Band_dad_of_2 Posted September 23, 2019 Posted September 23, 2019 Good grief I wish I was in Austin for this!!! What a competition! LeanderMomma 1 Quote
TWHSParent Posted September 23, 2019 Posted September 23, 2019 I think 5 of the first 6 performing bands will be in finals (apologies to Wagner). Add Leander, Cedar Park, Vandegrift, James Bowie, and CTJ. Top half being CTJ, Vandegrift, Leander, Vista Ridge, and.... don't know. Lets say James Bowie. Round Rock, Rouse, Cedar Ridge, Cedar Park, and Hendrickson rounding out the top 10 (in no particular order other than top/bottom 5). Quote
MarchingBandLife Posted September 23, 2019 Posted September 23, 2019 My current predictions for BOA Austin: 1) CTJ/Vandegrift 2) Vandegrift/CTJ 3) Leander/Vista Ridge 4) Vista Ridge/Leander 5) Cedar Park 6) Round Rock 7) James Bowie 8) Cedar Ridge 9) Hendrickson 10) Rouse Quote

I can't count out Westwood and Pflugerville just yet, but seeing lisd make up half of finals at boa Austin is a dream of mine. BandFan95 1 Quote

I agree. I also considered Lake Travis and Del Rio. But this close to the contest I had to make the cuts. Maybe there will be a surprise from someone we don't expect. Quote
LeanderMomma Posted September 23, 2019 Author Posted September 23, 2019 Could be Vista Ridge and Leander battling it out for 1st. I love this particular competition so much. Other than the crazy hot days, it’s my favorite! abbytheflute 1 Quote

FaultLineBlues Posted September 23, 2019 Posted September 23, 2019 1) CTJ 2) Leander 3) Vista Ridge/Vandy 4) Vista Ridge/Vandy 5) Cedar Park 6) Cedar Ridge/Round Rock 7) Round Rock/Cedar Ridge 8) Bowie 9) Hendrickson 10) John Horn/Rouse/Westwood These are probably gonna be wrong all over the place, but it's fun to predict. I think the new finalist could be any of those three bands, but I'm especially leaning towards John Horn after being impressed by their performance at State Prelims last year. I expect to be wrong about Bowie, because they're always really solid at this contest, but since I haven't seen anything from them so far, I'm just putting them at 8th. CTJ is always solid at this regional, so it's fair to predict they're going to do well, and Leander has a great show that they're performing well, but I expect to see it grow more over the season and peak later on.

sorrul Posted September 23, 2019 Posted September 23, 2019 1. Vista Ridge 2. Leander 3. Claudia Taylor Johnson 4. Vandegrift 5. Cedar Ridge 6. James Bowie 7. Cedar Park 8. Round Rock 9. Hendrickson 10. Westwood BandFan95 1 Quote
youcansound Posted September 23, 2019 Posted September 23, 2019 On the predictions page it shows that this competition has a percussion caption??? Is this factual Quote
LeanderMomma Posted September 23, 2019 Author Posted September 23, 2019 Cedar Park makes top 5. Quote

principalagent Posted September 23, 2019 Posted September 23, 2019 I’ve got one. Three RRISD and five LISD-S. Quote

gregorydf01 Posted September 23, 2019 Posted September 23, 2019 Need 11 spots in FInals: 3 RRISD, 5 LISD, CTJ, Bowie and Hendrickson. Too many good bands and not enough spots for all Quote

BlueCircle Posted September 24, 2019 Posted September 24, 2019 Hoping for a tie for 10th so we can see 11 perform in finals, this competition is too insane Quote
