Omega Posted November 5, 2018 Posted November 5, 2018 I'll be in the Alamodome tomorrow for my first time watching a highschool contest there! Can't wait to meet some of y'all there! BenedictCucumberpatch and LeanderMomma 2 Quote
ChristopherRoden Posted November 5, 2018 Posted November 5, 2018 Was anyone able to catch Clements? Quote
jcbg Posted November 5, 2018 Posted November 5, 2018 Anyone have a recap of the first block? Unfortunately was only able to watch through Westlake Quote

Danpod Posted November 5, 2018 Posted November 5, 2018 Good performances all around in the first block. Coppell had probably their best run of their year. Marcus still sounds awesome and that should surprise no one. meursault and jcbg 2 Quote

jcbg Posted November 5, 2018 Posted November 5, 2018 This announcer sounds much different than the one I remember from 2016 Quote
Mash Posted November 5, 2018 Posted November 5, 2018 So I work with a dad who has a daughter in the Round Rock band. It strikes me as really odd that he doesn't go to any of the performances and follow band at all.... I am sure that is the norm, but it struck me as really odd. FloMoParent 1 Quote

To be fair, my parents weren't involved at all because literally any task the band asked for took a lot of effort and time that they just didn't have. meursault 1 Quote

If people want to sit on their hands and not really enjoy the rest of the contest, that's okay. I'll enjoy it more to make up for it. Quote
TWHSParent Posted November 5, 2018 Posted November 5, 2018 I think it is quite enjoyable. Lots of great shows! Quote
LeanderMomma Posted November 5, 2018 Posted November 5, 2018 Watching online simply does not compare to seeing this stuff live btw. This Alexander band is SO GOOD and this web broadcast is not doing this show justice. jcbg and Parkwoodmom 2 Quote
jcbg Posted November 5, 2018 Posted November 5, 2018 Not sure if I mentioned it, but my bold prediction for the day is that 5 finalists will come out of Block 3. Quote
Popular Post Bandnerd03 Posted November 5, 2018 Popular Post Posted November 5, 2018 John B Alexander wins the award for my favorite band I've never heard of before 2018. I can't wait to see what's in store for them for the future. LHSax, Ginger1229, Trebla2 and 2 others 5 Quote

I'll just do my part to show these f'ers how to properly support these amazing kids. Trebla2, TrebleMaker2, Ginger1229 and 1 other 4 Quote
