daaarn! KO in bottom half. i wonder if the phasing issues kinda torpedoed Klein Oak's placement. they were unfortunately pretty significant. that music is haaaard w/ all the timing stuff.

This is the 2nd time in 20 years SFA has missed finals at a houston area regional. Couldn't have been too far out.

Surprisingly enough, I'll be here tonight for the last half of finals. I'm in town visiting my stupid brothers in Sugarland. I'm at a Starbucks trying to charge my phone, but I should be heading up soon. I'm excited to see a couple friends I haven't seen in a long, long time, one of whom teaches at a delightful middle school band program south of Houston! Not sure where they're sitting.

Come say hi! All 4 of you who know me! :lol: I'm wearing a white dress shirt with a floral pattern -- kind of like leaves -- white shorts, and a dark blue watch. (I'm trying here.) Ask for George! Or Rubisco! Whatever! :lol:

I'm also excited because this is my first live band event in quite a while. I've missed it! :)

I can not wait til my vacation in just 2 weeks! I may be able to go to not just 1, but 2 contests! The last one I went to was back in 2020 for 4A Area C.

I kindof have no idea what TWHS’ show is supposed to be about, but I don’t really care because the music is so dang enjoyable and the guard is spectacular. Also, it’s kinda iconic that they’ve been using those tiered stages for like 6 years straight.

So happy to see the Woodlands and Pearland doing so well after big staff shakeups. And Is it just me, or is everyone performing much better tonight at finals? Im so impressed with the level of polish at this early point of the season these bands are bringing.

Go Cy-Fair!!! Amazing start for these kids! Congratulations to everyone!

Austin missed out on finals by .5 to Dawson, looked like they had technical issues and missing tarps for the props.
And no surprised to see groups such as Woodlands and Pearland be up there in finals so great work from them and Cy-Fair was really amazing

SFA's new head director was at Tarpon Springs last year and Coppell before that. I believe the associate director did some work at DFW programs including Coppell and Hebron. Some very good pedigree there but I've not seen anything from them yet, or from many Houston area programs for that matter.

I believe he started working at sfa at first which is pretty cool
