bxOxAxUIL Posted November 7, 2023 Author Posted November 7, 2023 Some great performances, Irion County, Meridian and Claude have stood out to me the most so far! maxin459 1 Quote
bxOxAxUIL Posted November 7, 2023 Author Posted November 7, 2023 Knox City probably has the most fun show I've seen this year! Quote
bxOxAxUIL Posted November 7, 2023 Author Posted November 7, 2023 A great performance from Whiteface, you can see why they've been so consistent since 2015! maxin459 1 Quote
maxin459 Posted November 7, 2023 Posted November 7, 2023 Irion Co and Whiteface have been my favorites so far today - really enjoying the 1A performances today. Quote
J-Mike16 Posted November 7, 2023 Posted November 7, 2023 Munday HS - Really nice performance! From someone who used to play a woodwind instrument, I really enjoyed all of the woodwind features! Nice job Munday!! Quote
bxOxAxUIL Posted November 7, 2023 Author Posted November 7, 2023 What a nice performance by Menard! Great drill writing and use of props! maxin459 1 Quote
maxin459 Posted November 7, 2023 Posted November 7, 2023 Menard is blowing my mind right now - 5 WWs! Great soloists flute/ tbn/ and trumpet. Overall, a great band sound. Also, get it snare drum! Quote
J-Mike16 Posted November 7, 2023 Posted November 7, 2023 Menard HS - That was an AMAZING run! Despite only having 19 brass, 5 woodwinds, about 10 percussionists (Didn't count lol), & 2 guard members, they had no issue projecting their sound! That trombone and trumpet duet was very good!!! and also got to give kudos to those 5 woodwind players and the lone snare drum player!!! That's how you defend your 1A State Championship title! Awesome stuff Menard!!! Quote
J-Mike16 Posted November 7, 2023 Posted November 7, 2023 O'Donnell HS - Loved that show! Nice sound and really good visuals!! That ending with Firebird suite Finale and the flyover was neat. Awesome job O'Donnell!! Quote
J-Mike16 Posted November 7, 2023 Posted November 7, 2023 Baird HS - Really good!! Loved the woodwinds and that closer piece is always a thrilling song to end the show on! Loved the overall band ensemble sound too!! Quote

TrebleMaker2 Posted November 7, 2023 Posted November 7, 2023 Wishing all those finalists a great run tonight! I had to miss some performances this morning, but look forward to catching up! Quote
ViewFromTheBox Posted November 8, 2023 Posted November 8, 2023 Through the first three bands here. Really good performances by all groups so far. That Knox City show looks like a lot of fun. I think they're the leader in the clubhouse so far, but the remaining four will have something to say about that. Quote
