Still probably going to be a wet one here and there but the chance of severe weather has diminished. Expand Yep, if things stay as expected they can still potentially do a finals round & even finish around midnight if necessary as stated in the UIL guidance. There could be pauses to wait for a shower to clear, but finals round hasn't been ruled out yet. Everyone is just staying aware they might only get one shot. Quote

Expand Yeah, I think you have to go in thinking you are only getting one shot and to make it the best you can and then hope to get a final round shot to address any issues. If everything goes off without a hitch it's going to make for a very very long day. SETXgal 1 Quote

The bands this area is sending are super good. Unfortunately, there's only 7 spots with more deserving bands. Some of them will end up empty handed... Quote

Don't they random draw performance order for areas each year? Quote

Usually During the judges meeting at the conclusion of finals, the bands that qualify for state will draw their performance time. Quote

To do that, would be ignoring the potential of what a band may have accomplished during the past 2 weeks. Quote

However. UIL probably will not officially release it on their website until Sunday or Monday. Quote

waynet2010 Posted November 2, 2024 Posted November 2, 2024 Hopefully your guys weather is better than ours in Area A. It’s been pouring since around 4 this morning Quote
viejo Posted November 2, 2024 Posted November 2, 2024 oh my goodness… Pine Tree is a COMPLETELY different band than their princeton run. Everything is clean but their sound is still powerful. The drill looked very defined as well. Quote

Hopefully they are able to thrive in 4A, while PT-ISD has some time to grow. Quote
RJC Posted November 2, 2024 Posted November 2, 2024 Is everything going to schedule? Y’all think there will be finals? Quote
12string4jc Posted November 2, 2024 Posted November 2, 2024 If there is anyone there that can do any kind of live updates, I would greatly appreciate it. I'm stuck at a work thing in Houston and area contests aren't live streamed. Quote
