Added Dripping Springs!

Bold. Very bold. I like it.

Never have I EVER heard the CTJ band put other bands down. Ever.

Yeah. I know...

Ok I kind of love that a band will be playing Watermelon Sugar this year. ?

What about when Whitesboro went in 2016? I don’t remember seeing them before GN at other BOA contests.

I wasn’t including them in my likely finalist list. They are a 4A school and I was referring to the 6A schools attending.

Looks like you were on to something with this back in December as it would appear that Flower Mound has indeed decided to forgo BOA San Antonio in order to compete in UIL and at GN this November.

Besides the seven (possibly eight) 6A Texas bands attending, the following bands are also more than highly capable of making finals: Avon HS, IN Blue Springs HS, MO (rumored to be coming) Broken Arrow HS, OK Carmel HS, IN Dobyns-Bennett HS, TN Homestead HS, IN Mason HS, OH Tarpon Springs HS, FL (There are also rumors of LD Bell attending). Craziest GN year to date, hands down.

Coppell announced their fall production recently. And evidently the Mandarins/Vista Ridge spinning table will be making a comeback as well. ? The show is called "Carousel" and features the following music:Carnival of Souls by Verne LangdonMerry-Go-Round by Phillip SparkeHumoresque by Antonin DvorakDance of the Comedians by Bedrich Smetana

Vista Ridge is continuing on with their plans to do Vorca Rhe. Leander is continuing with their plans to do Long Strange Trip unless Selaiden misspoke at March-a-thon a few weeks ago. ?

I’m gonna predict a medal for Vista Ridge. ?

Interesting!!!

This is the list for San Antonio. I haven’t heard if Hay’s is going to Indy. They sure have sharp new uniforms tho!

I’m not 100% sure about that list. But I definitely know we have a huge group headed to Indy this November!

Would love to see them do well here for sure. And to attend GN in the near future!

I’m pretty sure we will see Hebron, Flower Mound and LD Bell confirmed soon, as well as others. Excited to see Bentonville (AR) attending as well since I live up here now!
