Trinity, Sachse, Keller, and other good bands made me think that they would get around 7th but I'm glad to see they did well. Dville has always been a solid group so a 2nd place finish at Birdville isn’t an anomaly Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BoneGuy4 Posted yesterday at 02:51 AM Share Posted yesterday at 02:51 AM I’m not saying anything bad about North Forney, but are they doing good this season. I know they didn’t do that best last year, so I’m just curious why you think they’ll beat Berkner and Royce city. Again please don’t think I’m saying anything bad about these bands.

JFNDOWBFAN Posted yesterday at 03:02 AM Share Posted yesterday at 03:02 AM It’s Royse City, but considering I still hear people say Rockwell, so I guess it could be worse. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes, but the fact that Rockwall was able to make finals at Prosper really shows me personally they weren’t happy with how McKinney went, and that’s exactly what they showed me Prosper, but I could def see Pearce break into the top 5 here Maxophone, SaxSoldier and JFNDOWBFAN 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Also over the past few years Dville has been losing their shimmer again just my opinion. I also may just be attached to the crowd pleasing shows and since I didn't feel touched by the show I didn't expect them to do well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I expect them to make finals, but unless they've had some major changes, I feel like the 10th-7th range is appropriate for them. Rockwall's show is amazing! Perfect show for UIL, and Boa as well apparently. Making finals at Prosper I'd imagine has been a huge confidence boost for the program, and I expect them to do very well here.

I also may just be attached to the crowd pleasing shows and since I didn't feel touched by the show I didn't expect them to do well. Fair enough. The show is a celebration of the Dville band’s 70th anniversary so it’s understandable that someone may not be super touched by the show if they don’t already have some emotional connection to the program (or any other reason one would not be touched by a show). I think it’s a cool show regardless of if you have some past connection with the program or not but different strokes for different folks you know. osito777 and Tubalord11 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My mind has slept a Few times since the past 2 areas but Rockwall and Sac have been pretty close right behind the Top Dogs, Wylies, and McKinney’s. Wouldn’t be surprised if one year one was higher and the next they flipped. CosmicLimbo 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Taako2027 Posted yesterday at 07:16 PM Share Posted yesterday at 07:16 PM I don't think berkner looks nearly as strong this year. Also, I think we should take into account US Bands Dallas Regionals and how Richardson did there---that showing would def affect area standings. I'll wait until after BOA Waco to decide more---thoughts? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

While Berkner may not be doing as well as they did last year I do believe that their shows are always some what of a crowd pleaser. Typically having some pretty fun music in the shows.

BOA is nice since it is standardized judging but a lot of school only go to 1-3 BOA comps and Waco is pretty far for a lot of these bands so I'm not sure how many would be there to do much judging for yourself.

Placement definitely means something, but for this specific regional, I would have expected Richardson to be top 4. Should make finals here, state will depend on the day Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SaltySynth Posted yesterday at 08:54 PM Share Posted yesterday at 08:54 PM Does anyone have a video of Forney, Waxahachie, and Rockwall. I haven't been able to see them yet and I'm starting the realize how tight this contest will end up being for the top 4 spots. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
