I heard there is a UIL meeting tomorrow at 1pm to make a final decision on Poteet
the terminator Posted October 31, 2011 Posted October 31, 2011 I would come just to see Robert Griffin perform, unfortunately my band is in the morning at 9 AM too Maybe finals then? Can I get student tickets even though I'm in college, does anyone know?

We have had a little bit of conflicting information regarding what exactly happened. At first, it was a "minor" error. Now, it's turned in to something that could potentially keep them out of the State Contest. Nevertheless, I have edited my "Notes" post to reflect the pending status of Poteet. We hope to get some official word on what's going on here very soon.

I don't look forward to our group going at 10:30 and then having to wait for 6 hours for results. lol. The waaaiiiting is the hardest part... I'm with you on pretty much all of your picks. I think with the way things have been going for Lake Travis, I wouldn't be surprised if they were chosen to perform on Tuesday night.

EternalFlame Posted October 31, 2011 Posted October 31, 2011 That second block is going to be a killer. Dripping Springs followed by Dawson with Poteet two bands down the line....that's going to be insane. The judges better be ready to makes some really tough calls...
Donezo Posted October 31, 2011 Posted October 31, 2011 Regardless of the outcome of the hearing, I think Poteet is contending for an 8-10 spot unless they really clean up. I won't count them out for finals, but top five could be a long shot. They seem to be struggling a bit with the new staff. The show is very visually demanding as always, but they're not executing at the level they usually do around Area time. It is a bit telling that two judges had them in 4th in area finals, but perhaps it's also telling that they picked up several 1st rankings throughout the day when I thought it could have been a total blow out for Waxahachie. They may prove to be a bit divisive. However, this is a group that tends to peak at the right time, so who knows. The same is true of Friendswood, who I expect to beat Dawson in San Antonio and finish in the top three.
borchnork Posted November 1, 2011 Posted November 1, 2011 I'm in love with the judging panel. Just saying. <3
Cookie_MonsterSR Posted November 1, 2011 Posted November 1, 2011 If Poteet is disqualified, who would you put in their spot for finals?

Agent113 Posted November 1, 2011 Posted November 1, 2011 What about Lake Travis? They got 2nd at 4A Finals saturday...

Yeah, if you noticed, I only picked 9 cus I'm soooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo Unsure of the other bands that I would put into the top 10. If it's based on music as I think it will be, I could see it easily being Lake Travis.
