TrebleMaker2 Posted October 31, 2023 Posted October 31, 2023 Wow, Vista! That music is so incredibly clean and nuanced! Love it! gregorydf01 1 Quote
maxin459 Posted October 31, 2023 Posted October 31, 2023 Okkkkayyyyyy VR! That was a very clean performance and what a cool percussion book. gregorydf01 1 Quote
Ghost DM Posted October 31, 2023 Posted October 31, 2023 When I die and am led to heaven, I hope the music I hear along the way is the mello line from Vista Ridge. Holy cow that sounded like perfection! Samuel Culper and gregorydf01 2 Quote

Hopped up on the stage and rammed a billion notes in about 15 seconds & sounded flawless doing it. Expand As you can probably guess from my username, I'm a Vandy band parent. And Ethan (that soloist) is honestly one of the most talented musicians I have ever seen. I don't even think the solo does him justice. He's also a really nice kid JazzRun 1 Quote

Dave609 Posted October 31, 2023 Posted October 31, 2023 Ronald Reagan HS- This was my first time seeing their show this year, and this show just added to the many reasons why Reagan is one of my favorite programs! The opener was truly spectacular, I loved just how chaotic it was! I really enjoyed the music and really enjoyed the low brass feature. Thank you Ronald Reagan for a fantastic performance! Quote

Congratulations again to the 43 bands that advanced on to the State Marching contest and to the 14 State Finalists on a fantastic season!

Saxplayer6 Posted October 31, 2023 Posted October 31, 2023 @Samuel Culper thanks, but I’ve already seen that one lol. Hoping someone got one from today. Quote
MikeKyu Posted October 31, 2023 Posted October 31, 2023 My prediction for the top 5. I didn't catch the first half 1. Vandegrift 2. Marcus 3. Hebron is determined to clean up before Nats. This is the anger to fuel their fire 4. in a mild upset Vista Ridge rides their musicality to a medal 5. The Woodlands 6. Flower Mound after putting on an amazing show are left dumbfounded and ready to hit it hard for the rest of the season. Quote

Popular Post ViewFromTheBox Posted October 31, 2023 Popular Post Posted October 31, 2023 I'm not even going to try to predict results. Between how amazing every group was today and the general weirdness of the UIL system, it's way too hard to predict these things. But congrats to everyone who performed today! Y'all were awesome!

Zil Posted October 31, 2023 Posted October 31, 2023 I'm jealous of all the folks who were at the stadium today to witness all these bands perform. IMO, streaming doesn't do any of these bands justice (regardless of platform, the technology just isn't there yet). For those ending your season today, congratulations on a great season. For the rest, all the best on your next contest and keep it up. Thank you for your performance today. gregorydf01 1 Quote
