Oboeish20 Posted September 3, 2024 Posted September 3, 2024 No audio but you get a good idea of their visual effects. Love the sunglasses drill. The guard looks to be bigger. JFNDOWBFAN and BDC 2 Quote

utee94 Posted September 4, 2024 Posted September 4, 2024 Shows are looking pretty good. Between excessive heat and rain/lightning, many of the Central Texas bands lost a ton of outdoor practice days over the past 2 weeks. It doesn't seem to have impacted things too terribly. BDC 1 Quote

I’m pretty sure it’s Sachse. For some reason thought that’s who it was after visiting maxpreps and seeing that was their next game, not who they already played 🤦♂️ Quote

M&G Johnson: Their guard had some really fun choreo and character moments last year and that continues into this year! The dancer quartet on what I presume to be the dance floor prop was fun and I'm excited to see it with music! The drill writing is pretty effective, and uses the size of the program pretty well, a lot of those follow the leader sets are just fun to watch. My only "complaint" if you could call it that, is that I'd like it if the dance floor was a little bigger! Cedar Ridge: The overall choreography, staging and drill makes it immediately clear what the show is about, and they're all in on the pendulum imagery, from various choreo moves like swinging arms and swaying legs, and a really neat drill visual with a soloist in a giant pendulum that swings from side to side, I'm really happy with what I'm seeing in terms of taking the concept and running with it. I feel like this is visually closer to their 2022 production than last year, and I appreciate it for that. LeanderMomma and JFNDOWBFAN 2 Quote
LeanderMomma Posted September 5, 2024 Posted September 5, 2024 Does anyone know if the NFHS stream mutes the bands during the football games? I don’t want to pay to watch Leander vs Hendrickson online tonight if they are going to mute the bands! Quote

Dave609 Posted September 6, 2024 Posted September 6, 2024 I had a chance to watch Melissa HS perform part one of their show from their game against Parkview. I will say they are playing very loud this year. Here is a link to the video (skip to 2:06:41 to watch the performance): This week, Melissa faced Frisco, which was live streamed as well! (Skip to 1:26:39 for the performace of Melissa) Quote

Expand This year is a little different. This is the best I have seen them in week 2 since I started going to all of their performance in 2015. The marching form is advanced beyond anything I've ever seen from CP this early (as a whole). The guard is gigantic (finally) for Cedar Park! They were at a little disadvantage tonight as their front ensemble truck did not make the game. The front ensemble features were mostly silent for the show tonight. Luckily Vandy allowed the front ensemble to use their set. Mighty sporting of Vandegrift. LISD is truly One Team. I hate how this phone compresses the audio. They were much more dynamic than this video's recording but, it's what I had on me. And this video should clear up as it finishes processing Online Marcher, LeanderMomma, utee94 and 2 others 5 Quote
MikeKyu Posted September 7, 2024 Posted September 7, 2024 Here was Vandy's performance from tonight. This show is going to be fun to watch develop. Ripping runs from brass and woodwinds. There's some great articulation across the field. I mention "too much bass" in one part of this video and it doesn't translate in the video. But there is a synth bass that is way too loud at the point just before that so that instead of an addition to the show it became the feature of the show. Once they get that under control it's going to be a super effective part of the show. Great performance tonight Vandy. It did feel good to leave a CP --Vandy game where CP wasn't just demolished during the show on either side of the main event. BandFan50 and Online Marcher 2 Quote
