I don't think any band will have their whole show on the field this coming weekend. Even those who may put what they think are all the movements will have drastic changes before the UIL/BOA SA/GN competitions. I almost love that part of this more in seeing how the shows evolve over the month and how much different than are from when we first saw them! P.S. it's easier to edit down complexity than to add, so from what you describe, your band will be in good shape as the month progresses.

Knowing how it was back in my day, and also knowing how it was just 10-15 years ago when my nieces and nephews marched, it's definitely way softer in how they are treated and talked to. 🙂 Not saying it's wrong, but Directors are walking on egg shells on what they can say as all it takes is one kid and set of parents to get mad and raise heck with the district. Either way and regardless of what may or may not be true., good luck to all bands this coming weekend. Excited to see some new shows and see how some of the ones who performed this weekend build on it. Also remember that less than 1% of each bands parents/students are represented on this forum, so nobody should ever take what one or two or three or etc. parents/members say and use it as a reflection of the band or program. I was part of a band that was at the North Houston BOA and we had amazing discussions with so many parents/volunteers from so many bands. Not one bad experience or bad vibe at all. Let's keep it that way!

UIL rule change if it happens so it would be everyone if implemented. -

UIL 5A State Marching Contest 2023

Yeah, and realistically there's no reason not to. Not sure why after prelims it's so important to hide the results from everyone. I know they say it may impact the kids but many of the directors tell the kids anyway. -

All the directors and people in the know get the scores. Many of them will share with other friends in the music community. So that's how quick summaries go out and eventually a copy of the page will go out. Theoretically they aren't formally released to the public until after finals. -

Wow, Cedar Park, love how this show has progressed all year. The soloists are amazing, especially the euphonium player! Really going to be a hard fought and well earned victory for whomever makes finals and gets the top placements! -

It was proposed, I don't believe it actually came up for vote or approved.
