Vista Ridge is DESERVEDLY getting the absolute best crowd reaction tonight.

 

Is there room for two LISD-South schools on the podium tonight?

probably not but I can't say I'd be shocked or upset- what a phenomenal run from Vista. Pretty sure they'll leap frog Leander

I really wish FloMarching wouldn't adjust their microphone volume in the middle of shows.  It made it really hard to gauge the music performance.  My guess is that Vandegrift was blowing faces off of everyone, so they turned down the volume, and then when they started playing quieter (since Vandegrift uses this thing called dynamics) they turned the volume back up.  The volume changed like 5 times.

I guess I shouldn't complain.  I have had some good luck during finals so far.  Bad luck at times during prelims.

Reagan keeps me on the edge of my seat for a whole 10 minutes.  I don't even know how they do it.  They don't need any gimmicks, just great performances of great music.

Vista honestly lived up to the hype and holy crap, if any band is challenging Hebron right now, its vista. I can see where the GE caption came from for Reagan, that’s show is full of it and if anything gets them to first, it’ll be the GE.

It's okay, the bands that didn't load in prelims are playing fine but the ones that were fine in prelims aren't so good. My stream is cosmically working out lol

Agreed, I forgot where I was while watching Reagan.

Even though I’ve been to every contest with Hebron and Flower Mound in showing this year, I hadn’t ever seen Flower Mounds full show. But holy wow they just FLOWER POUNDED the field with their FLOWER SOUND and Color.

[bingogooberman]

Saved the best for last? Maybe. That colts helmet gave me a laugh- what does it mean?? A surprise last minute nats trip?

[California Boi]

I have Reagan, Hebron, Vista and CTJ as my top pics. It all depends on how judges emphasize performance and cleanliness in relation to effect. CTJ had excellent effect while Vista was near perfect in their execution, and the other 2 fall within that spectrum.

[LostChoirGuy]

I told myself that I wouldn't make any guesses about results during or after finals, but that I would just enjoy it, so here I am trying not to think about it!

 

[Nny14]

I really like this Flower Mound show, and it's super clean, but it feels super short. The transitions are really weak considering the difference in style of each movement.

LOL no.  The band "morphs" into an old-style military marching band performing at halftime.  Since the logo is covered, they had to bring a logo back out to get there.

[bingogooberman]

My guesswork:

 

1. Flower Mound

2. Hebron

3. Claudia Taylor Johnson

4. Vista Ridge

5. Ronald Reagan

6. Vandegrift

7. Leander

8. The Woodlands

9. Keller

10. Cedar Ridge

11. Marcus

12. Hendrickson

13. LD Bell

14. Westlake

 

Music: Hebron

Visual: Flower Mound

GE: Flower Mound

I’m going to be honest. I’m completely lost, and I was on the field taking photos for the Hebron vs. Flower Mound game.

If you told me Rouse was first out, I wouldn’t be surprised. They definitely fit in with this group. Leander ISD just doesn’t quit tonight!

Umm excuse me, how does Rouse sound this good and why haven’t I heard of them before. They’re amazing, wow just wow is all I have to say.

[FloMoParent]

my prediction:
Take all of the finalists names and pull them out of a hat.  Any one could win

[LostChoirGuy]

Rouse showing everyone that they belong on this field tonight.  We will need to watch out for them in the coming years!

Is there a free live stream of retreat? I've searched and couldn't find it.
