How long has it been for both programs since they’ve been to San Antonio for UIL? Haltom last made state in 2014. Berkner last made it in 2016. Nice to see both back in San Antonio.

They were the show that got away from me, I forgot to comment on them. I’ll do my best to comment on what I remember from their performance. I did not stay for finals but I did see them in prelims.

The Richardson show this year was beyond pandora, it was based on the movie ‘Avatar’. Such a shame their electronics were out in the beginning. I’ve seen clips of their show (Though I don’t remember where) and the beginning had a woodwind choir, but they were hard to hear because of the audio issue. I loved the idea of their show and hope to see them make area finals in years to come. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jon Posted October 22, 2023 Report Share Posted October 22, 2023 Just found out that if you add up the Prelims results, SLC and KCent tied for 7th... wow. If we went off prelims results alone 8 bands would have advanced.(i think there was a new rule about advancing tied bands for state.)

Missed for the first time in 20 years in 2018, RISD tanked the season in 2020, moved to this area in 2021. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I loved the idea of their show and hope to see them make area finals in years to come. Ok I’m starting to remember. I looked up some pictures of the show online and I remember being impressed by how well they made that big circle formation in the opener. I know large curvilinear formations like that take work to pull of. I see on the results sheet that the two visual judges placed them higher than 2/3 of the music judges, so it seems their visual proficiency was at a high level during prelims and they were close to making finals because of it Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Because I know for the past two years we had ties for the last state spot and those were broken by judges preference. (I think they were both area b, or was one also in area c?)

Yes there was a rule change prior to this season. I think the recent ties in Area B and C likely contributed to the support for allowing ties for the final state spots to result in both bands qualifying.

Very curious to see the percussion scores and rankings No, they don't do caption judges at area, but in the more broken down scores which unfortunately weren't posted, the music judges rank the percussions themselves within the overall music rank.

MarchingBandOG Posted October 22, 2023 Report Share Posted October 22, 2023 The difference of opinion blows my mind, that 2 judges thought Waxahachie was the best band on the field in music, while a 3rd judge ranked them 8! pwjw99 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bancl Posted October 23, 2023 Report Share Posted October 23, 2023 Music judge 2 putting Waxahachie in 8th overall and Keller 11th in brass.... I have some questions. Snare20 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Asaiah Posted October 23, 2023 Report Share Posted October 23, 2023 Well... even though I personally disagree with that judge, it's worth noting that he's the Fine Arts Director for Leander ISD. So even though his opinion differs from mine, I trust that it's an informed opinion. JWork 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post alex4nder Posted October 23, 2023 Popular Post Report Share Posted October 23, 2023 Would also like to mention that Haltom didn't even make area finals the last 2 years (13th in 2021 and 15th in 2022) so to end up 5th in prelims and 6th in finals is a pretty impressive turn around from the program. Especially in such a brutal area. Gehrig4, celesta and JazzRun 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
