  1. I think he's referring to the UIL realignment and UIL finals.
  2. The black plumes have made an incredible difference in the show. The pop during the 5/4 section and meatgrinder is subtle yet noticeable. Great decision by the directors.
  3. I believe that there are 206(ish) 5A schools.
  4. My guess is that he was expecting to hear what they did in prelims which to ears was miles better than than finals run. That's a good thing because it shows they have more to give come contest time.
  5. CP has never had an issue going first. In 2017 they went first in finals. DS will be ready to go. Luckily Cedar Park is staying in San Antonio the night before. Travel time will be next to none and they may be able to sneak in a practice before (and if they make) finals.
  6. How about Cedar Park. 1st this year, 1st in finals in 2017.
  7. It's just a shame that Horn Rank will still have Rouse ranked ahead of CP
  8. It's great to see Glenn proceed forward. I think that their prelims performance was better than their finals run tonight.
  9. Yay for Burbank. What a good show!
  10. Hebron is year in and year out my favorite sounding band. Those mellos!!!

  12. I saw their director go nuts as soon as it started. My guess is that it was an accidental deployment. It sucks. I would love to see that show again in finals. They did very well.
  13. Wow, Burbank sounded great, looked great, and has a great show. I think that they unfortunately disqualified themselves with a prerecorded piece played during their show. I'm gutted for the kids.
  14. I really think will make finals. They are looking great.
  15. That's correct if I remember
  16. UIL does not allow prerecorded music/effects to play during run time in field, BOA had no restriction. This does not include effects played before the 8 minute timer begins. UIL does not allow area boom mics to mic the entire band making it sound bigger/fuller/whatever else effect you can go for (and there's millions of options), BOA has no restriction. Soloists are still fair game to be mic'd. That's a whole different discussion that I think should be banned but we can discuss that in a different topic.
  17. Do you have a very large car or are you a very small person? Just trying to get a visual
  18. So, today at regionals was the first time I saw Rouse without the BOA allowances. The show is a BOA show and suffered today against a state built show like Cedar Park. They will still medal and they still have a chance to win it but the show does not translate as well without a few of the allowances that BOA affords. Cedar Park now has 2 consecutive runs if the same show. The show needs some cleaning. I think they are going to benefit from staying in San Antonio from BOA through States. Less travel. Less stress.
  19. Watching the change from the Friday night game to the finals performance is gigantic. I think they pulled it off in prelims but it fall apart in finals as they didn't have the reps on it yet.
  20. Saturday should be a lot of fun. My belief is that the kids were intimidated following Reagan.
  21. Cedar Park did it in 2017 I believe as well.
  22. The finish should be exciting. CP had a different show for finals at TMC than they had for prelims. The prelim show was much cleaner as it was the show they learned last week. The closer was a mess in finals as there were some changes made between prelims and finals (from a CP student) that affected the crispness of the unit. I wouldn't count out Dripping Springs yet. 5A in SA is going to be a blast to watch.
  23. Brandeis looked amazing and sounded great. I am not surprised with their placement.
