Brownsville Hanna 4. Edinburg North 5. Weslaco I was really impressed by Edinburg, some really wonderful sounds coming from that band. Another south Texas band that i have to educate myself on. Harlingen rocks the stadium! If your judguing on just sound, its gotta be Harlingen, Bville Vets, and Hannah What do you know bout the south Texas bands? What r ur thoughts?

It’s obvious that no one really agrees with your opinion on Harlingen, also WILKINSON just gave his thoughts on the post you quoted.

MarchingBandNerd805 Posted November 1 Share Posted November 1 Very exciting! Can’t wait! A lot of the top bands are in the first block before the break!! I think that’ll make the judging more accurate 🙏I recently got to hear United.. They have definitely improved a lot wow. We’ll see if it’s enough for finals or state!

The playing just rocks the stadium! I agree the Edinburg schools will be there - sorta entertaining I still say Hanna is meh - dunno what to think - is it cool? IDK, they got that sound, but the rest? It's gonna be Bville Vets in finals for sure No way United makes it - just nope Toss up with Weslaco, PSJA, Los Fresnos. Hey man, as someone from Harlingen we just wanted to let you know your support is greatly appreciated and we can’t wait to see how tomorrow plays out. Good luck to all the bands competing! 🤠 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MarchingBandNerd805 Posted November 1 Share Posted November 1 My predictions 1. Alexander 2. Edinburg North (or 3rd) 3. Edinburg (or 2nd) 4. Weslaco (or 5th) 5. Hanna (or 4th) 6. United 7. Harlingen 8. Psja/ Los Fresnos Literally all of these could be completely wrong! Area G is always close in judging, I wouldn’t be surprised if we see an upset. 4mazingperc 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jd1231 Posted November 1 Share Posted November 1 Weslaco, PSJA, United, Edinburg North, Hanna, Edinburg, Los Fresnos, Harlingen, JBA, are all consistent finals placers. It's always sad to see bands NOT make finals since this competition is so cut throat every year (This year especially). Pretty scary comp!

LITTLE BLUE 456 Posted November 2 Share Posted November 2 It will come down to the wire. All of these schools have been working insanely hard all season. Many new concepts from a lot of them and some great consistency from others. I’m assuming judging will be very picky and hopefully accurate because a lot of times it won’t add up. Laredo schools (United and Alexander) filled two spots and Weslaco has been constantly falling short; I’m sure they’re hungry for it. It’s great to see Harlingen and Hannah picking themselves back up to revive their streaks and great to see Edinburgh getting some recognition as well. It’ll be a close race, let’s wait and see… praying bands have amazing performances! jd1231 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Diego Posted November 2 Share Posted November 2 I think Los Fresnos will make finals today and upset a band like idk Harlingen or United to not make finals. Like a repeat of last year! jd1231 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LITTLE BLUE 456 Posted November 2 Share Posted November 2 My Prelims/MAYBE finals predictions. Will have to see how it plays out with the two weeks they had to clean/clinics attended etc… It will be a close one. PRELIMS: (Maybe possible finals prediction. I’ll update the list if I see anything worth noting during prelims.) Only a couple of hours away until showtime… 1.ALEXANDER 2.EDINBURG 3.WESLACO 4.HANNAH 5.EDINBURG NORTH 6.UNITED 7.HARLINGEN/PSJA/LOS FRESNOS WanderingTraveler 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jd1231 Posted November 3 Share Posted November 3 Wow, what an interesting year. Los Fresnos basically touching state advancement after being last in finals last year. Hanna making a comeback after 3 years. Jba Area G Champ for the 3rd time this decade. Psja NOT making finals after Area G champs last year :0. United getting 4th even with a really young band and staff changes. Congrats to hanna and jba and everyone who participated. This comp never ceases to amaze me lol.

Why are the results so wack? I mean, JBA and Hanna I guess were decent, but.. Harlingen was great! Not even finals??? I can't believe this. LF was the powerhouse - should be at state Congrats to the two going to state, but I guess big and sloppy and gimmicky is the way to go. So like if anyone also attended like me, how bout a breakdown of each band and what you thought? WILKINSON 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kidinband38 Posted November 3 Share Posted November 3 would not say alexander and hanna were sloppy OR gimmicky at all! truly loved what they had to offer and cannot wait to see these bands give it their all in San Antonio.

So like if anyone also attended like me, how bout a breakdown of each band and what you thought? My thoughts are the top 2 bands going to state were not the best ones. I honestly didn’t like Laredo’s show at all. And both of the top 2 bands had safe music. ENHS imo got robbed here, and I think Weslaco at least should have been above Los Fresnos, thats for sure. And yes, I may be biased being as my daughter plays flute for Weslaco. Their music was hard. ENHS and Weslaco consistently beat the other schools at previous competitions.
