it's not always about being loud, cy fair tuba

ummmm wat

PEARLAND OH MY GOD FROM 3RD IN PRELIMS TO WINNING FINALS AND TAKING VIS AND GE BY .7

wow pearland.... ended really well - i think the gap between them and bridgland is incredibly tight and theres a potential for them to get 2nd predictions! 12 fulshear 11 dickinson 10 foster 9 dawson 8 friendswood 7 7L 6 CTJ 5 klein oak 4 cy fair 3 bridgeland 2 pearland (potential for a caption, steal V?) 1 RR (m/v/ge, high 86-88)

As a Klein Oak alum, seeing them in top half for this competition is so unreal. If you wouldve told me that they'd be in any BOA finals or even playing alongside CTJ and RR in any competition 4-7 years ago, I would have a better time believing that world hunger was solved. Good luck to everyone performing!

I actually think this was one of the more competitive years recently…

They didn’t have/forgot their podiums. I think william mason helped them with that

Yes but I have them behind either WM or Blue springs - meaning one of them is gonna be behind Pearland

For sure a lock, I actually think they totally belong into the top half at 6th place behind WM/Blue Springs

I knew I was forgetting a band! I'd probably put them behind CTJ and take out LD/Keller/Wax

1. Hebron 2. Woodlands 3. Vandergrift 4. Marcus 5. Vista 6. Reagan 7. Flomo 8. CTJ 9. Pearland 10. RR 11. Bridgeland 12. Cy-Fair 13. Waxahachie 14. Keller/LD Bell Bubble (in no particular order): Dripping Springs, Westwood, North Shore, Westlake, Timber Creek, LT, Dickinson, Clear Brook, Prosper big fan of North Shore and could see something happening similar to 2016 when they made finals.... do not sleep on them

1. Woodlands 2. North Shore 3. Klein Oak 4. Tomball Memorial 5. College Park 6. Spring 7. Klein Cain 8. Oak Ridge 9. Tomball 10. Klein wow North Shore, serious dark horse for finals at SMBC. surprised TWCP so low to 5th. also surprised cain got those scores in prelims, but that’s what happens when you go right after the woodlands 😵

No klein collins or grand oaks 😳

Prelim recaps plzzlzlzlz

I think College Park had a really strong showing at Lone Star Preview and they have a pretty decent chance of making it in finals. I didn't feel like they were too far off from Bridgeland. Sleeper pick for sure ;)

Based off of what I saw at Lone Star, this competition will be VERY competitive for those last few state spots at 4th and 5th. Grand Oaks was a pleasant surprise - beating Brazoswood and staying behind Clear Brook is not an easy task. Some visual dirt here and there but they sounded quite good. Add Grand Oaks to the race with Oak Ridge, TMHS, and North Shore and it should be a very good and unpredictable competition. I love Klein Oak's show and I had them in second originally, but i'm pretty confident in College Park beating them for the second spot. Their music, especially the passages with Electric Counterpoint, are so well done and they're starting to come together visually. Their show feels good and they should do even well at BOA San Antonio (probably could be a top 25-17 band at that comp). I'm suprised Klein Oak isn't going to BOA San Antonio after this comp... their show design and execution is screaming GE.

After seeing the Woodlands full show recently at one of their exhibitions, I think they have a strong chance of getting into the top 3 and very good shot at the eagle. Their show design and music book this year is too good. So many details in the show to look at and their guard is nearly perfect. Just need to clean up a tiny tiny amount of dirt musically but I think they have a higher ceiling than the other bands just based on the show design. Thinking they could take GE/Vis… because we already know where the music caption is going to.

Dickinson was fantastic

From what i've seen so far - 1st - Woodlands Bluecoats Drum Corps 2nd - Klein Oak 3rd - College Park 4th - TMHS 5th - North Shore First out - Oak Ridge/Klein Cain/Spring I think the 5th spot for advancing to state will be super competitive between North Shore or Oak Ridge. North Shore's shows are very much designed for UIL judging and this year is one of the better designed shows they've had musically. The brass and woodwind passages are very clean and bright and I think if they don't make it, it would probably be from how their drill is written. When they made 10th in state finals in 2016, they were easily one of my favorite shows from that year. Similar to North Shore - I have Oak Ridge MAYBE falling out really because it's lacking so hard on drill and just show difficulty, but I could see them placing decently high on music which could get them in 5th. From what i've seen from Tomball Memorial at BOA Katy, they have a very BOA focused show - The show is incredibly difficult and complex and the amount of people in the band is HUGE. However, I did notice that the show seems individually dirty with the marching - but the guard and shapes being made with the drill were fantastic. Even though the judging system is different, it's important to know that at BOA Katy prelims, they got 3rd in Vis GE behind Reagan and The Woodlands, beating CTJ, Cy-Fair and Pearland. That is beyond crazy for a band just recently dipping their toes in BOA. There is plenty of time to clean the drill up and i'm sure with the weather clearing up they'll make alot of progress (if clean enough maybe they could sneak into that top 3 bubble😆). 2nd could go between Klein Oak and College Park. I have no doubts College Park could take 2nd place with music because they sound fantastic and their music book is great, but Klein Oak already has a much more clean, more complex and difficult show in terms of content design, drill and music. From what I saw at Conroe, it sort of reminds me of early Marcus where they focus on filling the field with a more balanced symphonic tone - which is what UIL judges usually like. 🙂

Vista Ridge 2018... by far my favorite ballad of all time Woodlands 2018 RR 2019

i think if they had went to nats they would have gotten a near perfect music score

did anyone take a video of the woodland's send off?

does anyone know if hebron did a encore run for any competition?

we need justice for the bands that didnt make it 🦾!!!

good lord can someone just post the recaps. it would help everyone in this thread so much
