i saw sfa's prelims performance. they were great, no question about it. but to me, it didn't have the usual sfa... "zing" to it... *ahem, play LOUDer* looked like their closer wasn't done, which probably explains the standstill performance for about a minute. i'm sure they'll bounce back and own up at san antonio, there's a lot of potential for those kids. i still like the profanation show the best though. as for the other bands... brazoswood was LOUD and awesome... not as loud compared to willowridge though. they sure were a treat! saw WC's marching on the dvd preview, but couldn't hear anything b/c of too many ppl talking. great drill and color guard. cypress falls sure was a surprise. as one of the smaller 3A bands, they sounded great, and looked great so early in the season. just fix those darned speakers (finals performace)!! but great repertoire... poulan, saucedo, and higginbotham. i love seeing the underdogs do well, hope to see them in finals again at san antonio. james bowie had a cool show too. their music(barber) gave me a flashback of bell a couple years back. good stuff. would have loved to see langham creek's "scv version" of scheherazade but they weren't there. great showing for these tx bands. gl for the rest of the season!
