I'll only be at semis and finals, so I'm honestly a little disappointed to hear MC is still in AA as they'd have an easier shot in A. I really wanted to see the band this year. I suppose a miracle could still happen...but they're probably not in the right panel for a miracle, unfortunately. I'll be in class when they're performing in prelims too 😢

Can tarpon still make it even with the weather? I saw some Tarpon kiddos on Instagram this morning already traveling that direction so I am saying YES.

I tried it in 18 and fell asleep. I'm young and have underdeveloped decision making skills. I might just try to see everyone.

I'm debating whether I should try to watch every single band this year. Should I go for it? Why should this year be different? You should try to watch at least a portion of every performance every year. The only exception is made for those working staff positions that make it impossible to watch performances. If you're a spectator, no excuses.

To give the Centerville kids some credit, this was an exhibition and they did just run a whole day of invitational logistics. I was there and it was not bitterly cold but just a chill in the air. We came expecting to freeze and we were surprised how warm it was given late October in Ohio. Not in love with their show but let's see what they do in Indy before we write them off. Centerville looks to have a lot of potential in their show this year, it’s not my favorite but it looks as if done well it can get them some points, I currently have them in the 16-20 range, Bands are allowed to have bad runs and if they had a heptic day running their home competition that can hurt a bands performance so anyone who sees this try to keep that in mind though this may not have been a good performace centerville is known for cleaning untill the end! Looking forward to seeing them at nats! My issue with putting Centerville too high this year isn't even really their performance or show its that they have the worst prelims performance time possible lol. Performing right after BA and Fishers isn't going to do them any favors. Not sure to what extent it'll affect their semis placement, but I imagine that it will to at least some extent.

I feel like it is a spot where they could be pulled up in score, or pale by comparison. Definitely a double edged sword...

You should try to watch at least a portion of every performance every year. The only exception is made for those working staff positions that make it impossible to watch performances. If you're a spectator, no excuses. I should've clarified that I'd be watching at home. I typically leave the streams on in the background as I take care of other responsibilities (makes lovely background noise, and I usually get to see a good bit of everyone) but I didn't get to see most bands this year due to college responsibilities. I want to make it up by watching the entirety of every performance. I'm not regularly specifically skipping some bands because I don't want to see them, I promise!
