riverdrums Posted October 1, 2023 Report Share Posted October 1, 2023 We are hitting the heart of the season when bands start dialing things in and fine tune with clinicians so I’m sure there will be plenty of movement along the ways!

riverdrums Posted October 1, 2023 Report Share Posted October 1, 2023 I think historically you gotta count JBA and Hanna, with what I saw last night, United will round out the short list. Some really solid performances. taking into account UIL scoring does differ from BOA, but looking and where the 6As placed and their scores.

jd1231 Posted October 2, 2023 Report Share Posted October 2, 2023 Does anyone know about the UISD Marching Festival? It's on Saturday, but I can't seem to find a schedule for it. There should be a number of Area G bands attending. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
notPaulMacca Posted October 2, 2023 Report Share Posted October 2, 2023 I don’t know about a schedule, but there’s gonna be a number of Area finalist bands attending the marching festival, such as Hanna, Harlingen, PSJA, and Donna as far as I know.

DeadMascot Posted October 3, 2023 Author Report Share Posted October 3, 2023 It’s going to be Alexander, United, LBJ, United South, Hanna, Harlingen, PSJA, and San Benito in the 6A Division Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DeadMascot Posted October 3, 2023 Author Report Share Posted October 3, 2023 There are a couple of 5As and a 3A as well… the competition usually does rankings by class and then overall Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Diego Posted October 5, 2023 Report Share Posted October 5, 2023 Any more early area predictions? I see Los Fresnos and Lerado United climbing a place. Can't wait to see how the Judges at the UISD competition will place the 6A bands. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WellThatsTubad Posted October 8, 2023 Report Share Posted October 8, 2023 It's United's year. Good for them. I feel like Hanna was cleaner than Alexander, but we'll see come late October. United's brass is really strong and more balanced. Should be a fun final stretch. jd1231 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SpudMuffin Posted October 8, 2023 Report Share Posted October 8, 2023 Saw the contest. United sounded great! Marched well too! Alexander.. meh. Those woodwinds are a little....aggressive??? Hanna's electronics didn't work at all. No solo mics, no subs, no synths, no mallet mics...ya nada. They got some spots where they're playing and marching with no battery percussion...how do they hold it together? Most entertaining band of the day was Cigarroa!!!! Easily the crowd favorite. San Benny and PSJA were decent. Harlingen was typical Harlingen but smaller. Wasn't the music that Martin HS played from Hanna's show last year???!!!??? Can't wait for Area! Throw Weslaco and Los Fresnos in the mix. Should be interesting. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MarchingBandNerd805 Posted October 8, 2023 Report Share Posted October 8, 2023 Yeah this was the most exciting UISD Marching Festival I have ever seen (IMO). United did amazing and it was a big improvement from Boa Mcallen, especially with their balance in the music. JBA did amazing as well, but I believe their show is still missing a movement. That last movement to their show could determine everything. I was very surprised by San Benito! San Benito's music was incredible. All they're missing is that visual content. Sadly I wasn't able to watch Hanna or PSJA, but I saw a video of Hanna's show at the festival and they're pretty clean. I am very excited to see United coming back after their slight downfall due to the covid quarantine. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
