WanderingTraveler Posted Monday at 06:22 PM Share Posted Monday at 06:22 PM Rio Grande City: Excellent use of the field, plus that euphonium soloist has a beautiful sound!!! Loved the muted trumpet part. Wakeland: They were the masters of dynamic contrast and control! Not only is the full ensemble sound super mature, but those mellos are super impressive. Also another wicked sax player!!! Friendswood: Super fun show and man they got some power! Loved the small ensembles in this show, and the music selection was super fun. Leander: Was playing the, “how many pairs of glasses does each band member have?” game. But genuinely, such an impressive run and so entertaining!!! Lubbock-Cooper: Theme for this show is super fun. The flute soloist killed it and visually and thematically super cool. Colleyville Heritage: Loved all the music in this show. Backdrop for this show was neat once all the props came together!! Immersion with the whole metal thing was cool. North Mesquite: The standing tuba player was awesome. Woodwinds were super clear, nice features! The whole ensemble was visually very in-sync. geievekeekd 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

natertater21000 Posted Monday at 08:14 PM Share Posted Monday at 08:14 PM All but two of the bands that I would have making the top 6 have performed now and I expect a great run from the remaining two. Top 6 with ceilings and floors would be: Cedar Park- 1st-2nd. Personally I see them running away with the ordinals but I'm not going to rule out a come from behind win by Rouse Rouse- 1st-3rd. I mostly see them in second barring a surprise upset by them for first or by wakeland for second. Wakeland- 2nd-4th. Third is where I see them landing ultimately but Leander could overtake them for the last medal spot with a very locked in performance. Leander- 3rd-5th. It really depends on the quality of the run for them in my opinion, I would not rule them out of medal contention. Lonestar- 4th-6th. I really like what they are doing this year and they sound great! I don't personally think they can push the ones above them out of medal contention but we have all been surprised before! Aledo- 4th-6th. Best Aledo show in a long time, really excited to see them perform later today. DrumLine and lhbenlee 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post utee94 Posted Monday at 08:15 PM Popular Post Share Posted Monday at 08:15 PM Just got home from SA, will be watching on NFHS for the rest of the day while trying to get some actual work done. Didn't get a chance to sit in the stands and watch anyone, but Lone Star went just before us so we were waiting in the wings and at field level they sounded fantastic. Cohen's "Hallelujah" gets me every time and they performed it beautifully. DrumLine, astronautika, OGFISD99 and 1 other 3 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post Anthony V Posted Monday at 08:33 PM Popular Post Share Posted Monday at 08:33 PM In the past couple hours I was only able to watch part of McKinney North and then Richland. This is a great season for both of these groups. Neither are letting size dictate their sound output or musical presence. Both shows are a blast. McKinney North had not been on my radar until this season, but I will definitely be looking for them in the future.

Popular Post Lisajayes Posted Monday at 08:53 PM Popular Post Share Posted Monday at 08:53 PM This J.M. Hanks show is fun! Maybe it's just me reminiscing over the music that I grew up to, but I love it.

Popular Post WanderingTraveler Posted Monday at 09:09 PM Popular Post Share Posted Monday at 09:09 PM Hendrickson: What a sound from this ensemble!!! Props are super cool, and everything done visually ties in super well together. The battery was locked in, nice feature. Angleton: Drum Major cloaks are awesome! Loved the theme here. Trombone quartet was grooving! Congratulations on y’all’s first state appearance! Roma: Opening drill for this band was beautiful. Such a good dark sound from this ensemble. Brass technique was crisp! Clarinet, Trombone, Euphonium trio was nice!! Mckinney North: Easily a fan favorite. I hope the UIL formula is favorable to a show like this. These kids are wicked talented, especially that trumpet player! Small ensemble/solo stuff was outstanding. Richland: Loved the soloists in this. Ensemble balance was amazing. Also the tone shift towards the end was so fun. A&M Consolidated: Interesting show, fitting props. Trumpets killed it every time they were featured! Low brass and Bass Clarinet sound was super rich, loved that. Another show full of great solos. JM Hanks: Uniforms for this show were cool! Loved the sound of the low brass! Some of the visual elements being done while playing were super impressive! The little strobe light by the stage was trying to hypnotize me. Lakeview Centennial: Super challenging show! Love firebird. The back and forth brass stuff at the end was super nice. Brass lines in general were done nicely. chasehawkins, wndbndnrd, utee94 and 2 others 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post natertater21000 Posted Monday at 09:55 PM Popular Post Share Posted Monday at 09:55 PM Incredibly mature dynamic control and tone production from Rouse. They move VERY well and I think they are one of the best in the game at staging right now. What a show! bandlifer, WanderingTraveler and maxin459 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
