I am trying to recall a time when a band only won the visual caption and placed 1st. If anyone knows of one please let me know :)

Just off the top of my head, Lawrence Central winning Grand Nats in 2004. Carmel also won with only the music performance caption in 2012. It is rare, though.

Lawrence Central also won Grand Nats in 2001 with NO captions. An extremely rare oddity. Besides Leander winning BOA Austin 2015 with no captions, I don't believe it's ever happened again.

Carmel in 2012 is probably the best comparison here, since the same band won the other 2 captions. Cedar Ridge would have to be Broken Arrow 2012 in this situation, which I would be shocked to see.

Similar situation in 2006 at BOA SA. Marcus won music and GE and got 3rd because of their visual score. More band trivia!

Is BOX 5 down for anyone else? 


At least I got to see the first 5 seconds of Foster then got to watch them walk off the field. 

Bravo BOX5.

Not the best run from CTJ, looks like they were having some electronic issues as the first soloists in the opener couldn't be heard at all. Despite that, I think they had a really good run musically, managing to nail some pretty difficult technical passages. The tenor sax soloist is very talented. I also have to say this ballad is starting to grow on me the more I listen to it; I really love the big hit once the vocalists come together. Visually it was a little bit dirty, you can tell that they haven't had as much time to polish as they would have liked. Don't think they'll win tonight (could be wrong of course) but given that they still have more to add I think they'll be just fine for the rest of the season.

It is really weird to see CTJ not performing an entire show. Another weird thing is that for the second year in a row I'm not completely thrown by their arrangements. This show has high potential and should develop very nicely. I can't help but think to myself (see what I did there) if they aren't gunning for a UIL championship instead of BOA greatness this year. They will do just fine in both contests. Great run CTJ!

Oh boy! This contest! 

Top 3 is close. I think that Cedar Ridge is going to end up on top.

Very close! It's hard because when you look at both Reagan and CR they are 2 completely separate groups. Different sizes and styles but both fantastic it will be tough

I’m feeling,  


1. Cedar Ridge (Music, GE)

2. Ronald Reagan (Visual)

3.Claudia Taylor Johnson 

4. Cy-Fair

5. Stephen F. Austin

6. Seven Lakes

7. Pearland

8. Lake Travis

9. Friendswood

10. Foster

11. Cypress Woods

12. Oak Ridge

Reagan was really good tonight, a better run than prelims I think. They have some moments like the rotating woodwind and brass frontfield/backfield playing that's quite cool, and the technical demand of the show is impressive. The preshow is very cool, maybe my favorite one so far this season. It's a tough one for me between them and Cedar Ridge tonight, but I think I'll have to go with Cedar Ridge, with CTJ behind them both.
