Origin Posted October 30, 2023 Report Share Posted October 30, 2023 Bridgeland is only the third band I’ve seen today, but that absolutely deserves to be in finals. This years show is just so much more aesthetically appealing than last year. And that guard is huge! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
crunchycookie3 Posted October 30, 2023 Report Share Posted October 30, 2023 Way to go Bridgeland! I have them right in line with Wylie. Could spoil something for a perennial finalist! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lost Posted October 30, 2023 Report Share Posted October 30, 2023 Bridgeland looked really great! Might just be me but that closer had some visible visual dirt, not sure. Music sounded strong though. crunchycookie3 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DallasFan Posted October 30, 2023 Report Share Posted October 30, 2023 Yeah this is my favorite marcus show in years. It's not even finished yet but I'm convinced. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

VistaGuardDad Posted October 30, 2023 Report Share Posted October 30, 2023 Oh man the Marcus drum core was awesome. It was obvious by the crowd reaction that I wasn't the only one that thought so. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dave609 Posted October 30, 2023 Report Share Posted October 30, 2023 Marcus HS- I felt disappointed their wasn't a bigger hit in the beginning . The music though is REALLY GOOD. Visual's are really clean and make the show fun to watch! A quad feature is something I wasn't expecting XD. Each hit was full of power and sounds very clean! I also want to say I love how their use of props is very unique! Overall, thank you Marcus for the AMAZING performance! Keenoid 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tubalord11 Posted October 30, 2023 Report Share Posted October 30, 2023 Simply Magical performance from Marcus, could Easily see them medaling here and at Boa SA, just flawlessly executed that extremely difficult show. Guard was incredible, percussion was incredible, that Quad feature is just WOW! defiantly the best of the day so far, should easily be top 5 here, AMAZING job Marcus!

Origin Posted October 30, 2023 Report Share Posted October 30, 2023 Marcus! Definitely my favorite show from them in a while. It’s edgy and weird but still has the beauty that we expect from them. That final ballad drill set with the prop and flags is goooorgeous. Dave609 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

crunchycookie3 Posted October 30, 2023 Report Share Posted October 30, 2023 I know Marcus had incredible success under Drinkwater, but the aesthetics of The Missing Piece and Above the Noise are absolutely unmatched. Best ballad of the day! I hope to see them pick up a medal tomorrow. Keenoid 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dave609 Posted October 30, 2023 Report Share Posted October 30, 2023 I haven't even seen Flower Mounds show yet, and the props really caught my eyes, I'm ready to see what they have in store! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DallasFan Posted October 30, 2023 Report Share Posted October 30, 2023 It's just such an edgy different show for Marcus but with the professional visuals and beautiful sonority they create. I mean between the incredible percussion, prop kids picking up swing flags to take up the field, those brass soloists. I hope that this show gets the credit it deserves because man is it a magnificent product. 2ndgenbandmom75 and Keenoid 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dave609 Posted October 30, 2023 Report Share Posted October 30, 2023 Flower Mound HS- HELLO FLOWER MOUND! The music is really good! They played it very well and with great power! The visual package was great as well! As they say, it was really, creative :). Hearing Let it B again was interesting. Plano East HS had it in their show last year. I like that it was used as a ballad feature! I have to mention the use of mirror props was cool, not something you see every year. That ending WAS AWESOME! Overall, a great run from Flo-Mo! Could see them in the top 5! Thank you Flower Mound for the amazing performance! Tubalord11 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tubalord11 Posted October 30, 2023 Report Share Posted October 30, 2023 WAY TO GO FLOMO!!! Not my favorite show design wise, but they execution was TOP NOCH!! Wouldn't be surprised if they snagged a medal as well, we actually could have another LISD sweep, I mean they just killed that performance! Such rich sounds all around, guard was great, that percussion has really stepped it up, I mean wow, great job Flowermound! crunchycookie3 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bandmomlover Posted October 30, 2023 Report Share Posted October 30, 2023 I love Flower Mound’s show!

Origin Posted October 30, 2023 Report Share Posted October 30, 2023 I looove the first half of Flower Mound’s show. That bassoon ensemble is like my favorite thing ever. The second half of the show wasn’t nearly as interesting to me and it didn’t really take risks design-wise, but the execution is obviously there.
