For the bands that were in the finals, did any of them discuss their experience performing so late at night, i am curious how that went.

After seeing Dripping Springs BOA performance, I'm putting them in the medal category for state, if you disagree then you haven't seen their show

Westlake Marching Festival 2014
Bandlover replied to XMenAlum's topic in Past Contests, Events, and Festivals Archive
I always enjoyed watching Hays, I hope they have a strong year, my favorite Hays show was 2009, My kids were in the Drip band that year so we say alot of Hays. -
The marching judges in finals stated that DS was very clean, but that was due to their sets being to easy, so they marked them much lower. Not sure how that works, I don't know what judges look for in those areas

DS had a timeing issue during their second movement that caused their drop to 6. Even the best teams sometimes fumble at the goal line. A small mistake will hurt you in a tight competition no matter how great you are; other bands can learn from this, first time since 2005 that DS didn't make it past area.

I am courious about the make up of this years 4A Area D. In 2011 it was such a strong competitive area; does area D still have the same line up?

Marching Band Evolution
Bandlover replied to whitewing09's topic in Everything Music: Marching, Concert, Auditions and more
When I was in Marching Band in the late 70"s and early 80"s, less attention was given to the music and more was placed on the marching; now you hear these incredible musical performances along with the amazing drill designs, plus you have more competitions. Its all great and I hope it keeps getting better! -
2012 Westlake Marching Festival
Bandlover replied to GBMELLO's topic in Past Contests, Events, and Festivals Archive
I went back in time and looked at scores from previous years at Westlake, they seem to be consistant with the winners scoring in the 95% range. 2001 Bowie 95.42 -
2012 Conroe BOA
Bandlover replied to vacon3`'s topic in Past Contests, Events, and Festivals Archive
I'm sure that Cedar Park will do just fine; last season they took their time, polished their show then nailed it in the end. Its hard to predict a winner in early October, so many bands are still working things out, making changes, gaining confidence ect, its still wide open. I have not had a chance to see Cedar Park or Dripping Springs shows this year; I'm very interested in the outcome of this contest... -
