2009-10-03 McKinney Boyd Marching Band @ Golden Triangle Invitational

[scubareece]

that was my favorite show (even though im only a sophmore and an alternate that year)

[CanyonBassCaptain]

That's such an awesome complex. Got to see my first live DCI competition there! :D

[viva9626]

Wow...You guys are GREAT! Everyone is in step with no mistakes I can see or hear. The only complaint I have is that the brass seem to cover most of the Woodwinds sound.

[boydbronco94]

@viva9626 Thank you for the compliment!! :) This wasn't one of our best performances (in my opinion)... you have no idea how many people were out sick! =_=

[viva9626]

@boydbronco94 Is that why it looked like there were a few empty spots at the end? That sucks.

[Mike754]

What songs are you guys playing?

[FSUfanOFtheBAND]

I never noticed but at 7:54 are those Bass Clarinets or Baris or something?!?!?!

[boydbronco94]

@FSUfanOFtheBAND lol, I believe those are mellophones and/or euphoniums ;) I honestly can't remember though.. it's been so long. :O

[FSUfanOFtheBAND]

@boydbronco94 I'm talking about at the front of the field at 7:54 those marchers look like Bass Clarinets or Baris.

[boydbronco94]

@FSUfanOFtheBAND oh haha.. sorry. I replied to your comment at like 4 in the morning, so you can see where that could have affected my statement ;) On the left side at 7:54, those are bass clarinets and on the right, saxophones. :) Sorry about that :D

[bluesguy07]

Boyd sucks at marching band stuff... nuff said. But, grats on your fluke win.

[MHSroyalbone]

@bluesguy07

McKinney Boyd earns their winS-you should do some research and you'll be enlighted the see all of the success they are quickly earning not only in the marching arts but winter guard and concert season as well.

[FSUfanOFtheBAND]

This is now my favorite marching band show that I have seen this year on youtube! lol I look at this show like every week and it never gets old.

[boydbronco94]

:D We (the McKinney Boyd Band) are glad you enjoyed our show! :) It's nice to know we have some fans out there ;)

[boydbronco94]

whoa O.o watching this video again... I finally realize the vast number of people who were sick for the Golden Triangle Invitational. Wow... large number of people were gone due to the swine flu, the regular flu, and the stomach flu. :O

[FSUfanOFtheBAND]

Omg wicked awesome from 7:05-7:30.

[FSUfanOFtheBAND]

The opener sounds like it would be in some scary movie at the beginning lol. Awesome!

[boydbronco94]

WOW, I'm very glad you enjoyed our show this year ;)

[wow1424]

in the begining of the show is that played on piano, if it is what are the notes.

[FSUfanOFtheBAND]

D, A, Bb, G, D, A, Bb, Gb

[wow1424]

[FSUfanOFtheBAND]

your welcome.

[hatach55]

you guys were kinda boring :P

[boydbronco94]

if you don't mind, leave the negative comments to yourself. Thanks. (unless you were being sarcastic)

[hatach55]

@boydbronco94 no that was boring. this is my serious face 0_0

[elbonia17]

@boydbronco94 I'm sorry, but do you have to attack everyone who has the slightest negative thing to say about this video? holy crap. maybe you should consider that it's possible people have a different opinion than you?

[boydbronco94]

@elbonia17 Yes, I have realized that, thank you.

[shunjun3]

Did another band do this piece the year before as well? I can't seem to find the show on youtube anymore, just know that it was titled "it chooses me"

[Mellophone77]

Ronald Reagan High School played "It Chooses Me" in 2007. You can't find it on youtube but it's on Google video.

Love the show McKinney Boyd! Sadly I knew how the show went before I ever saw it xD I'm a marching band geek =P

[boydbronco94]

lol, it's fine. We're all sort of marching band geeks. ;) I'm still quite upset that the "It Chooses Me" video was removed from youtube lol XD I personally LOVED the visuals Ronald Reagan incorporated!

[shodgin]

Outstanding job! I'm a proud MBHS Band parent! Way to go! You absolutely rocked!

[elbonia17]

band win

[boydbronco94]

:D oh my goodness! I was so nervous during the whole show!! :S Anyway, that was, by far, one of our best performances if not THE best! :D:D:D congrats, Mckinney Boyd Band! Our hard work has payed off!!

[SRSTATON]

This performance is what all the hard hours since August are for. The second place finish in prelims is the highest (yet) for MBHS Marching Band in an open competition, an accomplishment that everyone in the program should be proud of. In addition, the band had to go on the field with thirteen students absent from various illnesses, including that flu we're all worried about, and an aborted warm-up thanks to rain that hit as we were getting ready.

[jamesscott1015]

which of the colorguard is tierney?! ahha

[KamiTsuki7]

Very nice. The bass drum definitely helped out a lot in fixing the third movement.

[mbhsclarinet]

OH MY GOSH YOU GUYS!!!!! you did sooooooo amazing!!!! im so upset i didnt get to go!!! the preshow looks awesome and all the lines are so straight!!! XDDDD
