Sorry about the audio delay this video. I tried reuploading the video from adobe to my files (the audio was fine on Premiere pro), but it didn't work and the way I edited on the software I would basically have to completely remake the video to fix the 2 second delay on the audio. I'm not happy abt it but it is what it is I guess.

IMO Hebron was the best this year because they didn't feel like a high school band. Their show was less flashy than those like broken arrow or flower mound, but their music was amazing. They felt like a Drum corps, while a lot of the other bands felt like a really good high school band. I don't think any on the list are bad by any standards, but that distinction is what puts Hebron as high in my opinion.

Some people really put bands on tiers more based on the level of the show design, I’ve heard many talk about how effective some groups are at eliciting certain feelings and emotions with what occurs on the field and that the band that is able to cater their design towards those attention grabbing spectacle, unique aspects like prop usage, guard implementation, the “visual demand” students have through choreography and the drill itself. And the bands that do that best are just more effective, but hey there sometimes happen to also be a group that is demonstrably on another level when it comes to musical performance, and Hebron just happened to be that group this past year, I think that beyond anything is why I’m also in agreement that just because they didn’t cater to the nitty gritty of the best designed show doesn’t mean that they weren’t better😳🤐

I agree. Avon and Carmel are so overhyped and over scored it’s getting old. Sure they have a good guard but come on.

I guarantee you the judges don't get hyped because of guard... To be entirely honest, Carmel has mediocre guard when compared to the top BOA and UIL competitors. Idk about Avon, but the judges love Carmel for sound quality more than anything else, and if we seem over scored it's at least partially because we're playing on our home field. Carmel and Avone live so close to Lucas Oil that they can afford to go to not only BOA finals every year, but also Indy super regionals which is held at Lucas Oil, and ISSMA state finals and semi finals which are also held at Lucas Oil. Yeah, it's not entirely fair to Texas hands who have to travel so far, live and rehearse out of probably a dingy hotel, and can only afford the trip once every few years, but that's how it is right now, and how it will be unless and until boa changes it's finals location again.

@@joesmith9920 Carmel has a rich history and honestly my favorite Indiana Band program. IMO the problem may lie with the judging sheets. ISSMA and BOA score identically. So much of the focus is on the design elements and favor Visual over Music execution. Texas has maintained its music execution and only recently overall leveled up in terms of design (2010’s). Gaines is amazing but imagine if he wrote the same level shows for all the elites? BA, TP and Texas! The other problem I see is that Carmel Avon and Indiana has primarily focused on those amazing guards and usually design around them. Those outside of Indiana notice that the brass music books are nearly basic to intermediate in difficulty compared to the rest of the country. Chamber sounds are amazing occasionally but I can’t see you all performing brass music books at the difficulty of Hebron or other Elites yet.

I firmly believe that broken arrow is good just because they only let juniors and seniors march plus being rich

Broken arrow...way too artsy, Kinda like female gymnastics...too much ballet and not enough marching formations. Those outfits [sigh].
