Ooooooh. Now we are talking.  Surely one of the old awkward family photographers could be a visual judge.

I say we commission Jerry Jones to let us use the Star for marching competitions. TX HS bands is just as big in Texas as football and I’m tired of people pretending it’s not (Joker said it first right) nothing going on at that facility in the fall time anyway 🤷🏿‍♂️

Alright since everyone is doing it. Here’s my

Musically literate, band dad, mostly unbiased 

predictions for Saturday 

1. Duncanville, I was in the press Box last Friday when I saw their show, don’t know if that makes a difference but wow! 
 

2. Waxahachie, I saw their show 3 Fridays ago. I mean it didn’t grab my attention really but musically their intonation was great, drill was great, performance was spot on and that’s all that matters 

3. Forney, I only heard them at region and what I heard was spectacular!! Don’t know what their drill Is like solely basing it off of music 

4. John Horn: hey I said mostly unbiased lmao 🤣 Sáchse, Rockwall, Heath, or north Forney might have a chance. I have not heard JJ Pearce myself. I guess I’m just basing it off of bands I’ve seen or heard live. 
 

And there you have it!!

Rip richardson’s tarp and pearce’s carpets, i have a feeling those will not make an appearance due to rain/wind on Saturday.  

I’m just hoping we see a band we don’t expect make state like berkner last year

While my predictions are wildy different compared to yours (Wax, Forney, Rockwall/Sachse/Dville) I respect the commitment and the John Horn appreciation, I saw them at area 2018 in their prime, so I hope they can make it back to area finals/state eventually haha

[JFNDOWBFAN]

I have been waiting for my big "500th" post to come and here it is....

I declare, predict, manifest...... THE Orange Wave Band from Rockwall, Texas will advance to the STATE MARCHING CONTEST in the 1-4th position....(the official prediction contest I have them 2....but I think anywhere 1-4 is possible!  Peaking at the right time!

Anyone have their final predictions for tomorrow?

1. Waxahachie

3. Forney 

4. Rockwall/Duncanville

5. D-ville/Rockwall 

6. JJ Pearce 

7. North Forney 

8. Berkner 

9. Lake Highlands 

10. Royce City 

 

At this point, I don't know how to feel about Forney. We haven't seen them in almost a month, and tbh I could see them getting fifth at not making it. I really hope they are able to bounce back and have been able to get a ton of cleaning in, but at this point my only lock for state is Waxahachie. Hoping the weather clears up for tomorrow 🙏

Wait really?? Would love to know where you got this information, I believe you, I just feel like UIL would have at least waited till tomorrow to make a decision.

I'm not familiar with the geographical extent of this Area, but for anyone more than 60 miles or so, it makes sense to give them as much of a heads-up as possible.  Waiting until the day-of, the furthest bands could already be on the road.

Trust me when I say all we have done is clean, we didn't attend a competition because our director said he would rather us get cleaner. That is why we haven't been seen in a bit.
