5 not anticipate the capacity issues with this contest every year? Also Vandegrift was amazing.

symphbee Posted September 24, 2023 Report Share Posted September 24, 2023 Maybe I’m just in a grumpy mood because the stream is awful but - I don’t really get the Vandegrift hype train? Like yes they can play loud, but there’s 600 of them - I even think they pushed it past sounding good quite a few times. It’s also hard to keep the visual interesting when the field is so crowded? Maybe I’m the only one who feels this way? Just needed to get that thought out of my head. Parkwoodmom and BandFan50 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post ChristopherRoden Posted September 24, 2023 Popular Post Report Share Posted September 24, 2023 Vista Ridge: the epitome of hitting the nail on the head. There is no denying them. They are doing what vista does best: loud and proud and it’s working!! One might even say: ICONic! Their uniform reminds me of Marcus, the arms read so well with the white/gray. I can’t get over how regal the opening hit was! They grab you and they keep you through the opener! They are in heavy contention for that coveted music caption, if not the gold. This musicality is straight from a wind symphony. They are grooving tonight in that second movement!!! Fan favorite for me! Great work Vista!! The visual just snaps with the music like Lego pieces (metaphorically) I love it! crunchycookie3, Ranxh1938292, gregorydf01 and 2 others 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
