I don't think the technical issues played a huge part in the finals results. They don't really look the narration at all either way. And the same thing for McCallum, it's not that they weren't good or were lacking anything substantial, it's just that some schools just played or moved better. After seeing all of the shows, the 5 that advanced made sense and were good and had a lot of challenging things in their show

Imagine a world where USBands posted their prelims results AND kept them up as well as captions so I don't have to stumble across the captions on a random band's Facebook 12th: 71.80 - Burnet HS 11th: 74.10 - William J.

Isn't that just their district festival?

Here's all the results I was given.

Ok y'all I've got the final ripple counter for Leander. At finals they clocked in at about 83 ripples that I counted in the band. It would absolutely be over 100 if I were able to count guard at the same time.

Full schedule is out. Also I noticed they're gonna do full retreat for this event and the one in Katy. I'm glad more kids are getting the opportunity to experience full retreat, wish they started doing this earlier. 8:45 AM - Legacy Christian Academy (I) 9:00 AM - Manor HS (II) 9:15 AM - John B.

Vandegrift won Austin prelims by almost a point and a half. Bands change week to week with how much improvement they do and how much they add so it makes sense

Holy cow that bottom 4 was cutthroat. I heard Anderson was half a point out of finals, but that being the gap between 12th and 15th is insane. Top to bottom this was probably the best contest I've seen and been to. No band was bad and every single group had a good shot at finals

Fun fact: I counted an upwards of around 65 ripples in Leander's show last night. It was around 47 at BOA Austin

A year later I have been given a prelims recap from a kid who had a screenshot of CompSuite last year

The finals bubble is gonna be insane on this if there's 15 bands and 12 finalists

I find it interesting that I've been noticing more contests splitting finals by top half and bottom half. Has this been a thing for a while or have I just started to notice it more?

Can you mail one to San Antonio?

Just thought everyone here would like this and find it interesting Genesis recently announced that they will be doing a smaller tour around Texas from June 23rd-July 13th before starting the official DCI tour in Denver. The main reason behind this is to "give back to the communities that have given so much to us" and I am all for it. Stops include Sharyland, San Benito, Corpus Christi, Houston, Brenham, Smithville, Oklahoma City, OK; and Garden City, KS. I personally am very excited to travel to many areas that don't get drum corps anywhere close to them to work with and perform for all the kids that have to drive hours just to see the nearest drum corps show.

Finals Results: 1st: 96.90 - Moe & Gene Johnson HS (Caption sweep) 2nd: 94.80 - Liberal Arts & Science Academy 3rd: 93.70 - William J. Brennan HS 4th: 93.00 - Anderson HS 5th: 91.60 - George Ranch HS 6th: 89.50 - John Marshall HS 7th: 89.00 - East View HS 8th: 86.90 - W. Charles Akins HS 9th: 84.90 - Lehman HS 10th: 83.70 - Pieper HS 11th: 82.00 - Samuel V. Champion HS 12th: 78.30 - Louise HS The only difference in placements in prelims for those 12 was that John Marshall and East View were switched since finals schedule is in prelims score order. The website had the prelims results but they took them down and put up finals. After a whole season of them not posting finals results they decide to get rid of the prelims results after I had gotten a person to write down finals scores at the event. I thought the new ownership would help improve USBands but they are still awful at posting results to nobody's surprise

So my old high school recently got a new trailer and I don't have all the details but they've been saving up money for it for years as well as some fundraising and grants. The company they got it from customized it and everything, super good product. I even helped assemble it when they brought it over. Typically even with this big trailer, they still have a box truck separate for props. I can ask for more specific answers to your questions if you'd like

Drop: Sharyland HS

Really surprised at LASA making finals, especially on their first year on their own. That's really good for them!

Actually I think one is an alto flute (?) I'm pretty sure I heard somebody say it was. They do look similar though

This contest has been an alternative for BOA San Antonio for bands that don't want to spend as much, travel as far, or go somewhere smaller. I wouldn't call it a direct answer to San Antonio, it just gives smaller programs a good place to end the season. I would say USBand's answer to BOA SA is their event at AT&T Stadium, but that event is gone.

Sorry knew I forgot something, got too into having to rewrite the whole schedule to make it readable here
