    Far and away the best marching show in the country in 2013, and maybe the cleanest Texas show I've ever seen. An absolute master class. Really. Every designer should study that opener. It's clever, immediately establishes the theme, flows seamlessly, unfolds magically, has a wonderful sense of space and integration of the color guard, and is, of course, totally thrilling. Keep trying new things, Woodlands!

      Cleanest Texas show ever was Marcus in 2012

      Certainly, Hebron has never performed a show as clean as this. In fact, visual-related captions are what cost them the national title in 2015. They are, of course, fabulous musically!

      Marcus' show was indeed clean in 2012, but it was not as clean as this, especially when you take into account that this show was much more difficult visually. Marcus 2012 also tied for the visual caption at SA, which makes the cleanest ever argument a bit more difficult to substantiate. Nevertheless, Marcus 2012 is one of my favorites!

      +Trixie well yes visually the tie w/ TWHS is alright, but their music book was flawless, which TWHS here isn't quite

      Marimbas, Vibraphones, and Xylophones. usually less Xylophones than the others (they are way louder and usually the top percussionists in the 'pit' play them.

      Alex Croney Nope. I mean it seems like a lot, but whatever works for them works! If thats what it takes to almost win BOA San Antonio (they got 2nd) and go to State finals that year then thats what it takes! A lot of it has to do with how spread out their show is and whether or not time can be seen on the field by everyone at all points in the show. They only had 5 this year though. Just depends on the show and the leadership they feel is best suited for them I guess 🤷🏼‍♂️
