I think Round Rock comes out the winner at this contest. They play really well and their hands look great. I think Cedar Park will come close, but i think Round Rock just looks cleaner.

Haha well i was just really impressed with the group!

LOLS.... after this contest what do yall think of CT Johnson's chance at Grand Nats?

Round Rocks Show this yeas is 10 times better than last year. They deserved their finals spot for sure at this contest. I just disagree with a lot of the finals placements in general at this contest, not just theirs

I was at the contest and would have place Round Rock at 11th or 12th in finals. They didn't have as big or balanced of a sound. They didn't march as well. Round Rock Marched and played extremely well...just not better than 6 of the finals bands in my opinion there were lots of bands in prelims that i thought marched and played well...may not have bad as expensive of a show...but they placed really low. In my opinion the placements (based on how well the groups marched and played and not based on props and electronics and such) should have been 1 - Bowie 2 - LD Bell 3 - Marcus 4 - CT Johnson 5 - Cedar Park 6 - The Woodlands 7 - Churchill 8 - Stephen F. Austin 9 - Richland (Their marching was much better than most of the other finals bands...i thought they deserved much higher) 10 - Anderson (I was really impressed with this band) 11 - Round Rock 12 - Flower Mound 13 - Reagan 14 - Spring Just what i wrote down while i was watching things. All the bands were just great. My favorite show was Cedar Park because they didn't need props or fancy things to be good. I was very impressed with Churchill's and Marcus' Drumline on the move. Round Rock's Drumline was the most impressive standing still. I thought. Bowie sound just blew me away. Does anyone know what the penalties were for that bands received in prelims?

Videos from Round Rock ISD: Stony Point - Westwood - McNeil - Round Rock - Cedar Ridge -

the McNeil vs. Round Rock Rivalry is very big. It's interesting because they are 2 COMPLETELY different run band programs with 2 different styles of shows and 2 different styles of thinking and makes the competition even more fun

Congrats on your win at Capital City

No Conroe Videos yet...sad day

when will videos from conroe be up?

I think Round Rock definitely deserved first I had a real problem with their show last year and the lack of notes they played...but this year they play and move a lot more and their drum breaks are to a minimum. I think they have executed it really well and will probably win the Westlake marching contest. i really enjoyed their show

I thought McNeil should have placed 2nd or 3rd!

I think something that will be interesting to watch will be how Round Rock High School Band fares at BOA. Round Rock really excels under the UIL style judging and contests like Capital City and Westlake, but haven't had much luck on the BOA stage because of the style show they play to. In my opinion they are not gonna place well at BOA SA but only time will tell

Yea i really think for like yall and McNeil and a few others it will come down to the performance. For Example last year CT Johnson was 7th in prelims and McNeil was 9th in prelims. Then in finals McNeil jumped to 7th and CT was 8th or 9th. SO it really did come down to the performance. SO it should be interesting to see how it all breaks down. I hope its a night full of great performances

Haha Opps My bad...yea add LD Bell to the finals. Which puts McNeil, CT, Reagan, The Woodlands or Brazoswood out. Sorry!

I was looking at the bands attending this contest and wondering what yall thought about the contests. Here are my thoughts on the ten final spots: Brazoswood H.S., TX Cedar Park H.S., TX Claudia Taylor Johnson H.S., TX Marcus H.S., TX McNeil H.S., TX Ronald Reagan H.S., TX Stephen F. Austin H.S., TX The Woodlands H.S., TX Vandegrift H.S., TX Winston Churchill H.S., TX and maybe Pflugerville and grab a spot from one of these guys? What do yall think?

Hey I just thought i would start an official thread to talk about BOA San Antonio. Just by glancing at the list and with the knowledge of Bands i know. (I haven't heard of every band on that list) This is kinda how i think it might stack up for those 14 final spots. Final "locks": Cedar Park Bowie LD Bell Marcus Reagan Stephen F Austin Vandegrift Churchill The "Bubble": ( i think any of these schools have a good shot at finals) Anderson H.S., TX Brazoswood H.S., TX Claudia Taylor Johnson H.S., TX Hebron H.S., TX Leander H.S., TX Mansfield H.S., TX McNeil H.S., TX Pflugerville H.S., TX Round Rock H.S., TX Spring H.S., TX Stephen F. Austin H.S., TX The Woodlands College Park H.S., TX The Woodlands H.S., TX Vista Ridge H.S., TX W. Charles Akins H.S., TX Westlake H.S., TX Opinions?

McNeil Drumline Dripping Springs - McNeil Band 1st Performance of "Now I Lay me Down to Sleep" -

I think you should root for McNeil again! On that note heres a video of McNeil Drumline 1.5 weeks into the season:

I know Westwood HS has new uniforms

I think Churchill and Reagan will probably make finals here. And after watching McNeil this year i think they will probably be in finals again as well. I am curious to see how Brazoswood performs this year.

McNeil HS's 2011 Show is entitled "Now I Lay Me Down to Sleep" They will be performing at the Capital City Marching Contest BOA Houston Region 26 UIL contest BOA San Antonio They are doing a great Job this season
