Yes, but not all those extra ticket master fees. I think I'll just buy a $69 super ticket for me and my 2 girls at the window, and both of their college IDs will save me $10. Plus the dome fee will only be charged once per Super ticket. Our finals seats may suck but it's a chance I'll have to take. I can't justify spending $50 x 3 simply for finals tickets alone!

 

Oh, I am completely with you. I only splurged a bit this year because ours is a junior and this is his last opportunity for Indy. I also only had to buy 1 ticket since my wife is getting a field pass.

Yeah, since I'm now just a spectator and no longer a band parent, I have to keep costs down if I'm going to justify going to every BOA within 3 hours of Austin! :D

So just as a quick note: 2 years ago when Cedar Park brought their UIL show to SA they got 5th. now this is not to say they will get 5th again this year but this is to note that it seems the Cedar Park design team may know how to make their UIL shows perform well at SA. Also, and I know Richland won't be here, but it is looking incredibly likely that Cedar Park may be the only 5A band in finals.

2015 was just a very good season for them. They're a good band, but they probably won't end up in the top half of finals.

Not sure I'd have a scoring bubble anywhere this year.

If accurate, there are some FASCINATING groupings in that prelims schedule that will allow for some very direct comparisons of bands in some key tiers. 

 

[Cedar Park - Cedar Ridge - Vista Ridge - Round Rock] - some fun name games in that grouping

 

[Keller Central - Keller - Timber Creek] - Suprise - Keller ISD has planned one continuous 45 min show that hands off between each band.

 

[Vandy - TWHS - Hebron] - Yum...Medal Battle

 

This will be fun.

I was not at all suggesting that sorry if it came across that way. I'm more reading into the point the Cedar Park may be the only 5A band we see in Finals just due to how well their UIL shows do at BOA SA.

Decided to get flights on somewhat of a whim. I couldn't not go, especially since I've loved every show I've seen from the potential finalists.

 

Come on down!!!

 

BTW, where are you flying in from?
