2019 - Six bands in SA finals went to GN. Five of them placed better in Indy than in SA, one worse. Gotta disagree.

Your concessions prices are better

I wasn't trying to pounce on anything. I apologize if it came across that way.

To be fair, you saw that same duplication before they did. The really good bands in Texas have really good years under both systems.

Bitter, party of one! There isn't a single band in Finals that isn't excellent. You will see many of the same bands in Finals on Tuesday and the UIL system is very different from BOA. These bands excel under both systems because they are among the best high school bands in the country.

Finals metro representation: DFW - 5 Austin - 5 SA - 2 Houston - 2

No. It's what you do on the field.

Not bad with so many kids on the bench, including a soloist

After Finals

And there it is.

Hearing that Finals will be bookended by two LISD (South) bands. 😎

Caption sweeps = Zzzzzzzz.....

Best salutes: Pearland, Friendswood, Highland Park

Buddha, TX. Lulz.

I would add the two Ridges and say those are the locks.

They know it's the truth. They won't admit it, but they know it.

Arrogance or not, it's the truth

Question of the day: How many bands here would qualify for Finals at the Indianapolis "Super" Regional?

The issue with Panel 2 is there are more very top bands and some get pushed out of the Top 5 and are subject to possible score imbalance between the two panels.

It happens every year, and understandably so. The show is so loaded. People get very excited about the band they JUST saw and swear they will be in Finals. Recency bias is a thing. There just aren't enough slots to go around.

Somebody makes a new account just to take a swipe at Vista. Childish.

So the guy with the trollish post re: Vista Ridge is hyped to see Vandegrift. 🤔

🙄

Let'e go get it Vista Ridge!
