ATSSBoT Posted September 26, 2024 Posted September 26, 2024 Celina made finals 2 times!! lol You think north lamar is the 4a left out of finals? Last year I believe it finished like this (4a) Canton 5th Celina 6th North Lamar 7th Sulphur Springs 11th (don’t quote me on that, and they also didn’t perform in finals because they went to another comp) On 9/26/2024 at 12:55 AM, Tubalord11 said: Nope, but they schedule is out! 11:15- Como-Pickton HS 11:30- Alba-golden HS 11:45- Whitewright HS 12:00- Whitesboro Lunch break 1:15- Gainesville HS 1:30- Community HS 1:45-Van Alstyne HS 2:00- Pine Tree HS 2:15- Sulphur Springs HS 2:30-Celina Break 3:00- Grand Saline HS 3:15- Sherman HS 3:30- Frisco Liberty HS 3:45- Canton HS 4:00- Royse City HS 4:15- Prosper HS 12 to finals, finals starts at 7 PM with class exhibitions for 2A and 3A if needed starting at 6:30.

GarbagePatchKid Posted September 30, 2024 Posted September 30, 2024 Celina beat Libery this past Saturday at Melissa. We will see if they can do it again. I would like to see Canton over Sulphur. Pine Tree had a really bad run at their contest yesterday. I saw a video of their performance and it was definitely much better at the football game. Hopefully it will work out better for them at Princeton. Quote
warriontasm Posted September 30, 2024 Posted September 30, 2024 Updated schedule, Mineola has entered the contest, performing after Whitesboro.... Quote
GarbagePatchKid Posted September 30, 2024 Posted September 30, 2024 I love Mineola and they are SO talented! Definitely going to change things up. Quote
BandDad85 Posted September 30, 2024 Posted September 30, 2024 Does anyone know where to buy tickets for this? I looked on the Princeton Band's Facebook page and website and don't see a link for tickets. Quote

Pine Tree 9. Canton 10. Whitesboro Expand This one almost feels like Hebron at Mesquite…. It’s Prosper and everybody else. i enjoyed Royse City’s show Friday night. They do a lot with benches made out to be church pews. I like Sulpher as a dark horse to make top 5! Quote
TexasStrangers Posted October 1, 2024 Posted October 1, 2024 I got a feeling this is going to be a great show even before Mineola getting added today. Can we edit our picks with the addition of Mineola? If I remember, I may be wrong but Mineola (3A) made it to Finals last year in Melissa and also was ahead of Celina last year at prelims in Royse City but eventually took 2nd at state behind Whitesboro.

Expand Sulfur Springs looks really good, they placed higher than Celina in the finals. Prosper was amazing as expected. In my opinion Liberty was the surprise of the show they took 2nd place and their show is really good. Quote

GarbagePatchKid Posted October 23, 2024 Posted October 23, 2024 I don’t want to dox myself but I had an interesting conversation a few days ago with a friend of mine who has judged this contest. He said the road noise from 380 makes this a very hard contest to judge. He said unless the band is blasting, you cannot hear it clearly. All the quiet moments get lost. I knew the scuttlebutt this year was that the judging here was inconsistent. Figured what he said, if true, make sense. Quote
