I'm so freaking excited for Vandergrift's show!! It feels like something more "alive" and modern almost, not that I hated their past show concepts, but it seems like a step, possibly with the new director change, in a new direction and I'm super excited to see this show!!

I decided to peep the scores and Avon….Jesus Also congrats to TW’s on the bronze medal 🥉 🥳🥳🥳 and also to Marcus, JB and Westlake in SO! I don’t think I’ll have time tomorrow to rewatch the broadcast unfortunately, but congrats to all the guards on an incredible season!!!

I feel like this show theme has became popular out of no where, there were like 3 or so DFW bands that did it last season lol, but this seems like a different take, super excited!

Went back to watch Carmel-Avon, TW’s were much cleaner as everyone had been saying, 1st time seeing Tarpon and there’s just so much going on, some times a bit to much, Carmel was much better, LOVE Arcadia, and Avon was just Avon

TW’s still in 3rd and up in score by a couple points!! I might have slept through my alarms for SW, but they seem to be holding their ground, hoping for a no-drop run tomorrow night! And Azle/Grand Oaks still looking strong as well!

Thx for this, just got off work lol! Super happy for everyone who made semis, and for those that didn’t, thanks for an incredible season!! Azle was 🔥 today, should hopefully take a meal. SO is SUPER close at the top, it’s honestly anyone’s game. As far as TW’s, I don’t seem the dropping and think their score and hopefully placements will improve. I haven’t checked the schedule but hopefully can watch a good amount tomorrow!

Also Grand Oaks with an 89 and Wylie with an 86 in SA, so Azle in top for team Tx rn, but some strong showings over there!

I didn't see any of this lol, but I'm not the expert here, but from a newish person it looked solid, rough start for sure though

The Woodlands.... OH. MY. GOD!!!! I might be crazy and get cancelled for saying this lol, but I feel like they are just as good as Avon, and I think have a chance of winning. Other than a couple uncharacteristic drops at the start, it was flawless. I never seen a show with so many tosses, it's actually insane, idk I really think they have a chance, but I feel like Avon's GE is to good to be beaten, but we'll see! But yeah, TW'S were amazing, was jaw-dropped the whole time

Those girls at Avon can’t be real. I just don’t understand how they can perform this show so well, just flawless, magical and perfect. Wouldn’t be surprised if they had like a 95+ today, nobody’s touching them, my god

And Azle with a 90.4, whom I forget to write about, but they were AMAZING!! So clean today

First set of SW scores out….Fishers with an almost 2 point gap over Carmel, What A Season!! Probably won’t medal but they will place very well this weekend, so happy for this group!

Stoneman Douglas had me in tears, omg what I powerful show! They really do an incredible job bringing out the story, love the silence section, not to mention they are super good! One of my new favorites! FISHERS!!!!! They just had the cleanest run of their season, Im just speechless rn over how good that was, crowd was eating that show up!!

Carmel was amazing, unfortunate start but they were pretty much flawless. I feel like I was actually to enjoy the theme more for some reason, they were much more theatrical you might say, but they were just great as always

So ummmmm Arcadia was INSANE!!! I. MEAN. WOW!!! The show design is so smart and present, tons of GE and they are soooo talented, will be fun to see how Carmel responds but my goodness that was so good!!

Really enjoyed Flomo! A couple drops throughout but they’ve cleaned up SO much, could definitely see them slipping into finals with a cleaner run tomorrow

Hello everyone! Sounds like the Tx guards have been doing pretty well so far. Unfortunately for me, there was so conflicts with my schedule for work, and will have to miss some stuff tomorrow and Saturday. I don’t get in till 6 pm both days, so I will have to watch world class finals on the replay Sunday, and will probably avoid this forum so stuff doesn’t get spoiled lol, but I should be good to watch the rest of the Tx groups today and will be watching WC when it starts back up till Azle. Good luck to the remaining guards, gonna be a fun weekend!

I'm really just at a loss for words right now. Knowing many people who marched and worked with this organization, my heart is broken for all future, past and what would have been present members of this organization. It's crazy knowing that we won't get to see this group take the field again. I hope everyone affected by this is doing okay, but dang this sucks

Thanks for the heads up! I knew I was going to forget one lol Also missed Dawson but I went through it again and everyone should be there now

Hey everyone! Hope everybody had a great Easter weekend! As we are approaching the championships for WGI, I went ahead and made a schedule for the Texas bands for SA and SO in Texas time! The schedules are massive and so for anyone who doesn't want to have to deal with switching between schedules/time-zones, here's all the times for the Texas guards in SO in SA. The world class schedule is much easier to follow. As for me, I will definitely be watching finals for all three classes and will cover as many groups as I can after my Thursday/Friday classes are finished. I'll be able to catch all the SA guards on Thursday except Prosper and all but the first four groups of SO. Hopefully I'll be back in time for Tarpon, if not I'll miss the first block of SW but will be back for the other 2! Have no idea what Friday will look like, but we'll know when the time comes. Only a week and a half until the end of the season, which is crazy as it feels like it started last week, but I'm super pumped to see all the guards compete one last time!!

Okay that’s great to hear, should pretty early make state and do so for a while unless they move back up or new areas alignments, super excited to see this program hopefully finally make state

Thanks for this! I’m only recently been getting into 4A but it’s only getting better and will be fully invested next season

I think top 3 in order will be Panther Creek, China Springs and Southwest, outside of that is fair game

This will be a very tough one to predict! I’d say at the moment Hendrickson is still the band to beat. Yes, last season wasn’t their best but it’s also Hendrickson. Piper could possibly win this comp, but I think they need a few more seasons to be that type of a powerhouse program. Some other programs like McCallum and Hays and a weird season last year. Here’s what I’m thinking right now assuming all 1’s 1st: Hendrickson 2nd: Pieper 3rd: McCallum 4th: Lake Belton 5th: New Braunels 6th-10th: Weiss/Hays/P-Ville/SV/Georgetown I am personally expecting Hays and McCallum to do much better, hopefully. I do thing NB is going to have success in 5A and could see them anywhere as high as 3rd. My 6-10 could be in any order, but I’d imagine finals will be mostly these programs. Another area that’s gonna be SUPER competitive

Oooo that would be fun to see!!
