Just got home from watching Region 32, and I’ve gotta say I’m close to being convinced Rouse winning BOA Austin wasn’t a fluke. Did they have the full show installed? I'm heading to TMC this weekend and am hoping that the schools follow tradition and showcase their full shows there. Having seen Wakeland, I think they are going to be a very solid 3rd place this season. CP and Rouse are far ahead at this point. The Wakeland show is amazing but it goes back to the "ole eye test" at this point of the season.

Really enjoyed Round Rock's show. Quite apropos given the goings-on of the day.
Cedar Park takes top marks from me for the first half of the prelims, but Rouse is up next and I'm literally shaking with anticipation.

The Rouse show is just bonkers. I thought it was strong in movements 1-3, but the finale just drops the hammer and makes you feel feelings.
Leander went full sousa again this year, and holy geeze what a solo. From sousa to trombone and back again, and he just kept topping himself. The whole stands gasped at that ending. Crazy town.
M&G was a fun show, but there's a LOT of cleaning to be done.
Dripping Springs had a really neat feature involving a bassoon, which is highly underutilized in shows.
But the Year of the Soprano Sax has apparently been extended into 2023.

First time using FloMarching. Anyone else having issues with FloMarching streaming today? Didn’t get to see a single band complete show without buffering or commercials. And the replays don’t have sound?!

And the replays don’t have sound?! I only watched the last 3 bands on Flomarching and did not have a problem. I'm expecting to have a problem with finals. This has happed in the past. It sucks that replays don't have sound. I don't know if there is a reason for that.

I am tickled pink to see these high guard scores for Leander. 😍😍😍 Also, I love Vandy’s dance team, I really do, but I’m a little perturbed they won the colorguard (“auxiliary”) caption. Like how? They dance phenomenally well, and their choreography is fantastic, but they literally don’t use any sort of equipment at all except swing flags during the ballad! How does that win a caption against all of the other schools who DO have full guards? I don’t understand.

I know most are caught up on Midwest nostalgia tonight but let’s look at the facts. Those Vandy guard girls are classically dance trained. Usually from a very young age. They are able to maneuver broad visual positions beautifully equally or effective more so than standard guards with super equipment skills. It’s subjective but did you all see what happened with Vandy 2019?! As an ancient marching arts fan, I can totally see the argument proposed but it like asking “Indiana” to step up music demand and risk so they don’t look so fantastically and amazing visually! Feel free to disagree
