VictoryRun Posted October 21, 2014 Posted October 21, 2014 Yeah I agree... One band could make a huge difference Quote
Charthebuf Posted October 21, 2014 Posted October 21, 2014 It will be very interesting on how many can qualify for state. I see about 6-7 bands who could take spots in the top 4 Quote

These regions are supposed to be improved. 72 %,,, ? region 27 advanced 8 out of 12 or 66,67 % Should of had 2 mores schools advance with Cy lakes and Cy Springs ! Quote
Astros Posted October 22, 2014 Posted October 22, 2014 As of now area only has 13 schools in. Katy region 4 school left to go (Bellaire, Cinco, katy, and Westside) No results from area 13 yet where there are 6 schools Quote
easyusername Posted October 22, 2014 Posted October 22, 2014 Region 23 is over with 7 bands advancing. 15 bands without Region 13. Clements was last band to perform (9:15) at Region 13, results should come around soon. Quote
easyusername Posted October 22, 2014 Posted October 22, 2014 All of Region 13 results posted. Austin, Dulles, Kempner, Travis, Clements earned Superior ratings. Exactly 20 bands for Area E! HighToes 1 Quote

HighToes Posted October 25, 2014 Posted October 25, 2014 Langham had an interesting run. Clements were great, very strong. Quote

Astros Posted October 25, 2014 Posted October 25, 2014 Not at all impressed by Clements. Maybe I was expecting too much. Quote
Astros Posted October 25, 2014 Posted October 25, 2014 CFISD might get 3 schools. Charthebuf and tvr1997 2 Quote
easyusername Posted October 25, 2014 Posted October 25, 2014 Austin, Clements, Cy Fair, Cy Creek. Not sure about who else. Quote
king_leonides Posted October 26, 2014 Posted October 26, 2014 Life is not fair. Marching band is not fair. Marching band will teach you that life is not fair. Marching band leads to brutal heartbreak. I have been marching or watching shows for 35 years, and every year I draw the same conclusion. If you are looking for justice, you've come to the wrong place. My beloved Spartans did not make it to the Alamodome this year, which I find utterly incredulous. But LD Bell did not make it, and they are former national champions. Again, this activity is brutal, unforgiving, and unfair. You rarely, if every, get what you want (or even deserve.) Plenty of people across this state learned that tonight. I guess I have simply become bitter and cynical after nearly 30 years in this activity. I have come to accept success - and failure - in this activity as a fluke, If I really wanted fairness, I would go watch track and field. In the 100 meter dash, the first person across the finish line is the winner. Marching band is not the 100 meter dash. Here is Harvey Two-Face's opinion on marching band: What determines who succeeds in life - or for that matter, marching band? "Luck! blind, simple, stupid, doo-dah, clueless luck!" I guess I really should stop caring, but after investing so much of my life in this activity, I really can't. HighToes 1 Quote
