LeanderMomma Posted October 5, 2017 Posted October 5, 2017 In looking at the predictions page for this contest, I'm noticing quite a large number of folks who are slating Ronald Reagan to take it all at Conroe on Saturday. I'm so curious as to why that is. Not that I don't think they can, because they obviously can, but after dropping a bit in the rankings last year, why are people still predicting them to win in such great numbers? Is there something I don't know about their show this year? Just an observation, of course. Ronald Reagan is an amazing band for sure! Quote

Cabbitt Posted October 6, 2017 Posted October 6, 2017 So proud of Weiss! They are all freshmen and sophomores. Hendrickson was rezoned. I expect big things from Weiss as their program continues to grow. Quote
PSHSMom Posted October 7, 2017 Posted October 7, 2017 Does anyone know anyrhing about Seven Lakes? The band director there use to teach years ago at Clark HS in Plano and made a huge impact there. Clark is a 9th and 10th grade school and he moved on eventually to a higher level position. Now he is at Seven Lakes and I can't help wonder about the band. Quote
Guest Posted October 7, 2017 Posted October 7, 2017 There a good program, but I would be surprised to see them in finals. Quote

I think one thing to note is that if we look at the past two years they've had pretty high quality early season execution since Morrison took over, while the Woodlands takes their time to grow.

principalagent Posted October 7, 2017 Posted October 7, 2017 Seven Lakes!!! The welcome surprise of the first block. I wish they didn’t lose rehearsal time. I for sure would have them in but I think performance will hurt their chances. Loved it!! Xenon 1 Quote
Xenon Posted October 7, 2017 Posted October 7, 2017 That was by far the best Seven Lakes show that I've seen. But you are absolutely right that the lost rehearsal time hurt. Quote
Xenon Posted October 7, 2017 Posted October 7, 2017 FYI in case you didn't read it on the blog. Coppell had transportation issues this morning and couldn't make it to Conroe, so they have pulled out here and will be performing at HEB at 12:00pm instead. Quote
LKendrick Posted October 7, 2017 Posted October 7, 2017 I love when a band comes on and shell shocks you outta nowhere. Pearland was AWESOME!!! That show could go a really really really long way this season. jmartin1056 and principalagent 2 Quote
Danpod Posted October 7, 2017 Posted October 7, 2017 We see you, Pearland!! NTxBandMom8 and LKendrick 2 Quote
jmartin1056 Posted October 7, 2017 Posted October 7, 2017 Pearland has been the standout group to me! Amazing performances by all groups so far! (Bowie was obviously better, but I'm talking more shock value) Quote
jmartin1056 Posted October 7, 2017 Posted October 7, 2017 The woodlands was absolutely wonderful! That is a national championship quality show. Parkwoodmom 1 Quote
Hard Core Band Fan Posted October 7, 2017 Posted October 7, 2017 Thanks Flo Sports for once again running ads during a band's performance today. About 1/3 the way into Round Rock's performance, they ran multiple ads. They did this last week at Southlake during 2 of the bands. Just halftime music to these guys I guess! Quote

jmartin1056 Posted October 7, 2017 Posted October 7, 2017 Wow Leander! They had an incredibly energetic run. Could see them passing RR today. LeanderMomma 1 Quote
LKendrick Posted October 7, 2017 Posted October 7, 2017 Love love loved prelims.........tons of great shows. Too many to talk about at once for me, Ronald Reagan capped it off amazingly though. Some absolutely stunning moments, effects, and packaging there. Quote
LKendrick Posted October 7, 2017 Posted October 7, 2017 Will say shoutout to Pearland for what I think is an absolutely landmark show for them, that's the most I've ever enjoyed a show from them. NTxBandMom8 1 Quote
