So, has anyone kept count of how many "Strong Finalists" so far"? Going to be interesting to see who get's a spot, so many good bands!

What's your thought's on umbrella's in the stands for shade (only between performances) and umbrella etiquette in general at Marching contest? (#bringyourownshade)

I am hoping to see this one on the Predictions Page but not yet added. Getting close and is going to be lot's of good bands this year (25 to 26)! If you want to see it on the Predictions Page please put in a good word!

Your too fast Samuel, caught me before I could edit....

Need 11 spots in FInals: 3 RRISD, 5 LISD, CTJ, Bowie and Hendrickson. Too many good bands and not enough spots for all

I agree but I can't be more specific than below as they are all too close: 1st through 4th) CTJ / Vista / Vandi / Leander (may be in any order) 5th) Cedar Park 6th through 10th) RR / Rouse / Hendrickson / Bowie / Cedar Ridge (may be in any order)

From the Live Blog: AAAA - Music - McNeil AAAA - Visual - Winston Churchill AAAA - GE - John B Alexander 1st - John B Alexander 2nd - Winston Churchill 3rd - McNeil AAA - Music - Roma AAA - Visual - Roma AAA - GE - Roma 1st - Roma 2nd - Birdville 3rd - Mission AA - Music - Rio Grande City AA - Visual - Pioneer AA - GE - Pioneer 1st - Pioneer 2nd - Sharyland 3rd - Hidalgo A - Music - Santa Rosa A - Visual - Santa Rosa A - GE - Santa Rosa 1st - Santa Rosa Finalists (random order): Del Rio Winston Churchill Birdville John B Alexander Sharyland Roma Mission McNeil Pioneer United

Storm rolling through with big winds and rain just as McNeil Performs They did great with all of it going down. Must have been gusts of 40MPH.... Small cell so may be over within 10 min. Just bad timing for McNeil

United is my favorite of the day so far. Love the show, emotion and performance!

Sound and Video skipping for me on McAllen but not the other two locations. I am using the App on ROKU.

I would guess a RRISD band, it's a shared stadium as a home field for several of the RRISD schools so when they go to practice at the "Home" field they can do so at K.R. Stadium. (Like Leander at Bible and VR at Gupton).

Agreed, so many of them are adding elements and working to check all the boxes. Sure makes it fun!

For me both music and GE were not on par with what we have seen from Camel in years past, but it's still early. At this point it looks like they are leaving the door open for some other bands to step in this year (some Texas Bands!!!).

Yes, was a fun show! Good show title too for the first contest of the season "Tis the Season" !!!

Band Nerds are and have always been the best kind of nerds!

Congrats for Leonardo's Dream! One of my all time favorite shows!

Let's get UT Austin!

Look for McNeil to do well here. Saw them Friday night and they are looking and sounding good. Also the Guard was looking on point and in mid season form!

Unfortunately I will not be going but is it ok if I join the page to follow along

At away games and chaperoning I try to "sneak" around to the home side and watch the shows, don't always get over in time but most of the time I do! As long as I am back in the visitor stands before the band get's back I can still get my job's done and see the show from the front side!
