    Just saw a Facebook post from the Whitesboro band. In case you don't know/remember, they are the ones who went to BOA Grand Nationals in 2016 as a Class A band and are a consistent UIL 3A finalist, finishing 2nd in 2019.

    How do you even compare bands like Leander, Hebron, and CTJ? They're all so amazing and entertaining in their own way.

    CTJ is just so good in every aspect! That solo battle is everything they needed to tie the middle of the show together.

    CTJ plays with SO MUCH control! The best musical performance of the day in my opinion. That seemed like a great first run for Team Texas!!!

    Great job, Madison!  I love that they used the same ballad as Keller 2016- probably my favorite ballad ever.
     
    MadisonBandMan1, you should be very proud of your performance and all that you have given these past years.  You have shown such a contagious passion for your hard work and it has been fun to watch you growing up and maturing.  You have a fan, here!

    PENALTIES IN MARCHING BAND ARE THE STUPIDEST THING EVER!!!!!
     
    Other than if a student does something, or the band affects the schedule of the contest, it is not fair to the kids. All of them pour blood, sweat, and tears into perfecting their programs and for something as small as 30 seconds over on a performance take that away is just NOT RIGHT.
    Basically kids are wasting their times perfecting programs that don’t even get to see the light of day because of A DIRECTOR’S MISTAKE! Or maybe not even. Incredibly unfortunate.
    (And please don’t take this as though the Roma kids “wasted their time”. They didn’t. They still probably all learned to be better musicians and people. Just trying to make my point.

    I have a suspicion that due to Henny doing the UIL show as well today, they withdrew from the Finals competition.  That show is 100% a finalist.
