  1. My takeaways 1. Cedar Ridge is in a perfect position early this season! .55 behind Vandegrift bodes very well for them! 2. Round Rock bounced back from an awkward 2021 season! While the new uniforms are... different to say the least, I am glad to see them pushing ahead early! 3. I wasn't able to see Leander in prelims or finals, but their placement does concern me a little. I'm positive they will improve over the season, but I do wonder what put them in 12th
  2. 4A 3rd- ROUND ROCK!!!! 2nd- Cedar Ridge 1st- Vandegrift
  3. Manor New Tech wins 1A Music Ann Richards wins 1A Visual Manor New Tech wins 1A GE
  4. Vandegrift sweeps 4A Cedar Park sweeps 3A Burnet sweeps 2A
  5. Definitely agree! CR was locked in the entire time and was my personal favorite of the day! Vandegrift was terrific, but there seemed to be some visual miscues. Nonetheless, both shows will develop phenomenally over the season!
  6. As a former member of the band, our directors wait until the week of the contest to release anything. More often than not, it’s not released outside of the competing bands
  7. Music, visual, percussion, and color guard are typically handed out. I’m pretty sure there are 10 finalists for this contest
  8. Based on what I've seen so far this year, I think there are a few brackets Austin can be broken into 1:Vandegrift They have been phenomenal so far this season and are incredibly clean 2-4: Vista Ridge, Cedar Park, Cedar Ridge Any placement of these three is justifiable. Cedar Park sounded exceptional, Cedar Ridge was incredibly enjoyable, and Vista Ridge feels like the Vista that gave us Turning The Tables. These three will be phenomenal over the season! 5-8: Westlake, Rouse, Leander, Round Rock The only footage of Leander I saw was a bad football stream early, so it's hard to fairly judge them. Westlake is sounded super mature and like a big contender in this contest! Although I haven't seen anything from Rouse, I think last season was a stepping stone for long-term consistency for them! I think Round Rock will bounce back this year. Some of their visual work is still strange to me, but they sound really good so far! Finding four more finalists in this group is DIFFICULT. Hendrickson, James Bowie, Westwood, Dripping Springs, Weiss, Brandeis, and Lake Travis are among the group that I just don't know how to place yet, but this contest will be fantastic!
  9. They sound really good early on this season! Defintely a finals hopeful in my book!
  10. I think 6A is more up in the air this year. I would love to see a new winner in Vandegrift or hopefully see Vista Ridge return to the top! I'm also rooting for Coppell to do well
  11. Hearing from my friends at Plano East, it sounds like they are already WAY ahead of the curve from last year and their design this year is much stronger than last. Could be a low finalist or just on the edge
  12. These are the most significant moments in Plano East History 1981- School Opened 1998- First State Appearance 2000- Second State Appearance 2002- Third State Appearance *Years of barely missing state* 2010- "Pursuit" - 14th BOA San Antonio (First ever BOA Appearance and First Finals Appearance) - Weather kept us from going to Area Finals 2011- "Currents" - 15th BOA San Antonio 2012- "The Bells" (aka The Show Of Legend) -12th BOA San Antonio (Last SA Finals Appearance) -19th at UIL SMBC 2016- "Steampunk Heart" - 26th at UIL SMBC 2019- "1000 Cranes" (my Sophomore year) - 1st Carrolton TOC - Mr. V retires (after over 40 years of instruction in Plano, Duncanvllle, Austin, and San Angelo) This year was our first "normal" year without Mr. V, who had served as a head director from 2006-2019 and had been a director at PESH since 1996. Our heyday was really from 2009-2014, but I think Mr. B can bring us back to glory!
  13. Still extremely happy to see Team Texas keep showing the strength of the state!
  14. That has to be a record breaking score
  15. Do you think there’s still hope for a Texas medal, or are we done?
  16. CONGRATULATIONS HEBRON!!!!!
  17. Does anyone have footage of Marcus' show? I've only been able to see from the end zone this year
  18. Better yet, did anyone record all of finals? If so, please DM!
  19. Does anyone know what could've caused Vista's drop from 8th to 12th? They got a rough draw for finals performance, but a 4 spot drop seems heavy
  20. There’s no words to describe what Hebron just did. This should 100% be tonight’s champion
  21. Only one Area B school made it to finals! I was really rooting for Lone Star, they looked and sounded AMAZING at BOA Dallas
  22. Flo Mo, Hebron, and Marcus are for all practical purposes state locks. Other spots are a tossup between Wylie, McKinney, John Horn, Plano East, Prosper, and Sachse. Any combination could happen
  23. Yes please! I haven’t been able to see Hebron yet this year and really want to feel the musicality of them
  24. I remember seeing Hebron after our performance from the end zone. I'd honestly be SHOCKED if they lost. Musically phenomenal and visually (at least from what I could see) clean. Then again, I haven't seen any other attending bands at this point
