  1. They do. Heard her this week with the drumline at Dripping Springs. Their drum show, btw, is insane.
  2. All of the above info is correct. Also, here is the overall placement: 1) Cedar Ridge- 93.83 2) Vandegrift- 93.17 3) Vista Ridge- 91.50 4) Pflugerville- 89.83 5) Round Rock- 88.17 6) Earl Warren- 86.17 7) Seguin- 85.83 8) Cedar Park- 84.67 9) McCallum- 78.83 10) Georgetown- 78.50 11) Anderson- 78.00 12) Lake Travis- 75.50 13) Eastview- 72.33 14) Akins- 71.00 15) Belton- 70.67 16) San Marcos- 69.00 17) Rouse- 68.67 18) Hutto- 67.17 19) Stony Point- 67.17 20) Del Valle- 65.17
  3. Here is a link to the full schedule, if you are interested: http://www.dsbands.org/hs/wp-content/uploads/2014/09/2014-DSDL-Contest-Schedule-Final.pdf
  4. BUMP: Several changes have come in- Del Valle and Cedar Park are now competing in 6A, and San Marcos has joined as a 5A.
  5. Interesting. Impressed to see Richland taking all those captions, but surprised to see that they did it and yet still lost. However, after watching their show, they don't seem quite as strong as last year. Of course, it's still very early. Congrats to John Horn- not that anybody's surprised.
  6. The schedule came out earlier this week. Here's what we're looking at- Akins (6A)- 1:00 Anderson (6A)- 1:15 Seguin (5A)- 1:30 Del Valle (5A)- 1:45 Hutto (5A)- 2:00 Warren (6A)- 2:15 Cedar Park (5A)- 2:30 McCallum (5A)- 2:45 Georgetown (5A)- 3:00 Vista Ridge (5A)- 3:15 Eastview (5A)- 3:30 Dripping Springs (EXHIBITION)- 3:45 Stony Point (6A)- 4:15 Round Rock (6A)- 4:30 Rouse (6A)- 4:45 Lake Travis (6A)- 5:00 Pflugerville (6A)- 5:15 Belton (6A)- 5:30 Cedar Ridge (6A)- 5:45 Vandegrift (6A)- 6:00 Austin Reagan (EXHIBITION)- 6:15 Awards/Retreat- 6:30 So now that it's official, anyone have any predictions?
  7. It certainly should be fun! To start with, some links to the usual Leander ISD powerhouse bands: Vandegrift's opener (full band): Leander's opener (snare cam): Leander's opener (full band): Vista Ridge's opener (full band): Cedar Park's opener (full band, but on-field angle, so mostly pit): I will say that I'm impressed so far with Leander, although I'm not sure whether they're attending DS or not (it appears they didn't go last year?). I saw Vista Ridge in person Friday, and while their book was pretty dirty, they're playing strong and definitely have potential. Vandegrift and Cedar Park both look really strong again, as expected. EDIT: Sorry for the links instead of easily accessible videos, but I wanted to avoid a ridiculous amount of posts.
  8. To put it in perspective, here are last year's results: 5A: 1) Cedar Ridge- 93.33 (pit, cymbals, tenors) 2) Pflugerville- 91.83 (snares) 3) Lake Travis- 88.17 (basses) 4) Round Rock- 86.17 5) Westlake- 82.5 6) Hendrickson-78.0 7) Belton- 72.5 8) College Park- 71.67 9) Stony Point- 68.33 4A (I'm missing the scores- if anyone has them, feel free to comment): 1) Vandegrift (pit, snares, basses)* 2) McCallum (tenors) 3) Cedar Park (cymbals) 4) Vista Ridge 5) Georgetown 6) Eastview 7) Hutto 8) Rouse *=grand champion
  9. Well, I figured that since the Lone Star Classic topic went pretty well last year, it would be worth it to start a thread about Dripping Springs (which takes place on 9/20/14). First off, here's a link to the DSDC website: http://dsbands.org/dlcontest/index.html The judging panel looks pretty great- Alan Miller, Bill Bachman, and Manny Maldonado. Should be an interesting combination. So, let's discuss! Who's attending this year? Who's going to win? Who might sneak up and surprise some people? In a little while, I'll post some links to groups who have attended in the past or may be attending this year, as well as last year's results. It should give us something to base off of and liven up the discussion a bit! Also, if your group is planning on attending, I would love your honest opinion. *side note: Seguin will be attending this year for the first time ever! We're excited to get a chance to compete this early in the season
  10. I will preface this by saying that the only knowledge I have of the Allen Band is that they're freaking HUGE. That being said, it is my opinion that as long as the students are being taught well, which it seems they are, then the more the merrier.
  11. Gotta go with Vista Ridge and the Music of Scheherazade. The music and the energy they put into it was just so impressive. I can speak from experience when I say that going on after them is very intimidating. I've had this show on repeat since the season ended!
  12. Props to them from me as well, I saw them in the lot and they're a very solid group. Impressive playing, and a very cool battery book! Looking for good things from them in the future!
