If this is what BOA Super Regional is like, just what till UIL 6A 🔥🔥🔥

Wow Round Rock! Talk about visual presence! Loved your formations and couldn't wait to see what was coming next. Looked like you were having tons of fun when you cut loose.

I agree, I think someone said earlier that if they’re going to play that then they really need to go for it. Huge missed opportunity

Does anyone know if it’s Top 8 Bottom 7 or like Top 7 Bottom 7 with the 8th place band going in between both halves?

As someone from the RPB (McKinney), Earlier I thought we might have a chance at finals, but after watching the finals up to this point, we absolutely stood no chance 💀

Yeah but this was kind of a regression year for Canton. It showed at springtown when they went from 1st place last year to bottom 5 this year.

Expand  

i think canton may have fell off a little bit, because they went from state champs in 2018, to state finalists from 2020-2022, and then 14th in state prelims (10 finalists) and then just not making state at all, i truly feel bad for them

Great run from Round Rock! Love the new uniforms a lot, and while I do miss the old ones, I like the modernness of the new ones. Really strong sounds from the brass, some difficult technical runs that they are nailing. Great work from the soloists throughout. I do wish they gave the Mello's a run in the end of the metropolis part, but seeing how they set up the ending I understand why they didn't. Visually very appealing as well, guard with some great work. Great job tonight Dragon Band!

We are always at every competition and game, even after our kids graduate. My daughter graduated in 2023. Myself and a lot of other Pearland graduate parents still attend everything and cheer them on. Plus the friends and families of the current band kids (425 kids in the band right now). Yeah, they have a very large fan base. 🥰

Expand  

And you guys are the reason we do what we do, I’m coming to the end of my time here in the next 3 days and I told the trumpet section before that finals run that we’re doing this for you. The fans that cheer us on, the generations of kids just like us that got us to where we are today. The friends, parents, siblings, and those who are no longer with us. We do it every week for you. We have the best fan base of any band in the country and I will stand by that. ❤️

i just realized The Woodlands is in the bottom half of the schedule! unless they were last in the top half then thats definetly unexpected!

The height of insecurity is being unable to appreciate brilliance in others because you are afraid it makes your accomplishments seem smaller.

The opposite is in fact true. The greater the obstacle, the more heroic the victory.

If I'm Hebron, or this "clarinet player", I'd rather beat a bunch of bands that are amazing asf than a bunch of bands that are lame asf. 

Which one says more about the abilities of my band? Hmmm...?

canton broke a 16 state appearance streak this year

Expand  

Yes they did but personally that should have happened last year. To make state from area b and not finals is kind of...unacceptable. I don't think Canton deserved to make state last year.

What happened to Dan Morrison? 🧍🏻‍♂️

Totally, great points @MarchingMafia. As a veteran poster/lurker I should have known better to take the bait, but I have to say, it’s a bit disheartening that the anonymous callousness gets worse every year… and I was active on here when Marcus and Bell were Most  Wanted #1 and 2 lol. 

Anyways, conversation for another day. Congrats to all the performers tonight, leave it all out there!!!

Hebron is about to make history rn. Godspeed. This will be my final post. Love one another
