Grand Nationals Adjudicators

I see a very familiar name, Mark Chambers! -
The Woodlands: This show was awesome! Love every aspect of it especially the effect of the acoustic...? guitar I think haha Spring: Wow! Their trumpets were amazing and loved the over all show! My favorite spring show to date. Cedar Park: Their sound is epic! I've always been a fan of how emotional their shows can be. L.D Bell: Their show is simply amazing this year! Their introduction is legit awesome! Their arrangement Kingfishers and the Mecca flute thing are sweet! The oboe solo for the ballad is so beautiful. Westfield: Especially loved their opener with the solo! cool stuff Clearbrooke: Repeat, repeat, repeat, repeat... Loved it! Hopefully they will do well at GNATS

As long as they didn't insult other bands, but I could understand the DM doing that though... Dripping Springs making champs was a huge surprise (no offense to anyone!) It's awesome that they're become so strong,2005 nothing, 2007 state finals, 2009 state champ... That's simply amazing!! Anyone see the prelim results?? Dawson seemed pretty close to Finals... stinks that they had such bad music scores -

What does the ISSMA grading look like? You know how UIL and BOA contrasting systems, is ISSMA the same? -

I want Bowie to step up to the challenge and earn a top spot -

cutting a 300 member band into 120 is pretty drastic, but I don't see why they wouldn't just leave out some of the double reeds, if the only thing they'll do is march a spot -

You can't expect a judge to assume that a person isn't playing because they play a double reed and they're just marching with a horn that they don't play. If a judge spots something they find wrong, they're going to focus on that point because in the end a judge's purpose is to almost to provide constructive criticism on the weakest part of the show. That's how I was taught anyway, I could be completely wrong. -

This years Bell show is definitely my favorite! I watch Clearbrooke's show last night and absolutely loved it. All of the bands going to gnats have so much potential! I'm so excited for them!!! I think Texas is going to make gnats epic!!!!!! -

I think that Texas has and probably will hold one if not more spots in the top 3 at gnats... I think it was 2002 and 2004 when Texas didn't hold a spot in the top 3 (in the past 10 years) -

Well I guess there was just something the judges didn't like. I'm kind of not surprise with Coppell's individual music score, for such a large band they don't seem as dynamically inclined as they should be which could be due to players who just march, it might just be me idk -

Gotta remember that it was on the day of 2A/4A area which gave less opportunity for AA BOA bands to compete -

I don't know why, but I just can never love a Marcus. They're extremely good, but I don't know... maybe show style? -

The scores seemed a little low, which could just be the judges perferences, but was BOA SA a week earlier than it usually is?
