rouseglazer1 Posted October 31 Share Posted October 31 not entirely related but still somewhat related to smbc, a few years back I believe dallas highland park was dominating the 5a smbc scene and now it seems like they're struggling even just in their own area. does anyone know anything about this? sidi 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

While the performance area is sheltered within the Alamodome, all props and equipment are unloaded in the open air parking lot, and the front ensemble warm up areas are also outside in the elements. That means all of the synth carts and other electronics will be at least somewhat exposed. I really hope the rain holds off and doesn't affect the equipment. Yes, and interfering with last-minute rehearsals! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think they’ve got a super strong shot at finals!! Have been consistently at the top of the comps they’ve attended, and they have a good performance time, so as long as they have a clean run I think they’ve got a serious shot WanderingTraveler 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WanderingTraveler Posted November 1 Share Posted November 1 7 minutes ago, underdogthegoat said: thoughts on colleyville heritage?? i feel like they could make finals but on the predict they are ranked 13th so far... Just as a general rule, I wouldn’t trust the overall prediction ratings, although it can be good to get a general idea of whats going on. I think CH is in the mix of bands fighting for like 8-15 where a few will unfortunately be left out. As we saw at their Area finals, it can sort of come down to the run. So if they have a stellar run to not only beat out their Area-mates, BC and Midlothian, but a few the others fighting for those spots, they could be higher. its just tough with how strong 5A is getting to predict anything and the “finals tenures” are starting to get more and more set (not that its a real thing).

Richland has a better show this year than last years state finals. They just need to perform and let the cards fall where they may. I’ve been to several State contest with this group and seen some crazy stuff when it comes to judging. For example last year didn’t see Aledo not making finals and Richland did. Richland band and directors are wonderful. Yes we would like to make finals but it’s about continuing to improve each season and continuing the rich history this band has. Any band making it to State can hold there head high and know they are in a special group of 5A bands. Go Richland Band we are proud of you!

utee94 Posted November 3 Share Posted November 3 Welcome back, txbands forum. Guess there was a little too much site traffic yesterday, with all of the 4A and 6A Area comps, plus all the weather drama. Speaking of weather drama, tomorrow's San Antonio forecast has rain chances peaking at 54%, right at 8 AM, which is our scheduled unload time in the Alamodome parking lot. Ugh, really hoping the rain stays away. LeanderMomma and WanderingTraveler 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post WanderingTraveler Posted November 4 Popular Post Share Posted November 4 I will try to provide some degree of coverage for those who can’t attend this contest.
