Oct. 6th Mesquite Marching Festival

[rhhsband]

So I saw Poteet's show last night (granted it was from the sideline) but I can honestly say that I feel the same about their show this year as I did about their show last year. I have loved the opener both years and then not really liked the ballad or closer regardless of how well they are executed. But yeah, it was a pretty cool show.

So we got straight II's last night...needless to say I was a little surprised. I mean I didn't think we did anything amazing, I just thought we did better than last year and last year we got straight ones. But I guess this is a different year with different judges...

 

All the judges said basically the same things, something like "You have a high demand show/drill" with the second half of the sentence left off which is "but the band isn't performing it good enough yet."

 

Anyways, I'm hoping we use this a motivational factor to prove that we are anything but a second division band...but I guess we'll see.

 

So if anyone has the results I would love it if they posted them...not the captions but the actual rankings and all that. Thanks

So I get to see Poteet's show this friday as we are playing them...has anyone already seen it and/or know what it is. One of my friends that use to go to Poteet said it's something about New York or Manhattan right?

 

Also anyone seen and/or know what Pearce's or Sherman's shows are this year. I have tried to find video of any performances this year but have been unable to locate any.

 

Thanks

 

 

 

We {sherman] are doing Urban Dances and Olympiata by Whitakaer and Danielpour

ooo sounds interesting. Although the name kinda throws me off. Cuz I first read "Urband Dances" and I was thinking stuff like breakdancing and bboying. Then came "Olympiata" and Whitacre and now I'm like... clueless again.
