Tailgate88 Posted Tuesday at 10:28 PM Share Posted Tuesday at 10:28 PM Can't really say enough good things about that performance. What chops! That music book is just crazy. Definitely one of my favorite performances of the day so far. Samuel Culper and Tubalord11 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post Tubalord11 Posted Tuesday at 10:30 PM Popular Post Share Posted Tuesday at 10:30 PM VISTA FREAKING RIDGE!!!! Unreal musical performance from this group. Amazing job Euphs and horn in that opener, beautiful entrance from the ensemble. Love the fast transition, great dynamic control from the brass. Ballad is just beyond beautiful, and that closer just makes me so so emotional. An amazing story being told by some of the best, musically and visually. And my goodness drum line, so freaking clean, outstanding performance ranger band!!!

It was clearly a candidate for their run of the year and felt positively redemptive. The kids definitely received the wake-up call at BOA SASR and responded in true Keller fashion. (Never doubted the kids! Now the program must still deal with the other issue identified previously.) RattlerDad 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WanderingTraveler Posted Tuesday at 10:41 PM Share Posted Tuesday at 10:41 PM Vandegrift definitely doesn’t want to lose that medal, phenomenal job! Super difficult demand in that show! Brass technique has improved so much in just a few days! Wow! Full ensemble sound, even with some funky chords, sounded so balanced. Didn’t notice the oboe solo until now, but you are so talented!!! Loved the sax moment. Trying not to repeat myself from past posts, but outstanding job! utee94 and maxin459 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tubalord11 Posted Tuesday at 10:43 PM Share Posted Tuesday at 10:43 PM Wow Vandy, simply outstanding. Wouldn’t be shocked at all if they win, because to me that looked and sounded like a gold medal, as flawless as it could have been, don’t really have any words, their best run at SA imo, amazing all around, fantastic job Vipers, my goodness!!!

MarchingMafia Posted Tuesday at 10:44 PM Share Posted Tuesday at 10:44 PM Well, this was the first time I was able to see Vandegrift all the way through. Beautiful presentation. Loved the dance team's uniforms. They definitely had a cosmic feel. I didn't love the actual music though. I kept waiting for something resembling a song to be played. There was a lot of beat and plenty of horn toots, but not enough melody tying it all together for me. But to each their own. They are highly regarded for a reason. tubapop 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WanderingTraveler Posted Tuesday at 10:56 PM Share Posted Tuesday at 10:56 PM Pearlands uniforms are so cool. I love Pines of Rome and haven’t heard it in a marching setting since Cadets. Pines is hard enough for wind bands, so major props to putting this on the field. I wish that ballad impact lasted a but longer, because WHAT A SOUND! Loved this show and theme!

Were we listening to the same show? I feel like I need to get in my car and blast an orchestral version of appian way to get it out of my system. They could have extended the most famous part and turned up the volume to face melt. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Origin Posted Tuesday at 10:58 PM Share Posted Tuesday at 10:58 PM Love Pearland this year. Nice to see a Cartwright show without a bunch of giant props. That guard is starting to approach BA and Mason levels of epic flag work. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tubalord11 Posted Tuesday at 11:01 PM Share Posted Tuesday at 11:01 PM Oh, oh my beautiful Pearland, thank you so much for bringing that show to the field this season, and WHAT a final performance!!! Just executed oh so spectacularly!! Some of my favorite source music and boy do they play it well. Amazing sounds from this group, those WW's have just been nailing that start all season long, high brass just so gorgeous. Lovely work soloists in the ballad, some lovely sounds from the C-nets, and that ending is to die for, such great effect with the big whatever you'd call them lol. air ballons?? Some super cool visual moments, guard does such a fantastic job at elevating the level of the story and percussion has some super sick moments, love what they do with the symbol line. Truley, Pearland, thank you for brining that magical show to life, and congrats on that fantastic performance!! WanderingTraveler 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post WanderingTraveler Posted Tuesday at 11:12 PM Popular Post Share Posted Tuesday at 11:12 PM Marcus, starting your show off with technique like that is insane, yall are insane. But fr outstanding show. This whole percussion sequence in the middle is my favorite drum break of the season. All of these soloists are so talented. Loved the GE during the ballad, so beautiful. Plus such a cool visual tapestry to end the show. Tubalord11, FaultLineBlues, klkflute and 4 others 7 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
