FerrisHalliwell Posted October 17, 2018 Posted October 17, 2018 I remember there being a thread on this last year, and I couldn't really find another thread about it (although I DID find one about the Western region championships!) It's going to be on October 20th, and hosted in Frisco this year, instead of Arlington. A lot of the performers are returning from last year, it seems, and, again, it seems like a lot of smaller ensembles. https://trigonroad.com/yea/eventDetail.cfm?searchState=&eventID=1878 12:15 PM Group I : Frankston High School (Frankston, TX) 12:30 PM Group I : Nolan Catholic High School (Fort Worth, TX) 12:45 PM Group II : Adamson High School (Dallas, TX) 01:00 PM Group III : Del Valle High School (Del Valle, TX) 01:15 PM Group III : Liberty-Eylau High School (Texarkana, TX) 01:30 PM INTERMISSION 01:45 PM Group IV : Birdville High School (North Richland Hills, TX) 02:00 PM Group IV : Fossil Ridge High School (Fort Worth, TX) 02:15 PM Group IV : DeSoto High School (DeSoto, TX) 02:30 PM Group IV : Cleburne High School (Cleburne, TX) 02:45 PM Group IV : Magnolia West High School (Magnolia, TX) 03:00 PM Group IV : Colleyville Heritage High School (Colleyville, TX) 03:15 PM INTERMISSION 03:30 PM Group V : Lovejoy High School (Lucas, TX) 03:45 PM Group V : North Crowley High School (Ft.

Jeffrey L. Gorman Posted October 17, 2018 Posted October 17, 2018 This is a bad weekend to get a lot of the top Bands involved. On the 20th, weather permitting, 15 of the Regions are hosting their marching contest for UIL with schools such as those in the Austin, San Antonio, Houston, and Rio Grande along with West Texas and the Panhandle. Almost 700 High School Bands will be involved in UIL Regions. The lineup is heavy with Bands from the Metroplex and no other areas. US Bands just does not get the fact that going up against the UIL schedule of Region contests is not a big winner in Band Selection.. Quote

I guess it's a good contest to show off some smaller programs, but it's still a very odd choice. Quote

LostChoirGuy Posted October 21, 2018 Posted October 21, 2018 Hmmm... Never seen Lovejoy's band before. Do they ever participate in BOA? I only know of them because of Cross Country. Quote
