Just saw this announced via the US Bands Instagram and website 

https://usbands.org/events/details.php?ID=1015

Not super familiar with US Bands stuff but this lineup definitely caught my attention.

Coppell HS 

Duncanville HS 

Flower Mound HS 

Hebron HS 

Keller Central HS

Southlake Carroll HS 

Marcus HS 

LD Bell HS

 

I think this’ll be interesting to see some of the DFW groups in action right before state and BOA San Antonio!

Yes, US Bands is introducing a World Class, and it seems this is a sort of test run. Regardless, it will be very interesting to see how this comp shakes out, first time having all these heavy hitters at US Bands!!

oooh, BOA, gurl, USBands is coming 4 u!! lol

i like that they have separate judges for perc and color guard, tho not sure they're actually included in the overall score. also looks like they sometimes do double panels. (ya see that, BOA??)

im still adamant that the best system would be the 40-30-30 one used by DCI, just replace "brass" with "winds." also double the effect panels for major events.

This is very interesting. Coincidentally my band from home is going to another USBand Event in Alabama. Hoping they livestream this event cause I'd love to see Hebron's performance before I board my flight to San Antonio that week.

This will be fun!

I definitely like how USBands is adding a contest for the best of the best in the state. It would be really cool if this contest was LOADED with talent in all of Texas, instead of just DFW area bands. This could potentially be BOA SA's competitor in the future.

Early Predictions!

1st - Hebron

2nd - Marcus

3rd - Flower Mound

4th - Coppell

5th - L.D. Bell

6th - Southlake Carroll

7th - Keller Central

8th - Duncanville

I can honestly see 1st, 2nd, & 3rd swapping placements.

My thoughts exactly

It is REALLY nice to have a BOA SA level finalists with a competition in DFW, hopefully, this becomes BOA SA for the DFW bands that can't justify doing a 5.5-hour drive before SMBC, or for bands who arent consistent with state qualifying (area J and B having prime candidates)

ANDDDDD, because I love watching great bands in late season, don't often have an opportunity to go to SA, I'm probably gonna have to add this one to the calendar haha

I will definitely be going. I’m sure I won’t have classes interfering with the start time lol. It’ll be nice to see strong competition in the local area

Yes. Still struggling with far too little information about how to handle Volunteers. They provide instructions for spectators and the band itself, but nothing in between.

We use a massive parent crew for loading/unloading, Pit, and Props.
