BOA Dallas/Ft Worth


Recommended Posts

I was very impressed musically with Waxahachie’s show several weeks ago but didn’t see the finale. The brass fanfare is stellar! I hope their marching catches up. I predict they’ll make finals. Didn’t make it out today. I’ve been following the blog.

Okay, this is bs, we all know this.  Every band cares where they place no matter what level band they are.  Band members are taught to be respectful but talk like this is a shallow platitude at best.

 

There was a year back in the 2000's where BOA decided to not place a winner and didn't post scores at first.  That changed quickly because of the uproar.

 

I've been in small and big bands and we all very much cared where we placed even if we were way down on the list.

 

Otherwise the review is totally useless, that's 30 minutes of caring where bands place.

Wouldn’t say flomo is weird to be weird- it’s a continuation of their art themed shows. Pop Art- Warhol’s Brillo pads and Campbell soup. True colors set to Keith haring visuals. They’ve got a tremendous design team over there

 

Sure, it's their right to do so, but if you don't relate well with your audience, or more importantly the judges, then you unnecessarily pay a price for it.

I really liked the part of Prosper's show where there are the dueling runs between the high notes and the low notes. I dont know how to state this better but hopefully someone gets what I mean. I think Prosper will be successful at GNats if they continue building on what they did today.

 

Also, I really liked Duncanville's opener. They will be hunting for a spot in area B and may very well get a good one. That area is looking tougher and tougher.

 

I was expecting Union to be down after their showing against Bixby and Jenks, but they seemed great to me...

wow, yes, you can rewind! that's a game changer. Catching up with some bands I missed. watching The Colony now and they look and sound better than they have in ages. 

Whoa.....you can rewind?  Seriously????  Terrified of trying and missing something I can't get back to....

 

I will say that Keller is a WOW for me.  Its just the whole package for me.

 

I am curious as to how people would change their predictions, but I don't want to go negative at all.  So I'll ask this way.... Who did you UNDERESTIMATE?  You don't have to say who you would replace in your prediction, but just who you underestimated and maybe you would rank higher now in your own mind.
