i don't want this board to be about my posts in CAPS as i review this... so i will do better and make my screen a little bigger as I type... so i don't upset the young'ns on here... If your username is your birth year, I can assure you that some of us are older. If it's high school graduation, can't confirm.

I thought castle could do it! Reminds me of the James Logan 2014 show quite a bit

Thanks I mistook Fishers for being Cartwright also. I want to know who does Fishers! I saw they’re outfitted by a smaller uniform company. The show design was unique in the best possible way. Michael Raiford.

I have a nice Malbec (alright kids back to band) 😜 Johnnie Walker Black for me. And a Coke Zero to keep me awake. We may disagree, but the man clearly has taste!

I'm not worried about the ages on here... i say young'ns a lot.. southern.. and old. but not worried about it.

Castle sounds so good!! There is a staging issue going on ... with the beginning... that might affect the visual ensemble score.. not sure but they are sounding beautiful. Also LOVE this flute soloist....so good.

Castle’s ballad has me totally sold. Absolutely genius design all around. I’m disappointed in myself for overlooking it for so long!

This Castle show is so good. I see why they took visual from DB.

They aren’t! I think it might be Jodie Rhodes? HUH! I thought he picked them up in 2019 with their "Nomadic" show where they first made finals at STL. It seemed like classic Cartwright. No? www.carrolldragonband.org/staff

Castle’s show took a while to hit me, but man they finished the show strong! Another outstanding trombone soloist. Also really dig their battery.

HECK YES CASTLE
I was not a believer when I first saw that band play this show, buts it’s come together so well. Incredible performance on all fronts. Way to go!

Castle was incredible!! Absolutely love that dark rich low-brass focused sound in contrast with Prosper's bright, clear sound. Both sounded full and huge and were a nice contrast. I'm happy Castle made it in - a very worthy Finalist with a terrific show.

i know it has to be ... and i volunteered on the field in Atlanta 15 years ago... the props in the end zone just irk me... there used to be an effort to keep them back further... .. i get it. there is a lot of crazy going on down in the tunnel ... the entire time bands are performing.

Much less chaotic and stressful than a San Antonio trip for BOASA, UIL state and then Grand Nats, where instead, they put all of their energy and rehearsal time the last two weeks simply to prepare for this event, and they all did very well.

dbbandalum I need you to transfer whatever power you gave Lincoln to pull off upsets and give it to William Mason tonight. Trust me. I'm channeling all my power into them

I'm glad they did. I was shocked to see them miss that earlier regional as I thought they had done more than enough to make it in.
