    Saw them at Area D competition and they looked smaller than what I've seen in years past. One of the parents said they had 75 to 80 seniors last year and about 40 incoming freshman. They were still very, very good just not as dominant as they were 5 years ago.

    There are pros and cons with the boom mics. It certainly can enhance your sound. Likewise, it can amplify any mistakes that may occur. Other perennial GN finalists like Broken Arrow, Tarpon Springs, Avon, Willam H Mason, and Blue Springs, MO use them.

    Let's not forget Pearland. They certainly would have been in the conversation for finals as well

    Anyone know why Reagan didn't have tenors in their battery?
  5. Txpharmguy
    Reagan, Round Rock, and CTJ should be finalists. Of course, never say never. I'd imagine all 5 being top 25 in prelims. Area B is also very deep too.
  6. Txpharmguy
    Area D is already stacked as it is. I have no doubt that some of the bands outside the top 5 would be finalists in other areas. Many years ago LISD was part of the same region for TMEA.

    After seeing the tonight following Vandy at the football game, I'd say they're back in the mix. Much improved over BOA Austin

    Round Rock is going to Orlando Spring of 2023 and London summer of 2024. Don't think they're going to GN. If I recall, It cost close to 300K for a band to go

    Round Rock is going to London June 2024 so don't think they're going to Indy in 2023

    Not to mention 10 thru 13 was separated by 0.2 points.
  11. Txpharmguy
    2 of those are Round Rock in 2018. Got 13th overall. Around 10ish in most categories, but one marching judge gave them 34th. Nonetheless, it's going to be a great competition and although nearly all the finalists will be BOA SA Finalists, the order may be different at SMBC

    If there was a true Grand Nats this where all the big dogs appeared (Carmel, Avon, Broken Arrow, Tarpon, William Mason, Blue Springs, and top 12 from San Antonio), there's a possibility that FloMo wouldn't have made finals. Just shows how deep Texas is.
  13. Txpharmguy
    With the next 3 years of having Grand Nats the 2nd weekend in November, maybe more Texas bands will attend even on a 6A state year. In 2016, Reagan and Leander did BOA San Antonio Fri/Sat, UIL State Tue/Wed and GNs Thu/Fri/Sat all in one week.
  14. Txpharmguy
    Up to 8 bands from the 1000-1245 block could make finals (Carmel, Leander, CTJ, Hebron, Round Rock, Union, William Mason, Homestead)

    Several reasons: missed out on finals in Austin regional (2019) and not making finals in San Antonio (2017 and 2018). They had been a perennial finalist in the past
  17. Txpharmguy
    Locks would be CTJ, Reagan, Vandy, Leander, Vista Ridge, FloMo, Hebron, and The Woodlands. Probably 20 bands realistically competing for final 6. Westlake, Lake Travis, Bowie, Cedar Ridge, Keller, Cedar Park, Rouse, LD Bell, Prosper, Marcus, Coppell, Timber Creek, Waxahachie, James Martin, North Shore, Pearland, Round Rock, Westwood, Wakeland

    86.9 will be lucky to get 25th place in San Antonio, let alone 5th at a Super Regional.

    I've loved him since the day he was born. #prouddad
  20. Txpharmguy
    FloMo, VR, Vandy top 3
  21. Txpharmguy
    RR 13th Bowie 17th Westlake 21st Hendrickson 25th
  22. Txpharmguy
    Did a little digging into scores previous 3 years. Look how much everyone has improved. 2016 35th Place 75.25 2017 35th Place 81.45 2018 35th Place 83.75
  23. Txpharmguy
    Heck a 93.5 2 years ago would win. Today would have been good enough for 8th place.
  24. Txpharmguy
    There are so many great bands here and just not enough slots. Two years ago an 85 got you into the finals and would have been 11th place. Now an 85 gets you top 30. That's crazy.
  25. Txpharmguy
    84.55 for CyFalls to make finals last year and 90.4 for Keller this year
