Clifton HS - 

Really nice job!!! Loved the drumbreak/dance!!!! What a wonderful performance to start the day!!!

[Dave609]

And the final State event begins-

Clifton HS-

Great Performance! I really enjoyed the use of Sweet Dreams in their music! The dance break was great as well! Even though this show was about dreams, it was really a wake up call. Congratulations to Clifton HS on their return to the State Marching Contest!

[J-Mike16]

Queen City HS - 

Really nice!!! The theme of the show was very neat and interesting! Love the props as well!! Look forward to seeing this group in Finals, because I think they will advance!

[Dave609]

Queen City HS-

I LOVE the concept of the show! The use of Metallica and Daft Punk is awesome! This is their 10th state appearance and I hope we see them in finals! Also wanted to mention the big prop they had for big musical moments were really nice! Congratulations to Queen City!!!

[J-Mike16]

Brock HS - 

Wonderful job Brock!! Impressive soloists! Really enjoyed the performance! Congratulations on making it to State for the very first time!!!

[Dave609]

Brock HS-

First of all, that music is AMAZING! Really enjoyed that performance! Really interesting to see that they don't have any percussion marching and they have the pit in the back of the field, which is different than most programs! Congratulations to Brock HS on their first State Appearance!

[TrebleMaker2]

I just jumped in, sorry to miss the early bands! But I am enjoying Hitchcock’s performance. Good use of the white/black and some of the musical twists have been cool surprises as well. 
 

[J-Mike16]

Hitchcock HS - 

Ok, that was a really good run yall!! Love the 2 different uniforms! and those tubas have no issue with playing loud lol !!

[Dave609]

Hitchcock HS-

WOW! That was a great performance! I really enjoyed the music, the drill looked really cool, the uniform designs were amazing (based on The Cadets 2011), and the overall story of the show was fun to follow! Congratulations and welcome back to the State marching contest Hitchcock HS!

[J-Mike16]

Oh and some of that drill looked tough and they killed it in the good way!!!

[Dave609]

Hondo HS-

WHAT A PERFORMANCE! I salute them for that performance. The music, the techniques, the showing of honor to those who have fought, just an overall amazing show! Congratulations to Hondo HS and Welcome back to the State Marching Contest!
