justabandkid94 Posted November 5, 2022 Posted November 5, 2022 Omg, that draw order. You can’t ask for a better direct comparison in the back half of finals. Going to be a thrill. Best of luck to all! ReveriesOp24 1 Quote

Band2021 Posted November 5, 2022 Posted November 5, 2022 I can't wait to see prelims scores I bet there will be some movement especially in the bottom half! Will be great show tonight all bands in finals are outstanding and finals will be non stop action! VinoGirl 1 Quote

Band2021 Posted November 5, 2022 Posted November 5, 2022 I think prelims looked like this based on the awards and finals draw: Panel 1: Ronald Reagan Flower Mound CTJ Marcus Keller Panel 2 Hebron The Woodlands Vandergrift Vista Ridge Cedar Ridge Next 4: Coppell Cedar Park Round Rock Pearland Quote
FaultLineBlues Posted November 5, 2022 Posted November 5, 2022 I wonder if we're gonna see any movement between the two halfs, or if it's more set in stone. Quote

Expand There is virtually zero movement between the bottom and top half. The last time I can remember that happening at San Antonio was in 2017 when Reagan jumped from 8th to 5th. One of the downsides of the bottom half/top half draw in my opinion, but if we were to see that type of movement again I do think this could be the year, as there are some very good bands in the bottom half.

Expand Perhaps, but I think a lot of that has to do with the fact that larger groups are able to add more showstopping GE elements and more complex musical packages. Just because it's not exactly fair doesn't mean that the large groups don't deserve it. Quote

Most years it was really unfair to count leander as 3A given that they were 6A at the same time. Quote

Just because it's not exactly fair doesn't mean that the large groups don't deserve it. Expand As a parent of a kid in a small band (HP) I agree with this. Yeah, it’s hard to go on after The Woodlands, but the kids honestly don’t fret about this and I don’t think we should either. The kids say, “Hey, let’s show everyone what we can do!” And that’s it. My favorite shows today were from giant bands, and they earned their way to finals and I’m cheering for them! Parkwoodmom, An Inspirational Pinecone and Musicguy23 3 Quote

There isn't a single band in Finals that isn't excellent. You will see many of the same bands in Finals on Tuesday and the UIL system is very different from BOA.

Was their comment bitter? Sure. GE does way too much I think though. It should probably be less. MilBandDude 1 Quote
