Aggie921 Posted October 3, 2021 Posted October 3, 2021 Area is 3 weeks away! A lot of bands in this area have been taking huge strides for those spots to state. How do you think this will play out? Quote
Tubalord11 Posted October 5, 2021 Posted October 5, 2021 1-2: Lonestar/Wakeland 3-5 Wylie East,Lovejoy and Lebanon Trial 6-10Heritage, Mckinney North, Reedy, Colony, Centennial,Liberty and this is not predictions just where I think these bands will make finals and could land in these spots but anything could change in a couple of weeks!

Time Warp Posted October 6, 2021 Posted October 6, 2021 Wakeland is a lock for state. I’m willing to put money on it. Quote

It will be a really tough battle for the other presumed 2 spots between (hopefully) my school Lebanon Trail, Lovejoy, and Wylie East. Haven't heard much from other schools but I don't doubt that there will be another one or two schools caught in the mix. I'm not sure where Centennial will end up this year though, cause they're a really young band this year and don't have the numbers they had pre-pandemic. I'm pulling for them though because I know a lot of people there and they really are a great program, just dealt a lot of really bad cards the past 5 years. Expand Who will take first? Quote

Aggie921 Posted October 13, 2021 Author Posted October 13, 2021 Also there could be 3-4 state spots depending on how many bands get 1’s this upcoming weekend. If there’s 3 state spots this year, then surely this area competition will be quite the battle. Quote
Tubalord11 Posted October 13, 2021 Posted October 13, 2021 I think most of the bands here are great enough to get a 1 and have 4 finals but 3 would definitely make it a heck of a contest Quote

Expand I definitely agree. Although they did lose to Wakeland at dfw, I think that 1-3 is at this point between lovejoy, lonestar and Wakeland, and 4 either Wylie East(who I think) or LT. Mainly based on how Mckinney and BOA dfw went Quote
BandFan59 Posted October 15, 2021 Posted October 15, 2021 Lone Star and Wakeland are locks to advance to state for me. I think Wakeland is going to finish top 5 at state competing with Cedar Park, Leander, Rouse, and Highland Park. They have a really good show this year that I think will be great in a UIL setting. Lone Star has had a very good season so far and has a good shot at making state finals as well. For the other bands here I'd say Wylie East, Lovejoy, and and Lebanon Trail are probably at the front of the pack for the remaining state spots, however many there are left. Quote

They're really good. Quote
Tubalord11 Posted October 20, 2021 Posted October 20, 2021 Only 3 more day until this contest!!! Thoughts? Quote
TrumpetDad Posted October 20, 2021 Posted October 20, 2021 I volunteered at the region and from what I saw, Wakeland and Lonestar are locks. The other 2 spots are up for grabs between the remaining 8 finalist. In my opinion it could be any of them punching their tickets. They all seem to be so close to each other that judges preference will probably have a big impact here. Tubalord11 1 Quote

TrumpetDad Posted October 21, 2021 Posted October 21, 2021 Lebanon was good and definitely in the hunt for a state birth. 3-10 are gonna be so close! Quote
Zaroth Posted October 21, 2021 Posted October 21, 2021 I think it’ll definitely be close. I have a feeling Wylie East, Lovejoy, and Lebanon Trail will be fighting for final 2 state spots with Wakeland and Lone Star for sure taking top 2 Quote
