LHSbandDad Posted October 25, 2019 Posted October 25, 2019 The best fajitas in San Antonio is at Taco Palenque. Also, go to Pico De Gallo or Mi Tierra! Mi Tierra is a tourist trap but delicious! And the bakery is awesome. I just got an email from MFA about the tickets. They said that they have all been shipped. But if I don’t get them by Thursday of next week, they would leave some at will call for me! I got a similar email. They also said GN tickets go out next week. Quote

jrglinares Posted October 25, 2019 Posted October 25, 2019 You should definitely head down to the Riverwalk and explore all of the shops and restaurants around there. You should also check out the area around the Alamo, Rivercenter mall, and La Villita. My favorite restaurant that I go to every year when I'm down for BOA San Antonio is Rosario's which isn't on the Riverwalk but is fairly close. Rosarios is good but, a block north is Francis Bogside. They have great food and burgers are AWESOME. Its a small quiet place but, VERY nice! Quote

1998-2018 Posted October 25, 2019 Posted October 25, 2019 Marcus and Hebron pulling the EARLY time slots is a bit unfortunate for them Last year Vista Ridge drew an early performance time like that. Their run was like an awesome double shot of espresso for the crowd. And for the band? It started the kind of week everyone dreams about. Marcus and Hebron should have no trouble making Finals from that performance time, even if everyone involved would prefer to be sleeping. Speaking of sleep, they might even go back to the Hotel for a nap while we all stay and tensely watch a long day of drama unfold. I can't wait! Quote
LostChoirGuy Posted October 25, 2019 Posted October 25, 2019 Yikes that is early! Everything is an hour earlier for me here in Utah, too. Quote

There’s one little area down by all the T-shirt vendors where they sell coffee and pastries in the mornings but you would think there would be a coffee kiosk. My daughter and I plan to be there bright and early, watch awhile and then go find some lunch downtown. I’m digging the new way they are doing the schedule now where they block the powerhouses together rather than spread them out all day long. Same with GN. More time to explore! EDIT: Apologizing for the EXTREME insensitivity of my comment. Quote

Sad for those who aren't "powerhouses" though. When half the crowd gets up and leaves when a band takes the field. kold 1 Quote

Hawtenso Posted October 25, 2019 Posted October 25, 2019 Hey, can any predict what Cedar Park, Cedar Ridge, Coppell, Bowie and Westwood are at score wise? Also, do you think Bowie's score was inflated because of lack of competition (I am just wondering) As in predict, I mean that if you recently saw any of these bands and you had to give them a score, what would it be. I know there are many factors but just a rough estimate Quote

Hawtenso Posted October 25, 2019 Posted October 25, 2019 No offense, but it is pretty much impossible to predict a score. I totally agree but if you had to give a very rough score what would you think or at least good do you think they are for finals contention Quote
Astros Posted October 25, 2019 Posted October 25, 2019 Look at the bright side there will be some great seats opening up! Quote
BlueCircle Posted October 25, 2019 Posted October 25, 2019 I totally agree but if you had to give a very rough score what would you think or at least good do you think they are for finals contention I’d say that at least 2 of the bands you mentioned will make finals, and the others (if they don’t make it) would all be in the top 20. Quote
BlueCircle Posted October 25, 2019 Posted October 25, 2019 Which two bands? Probably Cedar Ridge because they are a consistent finalist and Bowie because of how good they did at Waco. But anything could happen and it wouldn’t be surprising to see any combination of those bands in finals. Quote
