I feel like you shouldn't count out Rockwall Heath or Wylie East. I've seen their shows both really good

I've seen wylie east but i haven't seen rockwall heath so judging from last year i just didn't really consider them a contender but now I'm excited to see what they're doing this year! If you find a recording feel free to send it to me!

[SaxPapi101]

Sucks that I can't find a single recording on them 

[SaxPapi101]

Oh well we will just have to wait till October

No but i can assure they do sound pretty great this year

[Dave609]

This year is going to be epic in who takes the final state spots from this group! 

[SaxPapi101]

Is it 12 going into area finals or ten?

There are 32-33 bands participating to advance to area, so unless 3-4 get twos at region which is looking more unlikely with Garland and Forney schools recent success, there will be 12 area finalist spots and 6 state qualifiers spots.

Oh dang never mind I forgot about how more participants makes more finalist and state spots

I think Prosper will make it this year. Last year imo was just dumb and they definitely should have made it, but it wasn’t their best run. However with it being a nats year, they will be stepping it up a gear. I’d have them in 4th and move everyone else down 

I could see prosper moving up and WE moving down but not much of a change outside of that.

Rockwall and John Horn had great showings at Mesquite Marching Festival. Rockwall's visual and music was amazing, while their percussion and guard were not so much. Rockwall Heath had a disappointing showing, especially their music scores they are normally high in those, they would normally get 3rd place in music, but they got 6th.  Their Guard and Percussion scores carried them to four. Lakeview music scores were great giving them 4th place in those. North Forney did well musically but in every other aspect they fell short. 

6a Area C scores at mesquite:

1. Hebron

2. Rockwall

3. John Horn

4. Rockwall Heath

5. North Forney

6. Tyler Legacy

7. Lakeview Centennial

8. Garland

10. Mesquite

11. Naaman Forest

I believe this showing can possibly change your rankings about the Area C predictions for later in October.

They do definitively help. With this and how WMI and HEB went, id say, and this me assuming they are taking 5 again, the 5 going to state will be the 3 LISD schools, Prosper and Wylie East, with Wylie possibly slipping in. Don’t think Sachse is a great chance anymore, and John Horn over Heath isn’t a great sign either. 

[SaxPapi101]

Judging also seemed off, maybe this is a sign to watch out for new bands.

Here's the 6a recap for the MMF. 

[SaxPapi101]

I want to see how McKinney, BOA, and Royse City will go. As a lot of these Area C Band is performing in these competitions.

I dont see how the current showing is gonna lead to 3 groups getting 2s frankly, only risk of a 2 I can see is maybe Allen getting field penalty at region, but they are smaller than normal so thats most likely not going to happen along with new UIL rule which allows electronics on field a bit earlier, were gonna most likely see 12 finals and 6 state spots.

Okay thank you! I’d say my 6 would be 3 LISD schools, prosper, Wylie East and either Wylie or Rockwall/Rockhill(these guys did just win the Plano East comp)

3rd- Flower Mound

4th- Wylie East

5th- Prosper

6th- Plano East

7th- Rockhill

8th- McKinney Boyd

It’s possible over Wylie or Rockwall, but not Wylie East. I’d say personally top 5 are “locked” with everyone fighting for the 6th spot, but this weekend will be a huge determination with a lot of the top bands here fighting for 4th-6th competing at the McKinney comp

Oh good luck there! Some good bands there! If I'm correct, Melissa HS, which is the school I marched with when I was in High School, will be there!
