this is why i like BOA, out of state bands settle the argument always.

davis never really had a good chance of winning against af EVER!!! until this year davis only beat af once and that was in this competition so........ HA!

[skilynnclari]

@jakeadams101 I wish you would stop being so mean to Davis. If some kids from the band saw this, how do you think they'd feel? I know it hurts me when people say mean things about AF.

Davis-- just so you know, I am from American Fork, and I think you are great. Don't let people like this spoil your win. You beat us fair and square and you deserved it! I hope you know that we don't think of you like some people here have portrayed. We love you! :)

@jakeadams101 I agree with skyilynnclari. I'm not from AF or Davis, but it hurts when other people bash on my band. We all have different styles, techniques, music, etc. But we all have the love of marching and the passion of performing and that's what really matters. If it takes us to victory, sweet! If not, at least we had a great time and went down with a bang. I'm not trying to chew you out, but please, be nice, I'm sure you wouldn't want people bashing on your band.

how the crap did they get 2nd? they got 3 captions and GOT 2ND!? NOT ACCEPTABLE!!!!!!!!!!! af rocks!!!!!!! davis sucks :) it just does not make sense!

[skilynnclari]

@jakeadams101 Davis doesn't suck. They are a great band with great people, and I think they deserved to win that one. This was not a very good performance. And it doesn't matter, all of us band members in AF love Davis-like I said, they are great people.

Oh, and the captions? Music has the most percentage of the whole score than all the other captions. Percussion and Guard are only 5%! So that's how they did it.

9:36 - 10:20 is sick!

[felinebovine04]

sorry but I really don't understand your show this year. does it have a theme of any sort....or a continuous melody....?

@felinebovine04

@TromboneHero451

If I'm correct, it's about Schizophrenia.

[felinebovine04]

@CaitSithIsGod There still isn't a continuous melody. Its all jarbled. Maybe schizophrenia isn't something you should wright a marching band show about...

[skilynnclari]

@felinebovine04

The show is called Shades of Conflict and it's about the conflict that takes place in our minds, from light to dark, to calm moments to insanity, choosing between right and wrong, ect.

Oh, and there isn't supposed to be a consistent melody. But thanks for watching and taking the time to ask. :)

[TromboneHero451]

I've watched this show a few times now, and I still don't get it. What is this show about? Please, enlighten me.
