LeanderMomma Posted September 22, 2018 Posted September 22, 2018 Time for Pioneer! Then immediately over to Ohio for Carmel. I love technology. Quote

Keep in mind that it has been 14 years since they won nationals, and the neighborhood that school is in has declined A LOT since then, that being said, I think they will still make it into finals.

LostChoirGuy Posted September 22, 2018 Posted September 22, 2018 I am actually wanting to watch Valley View. I know Carmel is on, but we may not get to see them again today, and I think we might see good things from them. They were my surprise pick for the day. Quote

I know Carmel is brilliant and all, but you probably made the better choice. I found myself a little bored during the Carmel performance! Quote
LostChoirGuy Posted September 22, 2018 Posted September 22, 2018 I like when a band has an enjoyable show and doesn't need to have tons of props and frills to keep you engaged. It is also impressive when a smaller band can do it. I thought that was a nice performance. Not award winning, but I'm glad I watched it. (that is for Valley View) LeanderMomma 1 Quote

Yes, the whole previously winning GN is what had my expectations higher. I'm not saying that they were bad or that they will not make finals. I just had higher expectations. Quote
LeanderMomma Posted September 22, 2018 Posted September 22, 2018 oh my! Seven Lakes sure is bright! What the heck are those things anyway? Easter eggs? Quote

Well, Carmel was Carmel and on a different level compared to 99.9% of what I've heard today. Even with a few "Oh, Sh#t" moments like the horns in the Wagner, they were impressive. Can't wait to hear them at the GN's. Quote

I just found myself a little bored during their show. I will be more suitably impressed as the season progresses I'm sure. Quote

I hope I get to see this one in the Alamodome. Though the spooky Halloween themes seem to be running rampant lately, I did like this one. And the colors are fabulous! Quote
LostChoirGuy Posted September 22, 2018 Posted September 22, 2018 Seven Lakes sure didn't disappoint. I really loved their show! So colorful and vibrant, yet dark! And their sound is great! Definitely should medal today. My stream cut out right in the middle though. Does anyone else get errors sometimes where it says that the stream is already being used on another device when you know for a fact it isn't? Or is FloMarching just really unsecured and my account is being compromised? LeanderMomma 1 Quote
abtwitch Posted September 22, 2018 Posted September 22, 2018 Seven Lakes left me speechless. I was excited for them, but I didn't expect them to be at this level already. LeanderMomma 1 Quote

From the late 1980's until the early 2000's Westfield was a killer band and one of my favorites of all time. It's a very different program today. Quote
