So proud of our Katy band for making the finals and playing their two best shows of the year yesterday. They executed their show to practical perfection and entertained along the way. 

As an aside, I am admittedly new to this, but these results don't make any sense at all. Aren't the judges supposed to be checked for relative consistency? Some of the rankings within categories in a round and then also from Prelims to Finals are wildly different. Very odd to say the least. And with the scoring system in place, those...oddities...make a huge difference. Our results were within an expected and consistent range in both rounds, but several other bands' results just make zero sense.

The judges switch places between finals and prelims. Visual judges become musical and vice versa. This is why everyone hates UIL because nothing makes sense. Its like they picked schools and threw them in random order. The same thing happened in 2018, when cinco went from third to 8th and Jersey Village went from like 10th to 6th.

Is being "hecka loud" a good thing or a bad thing?

In this case, it’s a good thing. Their music was clean as well as loud. 

[UIL 6A Area I 2021]

JET put on a fantastic performance. Visually clean and pretty loud and decent music wise. Could either be fourth or third 

[UIL 6A Area I 2021]

It will be super tight between cy woods and 7L. They added a lot of new stuff to their show and are executing it at a high level. 

[UIL 6A Area I 2021]

Cy-fair was hecka loud. They also added some blue sleeves to match the water theme. Fourth or third place for sure 

[UIL 6A Area I 2021]

Tompkins and Bridgeland went back to back (how fun). In my opinion, Tompkins triumphs bridgeland music wise and isn’t too far behind visual wise. Both bands were super clean, however, tompkins might pull ahead.

Do you think the 2 bands from each district trend will continue? Meaning it will be JET v Tompkins and Cyfair v Bridgland for three and four?

7 of the 8 bands made 1's, so four bands will be advancing! It will be great to see who can advance this year!

 

Its a given 7L and Cy woods will take top two. The battle for three and four is going to be i n s a n e. JET, Cy-Fair, and Tompkins all have very exciting programs. It's going to be very, very close.

[UIL 6A Area I 2021]

I believe if four bands are allowed to qualify, Cy Woods and Cy Fair will be the the top contenders for the cy schools, and Seven Lakes and James E. Taylor will be the top contenders for the katy schools. Tompkins will certainly challenge JET for a spot, however, JET's program this year is spectacular. If the music catches up with the visual then they might have their state spot locked.

I think Vandergrift is gonna take it, considering Reagan isn't going to be there and they beat every other texas band at san antonio

Also apparently Scott Johnson is the percussion judge

I think the top five are (no order) Brazoswood, Clements, JET, Oak Ridge, and Westfield.

I feel like the top five will be Oak Ridge, Clements, JET, Brazoswood, and Bridgeland.
