the terminator Posted October 11, 2007 Posted October 11, 2007 oh yeah that was probably us then. We performed like a8ish and then again at 6:45 in exhibition i think. I know for a fact I saw you guys and I did like your show a lot it was well done Quote
borchnork Posted October 12, 2007 Posted October 12, 2007 so we've finally added visuals to the 2nd mvmt. I was gone from practice when they did that, so I'll probably look SOO insanely lost tomorrow at the football game. Quote
borchnork Posted October 12, 2007 Posted October 12, 2007 rsb3 said: Get ready, because it could very well happen again. Will's Point is also awesome. They had a beautiful show last year, the drill was great, but the sound was just spot on. Their color guard also adds some great visuals to their shows. Definitely. Last year they were scoring higher than some major 5A and 4A bands at pre-UIL contests. I expect the same again this year. This isn't the right Canton HS I don't think. That sounds like the Arranger's Publishing Co. West Side Story show... and the sound from that band is way too bad for it to be Canton (even if it IS outside). So get ready ladies and gentlemen, the 3A powerhouses are coming to town! I don't think they'll destroy us like they did my freshman year. Trust me, we're a completely different band now. But I do discredit any of the predictions automatically if they don't have Canton finishing AT LEAST top 3. Quote
rdzsaxplaya Posted October 12, 2007 Author Posted October 12, 2007 Just checked the predictions, sure is a lot now and a lot of them have us placed very high, some a little to high lol I will stick to my predictions, i say we make in a range from 6th place through 9th Quote
SerialSleeper90 Posted October 12, 2007 Posted October 12, 2007 I really think Lewisville will come out on top. While Lewisville may not be as respected as their neighbors, if I remember them correctly, they had a pretty gorgeous sound and can pull off a pretty good show as well. O well... we'll see saturday! Quote
borchnork Posted October 12, 2007 Posted October 12, 2007 I don't know... I think I placed Canton 2nd, but I'm starting to feel like they could take it very easily if they wanted to. And of course they want it! Quote
rdzsaxplaya Posted October 14, 2007 Author Posted October 14, 2007 Man, our show wasn't bad at all but it wasn't good enough to compete, for some reason the wind threw all the fish off, don't ask how cause i don't even know wow my new model for this contest "From Best in Class to 3rd to Last" haha, I'm not so bummed out thoe I know we will be ready for UIL Quote

Donezo Posted October 14, 2007 Posted October 14, 2007 Wow! Wakeland over Wills Point! That's insane. Quote
the terminator Posted October 14, 2007 Posted October 14, 2007 we at wakeland were actually a little disappointed about our drop, but as this was our first major competition we have ever competeted in. I for one am really proud. We will try to build off of this result and improve Quote
sax5warrior Posted October 14, 2007 Posted October 14, 2007 wait, DeSoto withdrew or what? man, that totally threw out my predictions. Quote
SerialSleeper90 Posted October 14, 2007 Posted October 14, 2007 yea I dont think I remember hearing anything about desoto... Quote
ddmwingz Posted October 14, 2007 Posted October 14, 2007 congratz to wakeland. great showing. sry about the drop tho, we know how that feels(happened to us at every competition last year and our first one this year). Quote
SerialSleeper90 Posted October 14, 2007 Posted October 14, 2007 I felt really good about the competition. Its just too bad we STILL haven't been able to officially perform the entire show. Quote
the terminator Posted October 14, 2007 Posted October 14, 2007 yeah I don't get wait DeSoto didn't show Quote
borchnork Posted October 14, 2007 Posted October 14, 2007 Desoto dropped last minute. We were supposed to perform right after them, but they no showed, so we ended up performing about 10 minutes earlier than scheduled. And wasn't the 7th place band Robert E. Lee, not John Tyler? Both are from Tyler, TX but I thought it was E. Lee that made finals. Quote
ddmwingz Posted October 14, 2007 Posted October 14, 2007 i think thats what they were saying...tyler lee. its the same as saying frisco centennial Quote
the terminator Posted October 16, 2007 Posted October 16, 2007 that's right sorry about the confusion. As for me I felt that Lewisville great sound but the show was kind of boring, Canton nice visual and music. I didn't see Timberview but they did a good job getting to 3rd in finals. Centennial's sax quartet was very nice but the show felt very incomplete without the closer. But I loved Waxahachie amazing music and sound. suprised they fell to 5th in finals but I was very impressed. Us at Wakeland we did well, but prelims was a lot better. Quote
SerialSleeper90 Posted October 16, 2007 Posted October 16, 2007 Actually, I didn't think Lewisville's was boring... it was just very schizophrenic. lol. Quote
borchnork Posted October 18, 2007 Posted October 18, 2007 I'm still kinda confused as to how the soulja boy dance fit into the show... Quote
