LD Bell, pretty good! Brass seems noticeably better to me than in some past years. It is a relatively easy show and they are quite a bit smaller, but I see a bright future for the blue raider band.

Dare I say Marcus was cleaner than Hebron, although I say theyre we’re honestly very close. Marcus sounds just amazing and their visual is extremely clean!!

I can hardly wait to see the second half of this Marcus show. It’s so pristine and beautiful.

Carroll was pretty good! They have their whole show on and it’s fairly dirty but there is a lot of power in that horn line.
Cypress Falls was impressive visually! Honestly better than I thought they’d be considering the rocky road they’ve had the past few years. Strong showing!

Don’t let Wakeland’s lack of props fool you! They’re playing and marching at an extremely high level.

There is a reason water-themed shows occur so often.

Coppell was absolutely incredible! They have the same level of musical execution that they've always had, only now I feel like they have a really strong visual program to match with it. Beautiful show, I think this is going to do very well.

I’m not tuning in until finals; how did Keller do? Keller has that same great Keller sound! Marching is good, but it isnt a really flashy show.

The cut off for finals will be interesting… Aledo really had me convinced until the last 30 seconds with that tear

FloMo has such a fun show! I’m excited to watch that one at nationals for sure. Man i don’t know what’s goin on with box5 today but it’s been a struggle for me, interrupted pretty much every performance at some point.

Wasn't able to start watching until Keller Central (also missed Keller since I watched Grain Valley instead), but just ranking the ones I saw:
Flower Mound Waxahachie Keller Central James Martin Aledo
Also quick, random comment on FloMo... I can't help but feel a bit jealous after seeing such an amazing performance. To have such an amazing design team as well as having your fellow bandmates being able to execute such a high difficulty show is something I can only wish for. It's mind-blowing that high schoolers are able to perform at such a high level.

Flower Mound's show is definitely starting to come together. The Seuss characteristics make it a really unique show to watch. I don't know if this will win going up against Hebron and Marcus but I think it's a very fun production in its own part.

You might want to try adjusting the resolution down a little bit. If you click the gear in the bottom right corner you can change it to a slightly lower resolution and that might help prevent the stuttering or lagging issues.

Flower Mound was AMAZING definitely taking the gold here, music might be a toss up but flo mo has some crazy challenging stuff that is already clean

Looking forward to watching finals since I missed practically every performance today. Thought Waxahachie would've been in finals, but then again I didn't exactly watch any of the other bands except FloMo

I think they’re having some internal issues from what I’m hearing. Some staff and student drama. Very sad to hear from such a strong program.

They always give times in local time, so that would be in Central Standard Time.
