natertater21000 Posted October 23, 2018 Posted October 23, 2018 You don't see these quite as often with high school shows, super cool perspective of Leander's show. Looks fun to march! meursault 1 Quote

I wonder when they will have drones flying through the band to video the movements. sieun 1 Quote

That is exciting! I like it when a season doesn’t get too predictable! There is no “obvious” top finals half. And might I add, that I am very excited for Rouse! This is the best they have ever been and I can’t wait for them to be added to the BOA Finalists list in the future! Next year, there could be 5 LISD bands in BOA finals Agreed they are on the rise! It is awesome seeing them find their way. I expect great things from them this year and will only get better moving forward. Great music at all the LISD Middle and High Schools with the support of the district. Glenn will probably need a few years before they are in the mix as well. Quote
Samuel Culper Posted October 23, 2018 Posted October 23, 2018 Rouse has made great strides the last two years. I love the music in this year's show, but I feel like the drill is lacking in interest and complexity. Just my two cents. ValleyBandFanatic 1 Quote

If you are considering Flower Mound as a contender you may want to add another band to your watch list. Don't forget Flower Mound's music score at BOA DFW was a tie with Keller. Not bad for a "slow starter". So many great bands? Yep, too many to choose from ahead of time. MikeKyu and meursault 2 Quote
TWHSParent Posted October 23, 2018 Posted October 23, 2018 So the San Antonio final packet lists a time for entry to "Indoor Warmup". It appears they are planning for poor weather this far in advance. I consider that a good move on MFA's part. bassclarinet34 and LeanderMomma 2 Quote
TWHSParent Posted October 23, 2018 Posted October 23, 2018 Oh, and Avon may not be here this year, but Jay Webb will be! He is listed as one of the music judges. LeanderMomma and MikeKyu 2 Quote

TWHSParent Posted October 23, 2018 Posted October 23, 2018 And one last thing I noticed, both Richard Saucedo and Gary Markham will be the Chief Judges. I checked, and there was only 1 Chief Judge at Indianapolis SR, and 1 listed for St. Louis SR. Not sure why San Antonio gets 2? Quote

Stefen Posted October 23, 2018 Posted October 23, 2018 Brandeis HS is on the move this season though... what do you guys think Quote
Band2013 Posted October 24, 2018 Posted October 24, 2018 Very interesting time slots looks like Hendrickson will set the standard. Early Predictions: 1. Claudia Taylor Johnson 2. Ronald Reagan 3. Flower Mound 4. Hebron 5. Leander 6. Vandegrift 7. Keller 8. The Woodlands 9. Vista Ridge 10. James Bowie 11. Cedar Park 12. Marcus 13. Cedar Ridge 14. L.D. Bell 15. Hendrickson 16. Round Rock 17. Cy-Fair 18. Timber Creek 19. Seven Lakes 20. Oak Ridge Quote
Stefen Posted October 24, 2018 Posted October 24, 2018 Hey guys any predictions for the lower band rankings? Quote

Next year will be a big move forward for the band Good prediction but this show has been the best musical year for us in a long time and we have already beat o connor and close to warren Quote
BandGuy2 Posted October 24, 2018 Posted October 24, 2018 Prosper hasn’t been brought up once in these conversations, there was a very small gap between them and a lot of bands at BOA DFW and I know for a fact that prosper has there entire show on the field now and I’m super excited to see it. (I’m biased by the way) Quote

(I’m biased by the way) They definitely have a chance. Their only issue is that 14-23 is anyone's game. An interesting aspect of DFW centered around CP. They were in the bottom half of Austin by 3 points the week before, to the top four at DFW with a two point advantage over Bell. I think part of that is because CP seemed especially challenged by this show for that early in the season. However, there is a good chance they will end up in the bottom half of SA. So you can you then take a look and say: Three bands at DFW ahead of them (FloMo, Hebron, Keller) + Five from Austin (CTJ, Leander, Vandy, VR, Bowie) + Two from Conroe (TWHS and Reagan) = 10 bands. That leaves CP + Three other spots. Hendrickson and CR were within a two point range at Austin and Bell was just at the two point difference at DFW. Marcus is under new direction... maybe they don't have the same Drinkwater gloss, but they may still have that shot at finals. Then you have the late season Rock Stars: Round Rock, Waxahachie, Churchill New blood: Timber Creek, Prosper, Oak Ridge, Cy-Fair, Seven Lakes Quote

So many bands for 14 spots. I wouldn't be surprised if we have bands scoring 90+ again missing finals. Quote
