gregorydf01 Posted October 30, 2023 Posted October 30, 2023 Wow Wylie! Extremally well done! That's one to watch out for! SlowDriver and JazzRun 2 Quote
Tubalord11 Posted October 30, 2023 Posted October 30, 2023 What an incredible performance from That Wylie Band!! The Mello sustain in the opening hit was perfect!! Soloist were great all around, guard did very well, and the drill was very clean! Very big brass sound. Would love for them to make finals, would say it's defiantly a possibility! love this show so much, great job to TWB! SlowDriver and JazzRun 2 Quote
Band4Life22 Posted October 30, 2023 Posted October 30, 2023 Wow Wylie! Coming out of an Area with three of the state's perennial powerhouses in Hebron, Flower Mound, and Flower Mound Marcus is no fluke! Great run today! SlowDriver and JazzRun 2 Quote
maxin459 Posted October 30, 2023 Posted October 30, 2023 Wylie has my favorite package so far today - really great show musically and visually. JazzRun and SlowDriver 2 Quote

One of my roommates marched there and was wanting to know how they did, ya'll think they have a good shot at finals? Hoping the early performance time doesn't kill their scores. Expand Loudest they have been. The mic really accentuated the soloists. Better dynamic balance than I’ve seen. Cleanest run they’ve had especially in that difficult closer Tubalord11 1 Quote

Expand It also kind of sets a decently large gap between the band in 7th and the band in 8th. That probably doesn't happen all the time but more times than not you see that gap happen. But in the end, it does make deciding who is top 5 in the state way easier because they see those bands one after the other. Gehrig4 1 Quote

Expand While this is true- if you’re the top 5 in the state you should be undeniable. It shouldn’t matter when you perform. If you’re the best, you’re the best regardless of when you go on.

I’m extremely excited to hear how they perform Expand Solid performance from JBA! Drill was defiantly the highlight for me, very clean and represented the theme throughout! I think the music could have used a bit more cleaning individually, the ensemble moments were very good, I do wish the Festive Overture small ensemble was a bit stronger, woodwinds were very good though! Very entertaining show, great job JBA! DeadMascot 1 Quote

Tubalord11 Posted October 30, 2023 Posted October 30, 2023 LETS GO PROSPER!!!! Can't not love a Texas themed show! Soloist killed it, and that guard was sooo good! Such powerful ensemble hits, great dynamics throughout, and the ballad was so beautiful, flute soloist killed it!! Really hope we get to see them again tomorrow, great job Mighty Eagle Band!!!

Tubalord11 Posted October 30, 2023 Posted October 30, 2023 Great Job Pebble Hills! The narration throughout really helped bring the show together, with the husband/solider and wife coming together in the end. Guard is VERY talented! Very strong opening statement, soloist did great! Nice to see them back here at the state marching contest, great job Pebble Hills! Quote
SleepySeal Posted October 30, 2023 Posted October 30, 2023 Does anyone know if they sell tickets at the door for this event? I live in SA and want to go but haven’t bought a ticket. They seemed to stop selling online. Quote
Origin Posted October 30, 2023 Posted October 30, 2023 Coppell is the first band that I’ve gotten to see today, and they did not disappoint. Truly an impressive musical feat with all those time signatures. Definitely some iffy intonation in the ballad but I’m sure every group is dealing with that today. Gehrig4 1 Quote
Tubalord11 Posted October 30, 2023 Posted October 30, 2023 Wonderful performance from Coppell! Loved the huge Rifle and Piccillo, guard was A TREAT to watch, so many hard moments both individually and as a group that they absolutely nailed! Music performance was incredible, trumpet soloist during the ballad was just so emotionally powerful, should be in finals comfortably, amazing job Coppell! Gehrig4 1 Quote
bk_bobb Posted October 30, 2023 Posted October 30, 2023 Coppell’s show is one of my favorites this season - I love how they take Brubeck and run with it. Literally. Great job Coppell 👏🏽 Quote

Expand Coppell has the most innovative and unique show of the day so far! Their design score should be through the roof, rightfully so. Tuning in the ballad seemed to suffer more than most groups, but they’ll get another run at this tomorrow. Quote

Tubalord11 Posted October 30, 2023 Posted October 30, 2023 Great show from Tompkins! I see why they did so well at area, great sounds all around, Woodwinds were killing those technical passages. Love me some firebird sweet, great way to close out the show! Really curious as to where they will place, feel like they could surprise us.....maybe. Great job Tompkins!
