Annoys the h3ll outta me. I want to hear the band, not your dumb announcements. This is 100% the choice of the band/directors. The timing of the announcements is scripted. The band chooses when to begin their performance relative to the announcements. ViewFromTheBox, FaultLineBlues and Nny14 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tubalord11 Posted October 31, 2023 Share Posted October 31, 2023 Super strong performance from Waxahachie! Love all their musical selections, I remember watching Yellowstone with my family so hearing the theme takes me back, and Rocky Point Holiday is always a classic. Very rich brass sounds and soloist were great, amazing job Waxahachie! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

washedupalum2017 Posted October 31, 2023 Share Posted October 31, 2023 The cy-fair ballad hit -- what a great moment! Love the butterfly coming down the field, really pretty & effective staging. LeanderMomma 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

washedupalum2017 Posted October 31, 2023 Share Posted October 31, 2023 (edited) Shoutout to Coppell for being the only school so far to still be wearing shakos. I guess I'm old school for that opinion. I think it's necessary in some drum corps due to way the visual package has evolved -- much more demanding choreo -- but I don't think a single high school has a choreo program that requires no headgear.

This show is really good and musically sounds AWESOME! i really enjoyed the flute solo in the ballad movement! And that Closer, WOW!
