clarinetistkai05 Posted Monday at 12:43 AM Share Posted Monday at 12:43 AM finally saw Forney yesterday at the community performance, and WOW! part 4 is shaping up wonderfully, apparently they had just finished putting it on the field before the performance. I don’t want to give too much away with the closer, but everything overall works PHENOMENALLY! JFNDOWBFAN 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They're really improving this year compared to last! Yesterday they got 1st at the Royse city marching classic, and 2nd at US Bands! I think they could be strong contenders in Area C.. as well as Rowlett and ofc Garland + Sachse... honestly there show is really good since the first time i saw them in area c back in 2022 i thought they had alot of potential and now with the area getting smaller from 32/31 bands yall have a better chance in getting finals since previous years Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bringthetreble Posted Monday at 12:52 AM Share Posted Monday at 12:52 AM Also, have you guys seen Mequite's show? Even though they placed 29th(?) at Area last year, I think with the proper execution they could definitely move up. Cathedral sounds is an awesome concept and I think they just need a push in the right direction. fluteness72917 and JFNDOWBFAN 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fluteness72917 Posted Monday at 12:54 AM Share Posted Monday at 12:54 AM i also forgot to say this but now that forney is 6a they will compete and see who is the better forney school. i saw that forney didnt make finals in boa and i was really surprised because there show is really good also north forneys but who will come on top? north forney made 1st in royse city and 5th in us bands really good scores for them but also forney had a harder competition. thoughts? bringthetreble 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’m from Rockwall Heath, and we were all talking about how much they’ve stepped up. I honestly thought they’d place higher than 29th last season, but this year they’ve made some serious improvements. Their brass section is amazing and really loud for a group there size and the woodwinds are really solid in their feature. it just needs that final bit of execution to fully click.I also love how they’ve play the Hebron opener from 2021 and they perform it with a lot of power. Their drumline is super solid, and the bassline is amazing with there splits and visuals and i think a screamer trumpet at the end? there closer has so much energy and excitement. If they keep pushing and refining those details, I can see them making a big jump in placement this year. They’ve got all the pieces in place to do really well Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BandNerd07 Posted Monday at 01:42 AM Author Share Posted Monday at 01:42 AM At this rate, this has become the most predictable area in dfw (maybe even in tx) because with area B we know it's probably gonna end up being coppell, the keller schools, and potentially slc or ld bell while in area J we have the lisd trio and prosper and maybe the wylies or mckinneys. At this rate literally everyone has a chance which isn't gonna be the case for any of the other areas. JFNDOWBFAN 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

With no disrespect to the Royse City Marching contest, comparing results to North Forney winning 1st at RC vs Forney not making finals at BOA (think they were 13)…..well that’s like comparing a Whataburger to a Whopper Junior 😂 Have not seen either band yet this season but expecting strong showings at area for both.

Not much to really add but saw I was at 399 post on the forums and might as well go to bed on a whole round number of 400 so will create another analogy…saying one band has better outcomes this season than another band may be factually correct….but to borrow a college football analogy, BOA would be and SEC game and some of these other band comps would be a Pulan Weedeater Bowl 😂 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post BoneGuy4 Posted Monday at 04:59 PM Popular Post Share Posted Monday at 04:59 PM It’s funny how friendly band kids are to their rival schools compared to the football teams. Rockwall be Rockwall Heath every year is one of the most heated games but then after the game some of the kids from each band go and eat together. One of the things I love most about what I do is the love each band has for each other no matter the size.

One of the things I love most about what I do is the love each band has for each other no matter the size. Agreed. Love how these bands support each other. Probably helps that some members were in band together at Utley. Hope that doesn’t change when New Middle School 4 opens next year and there is a true split.

BoneGuy4 Posted Tuesday at 04:05 AM Share Posted Tuesday at 04:05 AM That is every school in Area C 6A. Once the region marching contest comes around who ever does not get a 1 will be taken out of that list. All the bands that advance to area will be put in the order of the list you see above.

Well sachse the week before placed 1st at the WMI while D-ville tied for 2nd. Then the next week at Birdville D-ville got 2nd while Sachse got 3rd in prelims and 4th in finals. So anything can happen when it comes to that and I would think Rockwall will be around the same place. Tubalord11 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
