TXGABandFan Posted November 2, 2006 Share Posted November 2, 2006 I maybe wrong but I believe that UIL and BOA have different show length restrictions as well as other key differences. So I'm just curious if bands that are competing at both BOA SA on Saturday and at UIL on Tuesday alter their shows for the time differences allowed, or make other changes for the different judging formats.

trumpetman1288 Posted November 2, 2006 Share Posted November 2, 2006 Usually shows are pretty much the exact same thing, but the opening or closing may be different. If you watch Reagan 2004 at state, you will notice that they cut the last two minutes (approx) and had an alternate ending. In 2005 at UIL, they cut out the whole piano intro and woodwind runs and started right when the whole band comes in. Not sure how they ended though. Reagan is one of the better examples that I can think of right now. There are some other bands that do that, but I can't think of them right now.

Skippy Posted November 3, 2006 Share Posted November 3, 2006 In 2004, we couldn't do the last part of our show. Same with LD Bell this year. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Warfact Posted November 6, 2006 Share Posted November 6, 2006 so far while i've been at smith, our shows have been apx 7 min 45 sec total for both UIL and BOA, so we haven't had to cut off any part of it i remember last year, creekview added an entire movement to their show for the super regional Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
n3rdu5 Posted November 6, 2006 Share Posted November 6, 2006 I hope Bell doesn't have to edit their show for UIL...I'll cry if I can't see the whole thing at State, haha. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Band_Freak Posted November 6, 2006 Share Posted November 6, 2006 Bands have been "altering" shows for 10+ years now. Ever since the "8 hour/8 minute" rule came into being in 1996, bands have scrambled to find the happy medium. If you can squeeze in that much more excitement, then more power to ya!

Band_Freak Posted November 7, 2006 Share Posted November 7, 2006 i've never even been to a UIL event. but it sounds very strict Not any more strict on the field as BOA about their timing/boundary rules. Off the field is another matter..... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Skippy Posted November 7, 2006 Share Posted November 7, 2006 I hope Bell doesn't have to edit their show for UIL...I'll cry if I can't see the whole thing at State, haha. Yeah, they're chopping Part 5, the best part. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MRS. IaN KiNSLeR Posted November 7, 2006 Share Posted November 7, 2006 Yeah, they're chopping Part 5, the best part. dang, i hope that doesn't mess up their final placement. not to mention, i haven't even seen their show yet... oh, well... tonight will be killer no matter what.

Skippy Posted November 7, 2006 Share Posted November 7, 2006 I don't think it will have much of an effect in placement actually. Part 5 doesn't consist of a ton of marching or playing, it's just theatrical (for lack of a better word). The kind of stuff that gets emotion across and GE scores through the roof, but nothing that a UIL judge would really care about. It is REALLY cool though.
