BandFan95 Posted March 8, 2023 Posted March 8, 2023 Doesn't look like Westwood will be going back to this one. Quote
Dave609 Posted March 8, 2023 Posted March 8, 2023 this looks like a really good lineup! Even without some of the heavy hitters like Vandegrift, Cedar Park, Rouse, Leander, etc... BaritoneBallah 1 Quote
Arstneio Posted March 10, 2023 Posted March 10, 2023 Round Rock has a JV program? Interesting, I never knew that. I should have expected it since they're such a large school but I never really considered it Anyway, I hope we are going to Vista Ridge this year alyglad87 1 Quote
Tubalord11 Posted March 10, 2023 Posted March 10, 2023 After last year, my guess for first would be between Brandies or O’Conor, but I could see maybe, not likely but maybe, some group like liberty Hill or maybe one of the Belton schools or even Weiss sneaking that top spot Quote
Daniel98 Posted May 30, 2023 Posted May 30, 2023 I just got news that Del Rio will also be attending gregorydf01 1 Quote
FEDude Posted June 21, 2023 Posted June 21, 2023 I think Brandeis is more likely than O'Connor to win it. Brandeis cleans up really well, especially early season. O'Connor is really good at pacing themselves and is often the strongest performing band in Northside at the tail end of the season. I think New Braunfels, Weiss, and Churchill are likely to be up there in finals. If Del Rio does go, I think they'll get top 5 or 6. Taft might slip into finals depending on how they clean up early season. That would put all 3 NISD bands in finals. Quote

AlphaOmega Posted September 21, 2023 Posted September 21, 2023 My personal predictions based on gut feeling: 1st - Brandeis 2nd - McNeil 3rd - O'Connor 4th - Weiss 5th - John Paul Stevens 6th - Churchill 7th - Glenn 8th - New Braunfels 9th - Stony Point 10th - Belton ReveriesOp24 and BaritoneBallah 2 Quote

They were fantastic last season and are quickly rising to the levels of the other bands in Leander ISD. gregorydf01 and Aquaflamma85 2 Quote

I saw them and Brandeis at BOA today, and Brandeis was definitely stronger. I've also seen McNeil, and they're the strongest they've ever been. I have not seen O'Connor, so I can't say if they'll beat Glenn or not just yet. I will say, Glenn definitely is rising up. They had a great performance today. Enjoyed their show a lot. Quote

Top 3 make sense but 4th will probably be Glenn and 5th Churchill. New Braunfels is also a sleeper school. Quote

Bandmanio Posted September 27, 2023 Posted September 27, 2023 I believe that Lake Belton will surprise quite a few at this contest. Quote
J-Mike16 Posted September 27, 2023 Posted September 27, 2023 I agree. Lake Belton is one of my dark horses to make State. Quote

Not sure when they started having them at festivals, etc. Huge program at one time over 350. Quote
Clark_DM_2009 Posted October 3, 2023 Posted October 3, 2023 Predictions? All of these bands are clustered in similar tiers, should be a close competition without Westwood this season. Tier 1 - LD Brandeis, Glenn, McNeil, O'Connor, Winston Churchill Tier 2 - Del Rio, Lake Belton, Liberty Hill, New Braunfels, Weiss Bubble - Belton, Hutto, JP Stevens Quote
