After watching their performances, these would be my top 5

 

1. Edinburg 

2. Laredo Alexander

3. 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.

Really???

Harlingen all the way!  Did you see how clean it was? 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!  🤠

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!

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!

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

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.

OMG I can't believe this contest!  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?

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.
