LostChoirGuy Posted September 18, 2019 Posted September 18, 2019 I'm a Memphis girl who went to college in Arkansas (Harding University). I have friends from Paragould. Ooh- I considered going to Harding! I have several friends that did. What a great school. Quote
LeanderMomma Posted September 18, 2019 Posted September 18, 2019 Ooh- I considered going to Harding! I have several friends that did. What a great school. It’s a fantastic school! I was a Harding Academy kid too. K - 12 in Memphis. We had a great band back in the day. Quote
FloMoParent Posted September 19, 2019 Posted September 19, 2019 My wife and I are Arkansas kids. I went to North Little Rock Northeast HS (didn't participate in band past Jr. High) and my wife went to Lake Hamilton HS outside of Hot Springs (they have participated at BOA Grand Nats in several of the past few years) Quote

Last year they worked with a couple of the assistant directors from TWHS (percussion and guard). LeanderMomma and FloMoParent 2 Quote

Yeah, I think you told me that your kids are at University of Arkansas? Or maybe that's someone else....anyway, I'm definitely very familiar with those areas! My in-laws live in White Hall (just outside of Pine Bluff) so we did a lot of shopping at McCain Mall over the years. And Lake Hamilton is such a beautiful area. I've vacationed there many times.

youcansound Posted September 19, 2019 Posted September 19, 2019 What are the odds our Oklahoma friends at Owasso make finals? I’d REALLY like to see out of state representation at a REGIONAL!! But there is A LOT of competition! So many a lot of so many great bands here! They’re all so good! Quote
LostChoirGuy Posted September 19, 2019 Posted September 19, 2019 I think the odds are decent. Probably about 50%. I don't know how their early season performances typically are. Quote
Magma31651 Posted September 19, 2019 Posted September 19, 2019 1. Flower Mound 2. Hebron 3. Keller 4. Cedar Park 5. Timber Creek 6. LD Bell 7. Marcus 8. Prosper 9. Waxahacie (probably isn't spelled correctly) 10. Keller Central/Owasso Quote

Trumpetman7 Posted September 20, 2019 Posted September 20, 2019 Marcus has been taking some hits lately but I think they’ll be making a comeback soon. Quote
alex9809 Posted September 20, 2019 Posted September 20, 2019 I honestly wanna see Hebron in first place. Quote
LeanderMomma Posted September 20, 2019 Posted September 20, 2019 I honestly wanna see Hebron in first place. I believe they will be! Quote
alex9809 Posted September 20, 2019 Posted September 20, 2019 But honestly I think we are really in for a treat from LD Bell. I just saw their show from their Thursday night game. And they are not the bell that have been on that field in the past few years. Quote
alex9809 Posted September 20, 2019 Posted September 20, 2019 Always a fan of anything Bell Well I might be a little biased! Quote
DeepEllum Posted September 20, 2019 Posted September 20, 2019 I’d love to see LD Bell return to their glory days, here’s to hoping this year is great for them. Quote
josephbandfan Posted September 20, 2019 Posted September 20, 2019 1. Hebron 2. Flower Mound 3. Keller 4. Marcus 5. LD Bell 6. Timber Creek 7. Waxahachie 8. Coppell 9. Prosper 10. Keller Central - 11. Owasso 12. Wakeland 13. James Martin Quote
BlueCircle Posted September 20, 2019 Posted September 20, 2019 Bell has been so consistently great these pas free years even if they are as dominant as they used to be. I’m confident that they will still be top half at this competition. Quote
josephbandfan Posted September 20, 2019 Posted September 20, 2019 I know if 2 bands tie for 10th place, they both perform in finals. But what if more than 2 bands tie for 10th? Quote
alex9809 Posted September 20, 2019 Posted September 20, 2019 I know if 2 bands tie for 10th place, they both perform in finals. But what if more than 2 bands tie for 10th? Has that ever happened before? Quote
Guest Posted September 20, 2019 Posted September 20, 2019 Has that ever happened before? 1996 Denton regional, Haltom, Richland, and Lewisville all scored an 83.90 and 12 bands performed in finals Quote
LeanderMomma Posted September 20, 2019 Posted September 20, 2019 Interesting. I guess this is part of the reason BOA has changed their scoring system a little bit to go something like 92.027 rather than just 92.02. Quote
meursault Posted September 20, 2019 Posted September 20, 2019 Prosper and TC are undergoing significant staff changes this year, no? I hope the absolute best for both programs that they have a good transition and the new staff is a good fit!!!! Quote
