packwick Posted October 31 Share Posted October 31 6A judging panel: Tim Gray, Marty Griffin, Jeff Harper, Doug Henderson, Nola Jones, Steven Page, John Phillips, Warren Rickart, and Jay Webb music ones - marty (perc/ens), jeff (ens), nola (ens/ww?), steven (brass), john (ens), and jay (perc/ens) visual ones - doug, warren, and... Tim? newer one for me. i'm aware of Michael Gray, not Tim Gray. apparently he judges effect for wgi winds. maybe design/content then? actually, Nola could be either vis or music, tho she seems to always judge music these days. not sure the last time i saw her on a vis caption. 2011??

TrenBS Posted October 31 Share Posted October 31 I wouldnt mind some artificial slots (wont happen, of course) in the hyper competitive areas since last year we had 43. Area J, B, and D in particular are leaving out really strong groups with very little wiggle for bands that would realistically place in the 18-25 range, area D is notoriously the most competitive area, usually leaving Cedar (FREAKIN) Ridge, Moe and Gene Johnson, and Bowie, who are all state finalist contending groups MAYBE besides Bowie, but they are still in the 10s nowadays imo. If I were to add 4 (38-42) slots that keep it competitive I would do this: area A: 2 area B: 4-5 area C 4 area D 4-6 area E 5 area F 4 area G 2 area H 4 area I 4 area J 4-5 BandAlumMom 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post Oboeish20 Posted October 31 Popular Post Share Posted October 31 The EXPECTED amount of bands to advance to the state contest AS OF 10/31: Area A: 2 Area B: 4 Area C: 4 Area D: 5 Area E: 5 Area F: 5 Area G: 2 Area H: 4 Area I: 4 Area J: 4 Expected total: 39 Finals number: 12 My information is confirmed and accurate unlike some people's. We have to remember that more groups could advance to the state contest based off of the "bad judge rule" that can be found on the UIL website. If just 1 more band advances to the state contest, we would see 14 groups in finals. mussheet, BandAlumMom and Miyazuu 2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
seafoodbuffet Posted October 31 Share Posted October 31 It was fun seeing new faces in state finals last year, I’m just struggling to imagine which incumbent finalist is going to get pushed out. cedar ridge might displace someone but they’re not exactly a “fresh face” Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

F has military marching 6A bands that have stopped competing in area marching but still inflate the number of bands that qualify to state out of the area since they received 1s at region.

(Lack of funding, no private lessons, no additional techs, smaller enrollments, etc. etc.) Why do you think those areas you mentioned deserve more representation simply based upon a pre-conceived perception of greatness? Flame away. tubapop and BandAlumMom 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
homerchap Posted November 3 Share Posted November 3 I'm guessing the final schedule won't be posted until Area C competes and there's not way to figure it out using the draw order schedule? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LostChoirGuy Posted November 3 Share Posted November 3 So to clarify, with Area A getting a third band to qualify to state, do we now have enough bands at state for 14 finalists? I saw some comments about area I only getting four qualifiers, but it looks like that's all that was expected. (And yes, I know we still need Area C results, but they should have at least 4 qualify) BandAlumMom 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
