Hmmmm... seems to me that if the way they did it was because Duncanville made highest by two judges and Reagan made highest by two judges, than wouldn't their original order be Duncanville, Reagan, Churchill before they realized they messed up? My guess is their "they made this many 1s so they win" business is a cover-up for the fact that they did it the right way but UIL judges just can't count.

Yay for Churchill! Its good that they didn't leave it the way it was, I don't understand how they messed that up though..... x_x reminds me of the Westwood/Westlake incident, people need to look over what they're gonna do before they do it -.-;;

Reagan had two ratings of 2 as well.... can someone explain to me the tie-breaking method because it totally confuses me x_x

Bell was the only band I got to see at BOA SA (twice from the tunnel before we went out and once for their encore) and oh my god, I couldn't care less that I saw nothing else. Phenomenal. They sounded amazing, they looked amazing, and I had chills the whole time watching it, my jaw was also to the floor the entire time. Excellent job, Bell, loved it, loved it, loved it. As for everyone else, it is unfortunate I didn't get to see you, I wish I could have seen more x_x but those going to state and nats, gooooood luck! And those going to state, see you there!

Haha, that made me laugh, the 04 uniforms made the colorguard look so gross........

Maybe its just a NEISD thing then

Are you kiiiiidding me?! I haaaaaaaaaaaaate multi-cam so much. When my and my friends sit around to watch the shows (god we're losers) we always get mad because they feature the wrong moments. I'm soooo happy about the high-cam thing, thats the only thing I watch on my grand nats dvd

Ronald Reagan HS "Transitions" including Danse Macabre (Camille Saint-Saens) Giannini Symphony (Vittorio Giannini) O Magnum Mysterium (Morton Lauridsen) and original music by Aaron Guidry

We get them every 7 years I believe, I think it may be a UiL rule or something... I dunno, some sort of rule? Maybe not. Someone mentioned our side plumes and whether or not it was optional, and yes, its optional, front or off to the side. I don't know how I feel about our plumes this year, I like them with the white wraps but I don't like the type of plume by itself. Its the kind that sort of... droops down, our old ones were fluffy and I liked that, hah

Haha, he only put it up for a little while back in May when we were all excited to see what they looked like

(Yes I go to Reagan, no I'm not going to say anything about any of our shows) Yeah, from multiple people, I've always been under the impression that at UiL it doesn't matter what you're marching or playing, just how you're doing it. My sister told me something like, "You could march out, do a box drill and play the Patterson choral and as long as you execute it perfectly, you'll win state."

For UIL events, I believe we're not wearing the white wraps over our hats, or the green flags hanging off our cinches.

Horrible picture, I know. This is the original design drawing for the uniform, the band directors put it up taped to the window inside their offices, so I had to take the picture though the window because it sucks. But I thought you guys may want to see, or something. Hahah

I'm looking for a list of solos online for solo and ensemble, anyone know where I can find one?

Uhhg, where they talk for about half an hour before hand? I couldn't deal with listening to all of it, I just skipped to the music

Well..... I had them last week, then we've them again on monday. I'm so new to this, I didn't even make district last year 'cause when I was playing the music I kind of looked off and got distracted then when I looked back at the music I didn't know where I was so I got confused and played a bunch of random notes untill I figured out where I was again >.< made stupid 14th chair. So this year I have noooo idea what I'm doing x_x I'm gonna practice like crazy tomorrow... I have to relearn my stupid scales for semester auditions for school too 'cause I forgot them all

Has no one else done district/region auditions yet?

Uhhhg, same here... I was planning on like 2 hour practices a day after auditions last thursday... I've practiced like... 20 minutes a day >.< meh

I have no idea what region I am in x_x Uhhh... well I live in San Antonio, go to Reagan, so... eesh, whatever that region is. (I feel stupid >.> ) Like EVERYONE that made region was from Chuchill and Reagan, it was kinda funny

She was good in the first one!! She was so.... Hermione looking... with the long frizzly hair and all that, she was perfect... then she got all girly T_T

I was gonna practice tons over the thanksgiving break because I made region and my auditions are the monday I get back from break but... its not really happening... I'm just too lazy x_x

We had auditions last week for district/region (I dunno if its on different days for different regions), so how's everyone doing as far as all-state goes?

What's stuck in my head? Definately my last region etude (just had auditions)

No, but I want to! I saw the ad for it but I haven't had the time to watch [as] as of late. >.<;; Is it funny? I love [as], watched it like every night over the summer when I had time. Another random question to start conversation: anyone bought/played Soul Calibur III? I think I'm gonna buy it this weekend because I love the SC games. Anyone know if it's any good?

I say it goes to LD Bell, they're just a great bunch of cool classy kids that are real nice no matter what the outcome of the contest
