Dang, what a visual package! I can definitely can see the improvement from years past. Really love the bold choreography in that intro, it can really look cool with some cleaning. Show theme seems pretty fun although not too much aligned with my taste, music included. Those kids must be having a great time with this show I imagine. Beavercreek will probably make my personal top 10 rankings in Ohio again this season, but I’ll have to wait until I see more shows.

Sometimes I think it gets overlooked but southwest Ohio is such a big hotspot for this activity! Lots of high caliber groups in the region, especially on the Cincinnati side. Personally, I’d love to see Beavercreek amongst other Dayton suburban schools grow to the level of the Ohio powerhouses! Or an Ohio takeover of GN semifinals… perhaps, if my hopes and dreams come true, we’ll see more than 1 Ohio group at GN finals someday

The Akron Zips Invitational has been cancelled. Lack of entries (I heard only 5).

I'm not surprised they cancelled it because of the low attendance this year

Does anyone have the results for the Hilliard Bradley Invitational?

This was the right choice, although I was on the fence about whether they deserved a I.

Revere, where Norton's former director now works, was the reserve grand champion (i.e., 2nd place). The show announcer was very specific in his choice of words, which I would paraphrase from memory as follows: "To qualify for OMEA state finals, bands must meet two qualifications. They must receive an overall rating of I, and their performance must be at least six minutes long. One band qualified for state this evening: Copley." The implication is that Revere might also have qualified, if their show was long enough, but they only presented the first of three movements, and I had noted to myself that they were sure to be penalized for it. I'll have more to say about this competition later this evening or some time tomorrow.

The exact same script was read by the announcer at Licking Heights.

Springboro was Grand Champion at Troy. No bands qualified for State.

Lakota East reported on their social media they were Grand Champion of the Kings MSBA show, meaning they beat
Centerville tonight.

Has there been a list of placings for King's Invintational published somewhere? I can't find placings or scores anywhere.

MSBA scores have historically been slow to be posted (late week at best) but in post-Covid many have been posted by Monday. The process previously required the host school to send results to the webmaster who had to transcribe them for posting. Post-Covid, MSBA moved to Competition Suite which has improved the reporting.

1. I would encourage folks not to quote an entire long post, so as not to clutter the board with multiple iterations of the same text.

2. MSBA scores will be posted to the MSBA website. OMEA scores will not be made public. Speaking for myself, I would prefer not to know how og2 accesses this information, lest something change to prevent that. (I can say that -- not that I had any doubts about the matter myself -- I got proof from another definitive source last year that everything he had posted here was correct.)

I had belatedly noticed that Watkins at Licking Heights and Mississinawa at Troy were showing only as "OMEA" with no class on the schedules. I wonder if this means Watkins isn't competing this year, or only that they knew they wouldn't be ready even to get even just a rating and comments at this event.

The schedule had "Portsmouth" at Licking Heights; the score sheet apparently has "Portsmouth West." The latter is a regular OMEA competitor. The former only turns up occasionally -- and never having seen them, I can't say for sure whether or not those listings were in fact errors for Portsmouth West.

The day's big news is obviously the result at Kings. Maybe East is surging this year. Maybe Centerville just had a bad run. I happen to like surprises. And of course, a lot can change over the season.

A quick modification of the url structure from past years - here are the results from Kings Invitational 2023 - recaps.competitionsuite.com/ed86de06-6f3c-41d6-8ba5-e7909006c2d6.htm
Pretty interesting to compare the scores from 2022 to 2023 - Go East - my wife is a Centerville alumni so we always have a little fun joshing each other when they go head to head.

So four out of five judges had Lakota East ahead of Centerville yesterday. That's not counting Percussion and Guard, in both of which Centerville took first. But it was close in all captions.

[ohioguy2]

The stream from the Miamisburg vs. Centerville football game from this past Friday night is on YT. Bands start around 1:30:00. Looks like neither band did their whole show with props and uniforms, but it’s at least something.

[neop]

Looking ahead, I see that a "Claymont" is going to be attending the Cambridge OMEA show next weekend. I've never heard of them before. Paging N.E. Brigand to see if you know anything about this band.

Claymont H.S. is in Uhrichsville, which is located about ten miles southeast of New Philadelphia in Tuscawaras County (and about five miles northeast of Gnadenhutten, home of Indian Valley H.S.), and I distinctly remember going to Uhrichsville for a competition in my junior or senior year. That would have been the late 1980s. (Was that the competition where Lancaster cleaned up playing Gershwin's Concerto in F, or was that at Barberton? And where did we see Wintersville, who stood perfectly still and quiet throughout the awards? And what was the show where our buses were parked next to Hubbard's? Ah, faded memories.) Checking my spreadsheet, it appears that Claymont qualified for OMEA state finals 21 times, earning a Superior rating there four times, as follows: 1982-B/II, 1983-B/I, 1984-B/II, 1985-B/II, 1986-B/II, 1988-B/I, 1989-B/II, 1991-B/II, 1992-B/I, 1993-B/I, 1994-B/II, 1995-B/II, 1996-B/II, 1997-B/II, 1998-A/II, 1999-A/II, 2000-A/II, 2002-B/II, 2003-B/II, 2004-B/II, 2005-B/III. I don't know how long they'd been competing before 1982, or if they competed after 2005.

Speaking of old shows and unfamiliar bands, a friend came across the program from a 1985 show, including penciled-in results, that I hope to transcribe for this thread soon.

That's a shame. They've been competing since at least 1980, given that they were one of the bands to qualify for the first OMEA state finals that year. While there have been a number of years that they didn't qualify for state, and while they haven't received a I at state since 2013, I thought they weren't too far short last year. Any idea why they've made this change?

Time and money. The district isn't providing enough resources and supplemental contracts to allow enough staff to be hired to be competitive so they decided they could still provide enough of an educational experience without being ranked and placed against other bands while spending less money on the competitive aspect. That how it was told to me this spring. Basically following the path of Pickerington North.

Thanks. I wonder what "enough" and "competitive" meant to the music department and to the high school / district. Watkins was doing about as well as they've done for years. Did the directors want more support, i.e., did they have ambitions of moving up a level that the district wouldn't agree to? Or was it that the current level of support that they had being cut back? This could lead to a larger discussion about what the minimum level of support needed is for bands to compete.

Pickerington North, of course, was one of the state's top bands when they made their very unusual decision to stop competing in 2022.

I don't believe there were any cuts budget wise but a failure to provide enough resources to help be a success competitively. I believe the issue stems from not being able or willing to provide enough supplemental contracts for enough support for the program. I think that is a failure on the teacher's union and the district making it a priority in contract negotiations. They probably have no problems creating enough supplemental contracts for assistant football coaches but when a neighboring school district provides twice as many supplemental contracts for the music program its hard. I'm under the impression nobody outside the music program has been willing to go to battle for them. I don't know all of the details but it is what I've heard so they decided to cut expenses related to a competition budget.

If you're familiar with Antonio Vivaldi's The Four Seasons, you may know that the second movement of Spring includes a viola part that is meant to represent a barking dog.

Well, I'm watching video of an Ohio band from five years ago. They weren't playing Vivaldi. They were playing Claude Debussy's Prelude to the Afternoon of a Faun. It's not supposed to feature a dog. But the small stadium where this show was performed is adjacent to some backyards, and a dog can be heard barking throughout much of the tune. And darned if it wasn't almost in time with the music.
