This is the first time in recent memory where multiple mid atlantic medalists went to Nationals. I thought Cleveland was the stronger group but I really enjoyed Norwin. Don't have context as I missed yesterday but I'm wondering if they may be on either side of the semis bubble.

At first I was thinking Norwin was really going after one of those class rep spots. But then I changed my mind. They're going after a semis spot based on score. That was a fantastic show!

Norwin plays with a pretty balanced sound, and I was impressed they never seemed to be overblowing and in control of their sound.

FYI Marian Catholic opened with the same piece, School for Scandal, in 1989. That was the year they won their 4th GN Title.

Alright I'm going to need yall to keep me updated on my guys from Norwin since I can't watch them. Box5 has not been on my side tonight but what I saw and and heard (mostly heard) was great! That guard is stellar. The brass was really nice and just overall pleasing to listen to. There was no sensory assault going on. I enjoyed what I saw- I wish I'd SEEN more!

Can someone explain the draw board to a rookie? Once semifinalists have been determined the draw board gives you the performance order of those bands. Lower number = perform earlier. Class representatives go very early/late.

And so great to see Norwin return to GN. They were good, maybe shooting for not only a semi finals spot but perhaps the Class AA title.

The "I Love Lucy" Chocolate Factory scene is a moment I simply didn't know I needed in marching band. Now I can say I've seen it all. I can't believe how well that translated! Kudos to the Franklin guard.

OMG Franklin is playing Red Cape Tango! Camdenton played that here in 2018. I had a dance part in that movement during my senior year. So many good memories!! Beautiful work Franklin!!

Sometimes a show can be so over-the-top campy that it really crosses the line into cringeworthy. This show NEVER approached that territory. This was the perfect amount of camp, and it was sold SO WELL by those kids. The band also sounded amazing. Just like CTJ was a perfect way to end last night's show, I can't think of a better way to have ended day two of prelims.

We have made through all of prelims. Some, nay, many incredible and memorable performances these past two days. While we wait on hearing who our semi-finalists will be, I present to you my ranking list of the past few days! It's been brought to my attention too that I'm missing some bands and I'm deeply humbled by that. Doing this for 99 bands is tough! But fun. If you can catch which bands I'm missing that would be very helpful and I'll edit the post to reflect where I had them. These are just for fun!

Missed Bands (only human) Chattahoochee Piqua Mount Pleasant
Class A Reps (Not top 30 score) Estill County - Panel 1 Beechwood - Panel 1 Murry - Panel 2 Bourbon County - Panel 2
Class AA Reps (Not top 30 score) Morton - Panel 1 Jenison - Panel 2
Class AAA (Not top 30 score) Milford - Panel 2
That gives me 37 bands in semi-finals this year. So many bands could flip in and I would not be shocked. This was truly an exceptional group of performances after an exceptionally unique 2 years we've basically had. Bravo to all the students, staff, and parents!

Marion won't be in finals I have a feeling the days of Marian being in finals are over, though I wouldn't be surprised to see them back in one day. They haven't gotten any worse, but so many bands have gotten better. I’d actually argue they have gotten worse. I really enjoy many of their programs but I think the reason that I (personally) am so hard on Marian these days is because I KNOW their potential. I’ve seen it and we’ve seen how many national championships they’ve gotten under their belt along with the spectacular shows that won them. 2021 is a tiny step up in comparison to 2018 & 2019 but still no where near pre-2015 Marian Catholic. So yeah, they have gotten worse. And yeah, everyone else has gotten better. It unfortunately happens to all of the BOA powerhouses at some point; PCEP, Reeths-Puffer, Spring, Seminole, Lake Park, etc I’m sure one day when we’re old and too blissful for these forums, kids will be saying the same thing about a Carmel, Avon, BA, Hebron-esque band we consider a national powerhouse today. It is what it is.
