Guest Posted August 22, 2021 Posted August 22, 2021 This is lowkey the most stacked BOA McAllen so far. Maybe not as many big names as 2017/2018/2019, but pretty much every band in attendance has improved exponentially since 2019. Quote

Alexander just had a performance where they performed a sneak peek of their show. It’s already sounding amazing and their opener really is an attention grabber. This is definitely going to be an amazing year for all Texas bands, maybe even National. The dead space that COVID brought also attracted numerous opportunities of development in all Music programs. atypicalweeb 1 Quote

I'm sure everyone is as excited as I am right now. Best of luck to all the performers tomorrow. Big shout out to the JBA I'm hoping they go back to back champions! Quote

From what I've heard from other users, BOX5 is more consistent than FloMarching with their streams, so there may be less freezing and better audio quality now. Also, unlike FloMarching where you had to buy their FloSports service for an entire year to watch events, you can choose to buy individual events to watch.

Joe Schmoe Posted September 18, 2021 Posted September 18, 2021 First Block Thoughts: Gladys Porter performed first in the day but you could not tell. The energy coming off of their performance was on par. Harlingen may be a finalist contender. An impressive trombone solo starts them off with a piccolo-flute duet in the ballad. Rio Grande City also performed an emotional and expressive show and may also be a finalist contender. You could tell Robert Vela missed performing and did not disappoint. The real standout of this block was Pioneer. A beautiful opening hit set the tone for what was to come in the rest of the show. Pioneer may not only be a finalist contender, but has the possibility to go on to win their class depending on how the rest of the day goes. First Block Finalist Contenders: 1-Pioneer 2-Rio Grande City 3- Harlingen Quote
FaultLineBlues Posted September 18, 2021 Posted September 18, 2021 The audio is fairly decent in this stream, but I feel like I'm having trouble hearing soloists from time to time. Quote
