The rain in my opinion did play a difference in Emerson and Liberty's placements.....

Reedy just did an amazing job...... they're ready to take that last spot for state.... wow......

The time draws were done even before region...

I was off by one... heritage made it instead of liberty....

My final predictions... I'm stuck with... 1. Wakeland 2. Lone Star 3. LT 4. Argyle 5. Reedy 6. Walnut Grove 7.Independence 8. Melissa 9. Liberty 10. MN 11. Emerson 12. Heritage 13. Centennial 14. Memorial 15. Anna 16. Ryan 17. Lovejoy 18. Denton 19. Sherman 20. Frisco... my old high school... 21. Denison

As of right now I have 1. Wakeland/ Lone Star 2. Lone Star/ Wakeland yes it that close... both schools had minor minor things... it's crazy how they came out swinging... 3. LT/ Reedy/ Argyle this is freaking close like no other area prelims I've watched...... . LT/ Reedy/ Argyle this is freaking close like no other area prelims I've watched...... .Independence .

LT JUST CAME OUT AND WE ARE NOT MISSING STATE THIS YEAR!!!!! GREAT PERFORMANCE....

As of right now I have 1. Wakeland 2. Reedy 3. Melissa 4. Liberty 5. MN 6. Emerson 7. Centennial 8. Anna 9. Ryan 10. Lovejoy 11. Frisco... my old high school...

Melissa sounded great....

Yeah ok....

I work with a parent of a member of the band they don't see themselves that high... they see themselves in finals but not making state... that's directly from them... lol...

Now don't go overboard.... they're not close to being top 5.... that's just straight up truth.... facts with scores.... their marching technique isn't up to par with wakeland and Lone Star or LT..... calm down... lol..

I think everyone is sleeping on Emerson..... I have felt that way since the Frisco showcase...... their show is great.... they just need to have a clean run early in the morning..... and believe they'll make finals..... their guard is definitely in the top 3...

I'll be there the whole time... my nephew is part of Lone Star.....

I was at the Lone Star and LT football game and wow..... Lone Star sounds amazing a little glitch with their microphones on flute and clarinet.... other than that they're ready to leave everything on the field this Saturday.... LT was also amazing... their colorguard is freaking amazing and on point... they're definitely the colorguard to beat in my opinion...... Good luck to y'all this Saturday and all the other bands.....

I can see them getting into finals.... I've watched all the frisco schools shows throughout the year and they do have what it takes..... with that said the early call time for them is a hard place to be in... if they have a good clean run they have a great chance of making it...

Their guard is good... I used to judge winterguard... they just need more consistency on their body forms, tossing and catching consistently and the placement of their hands being the same throughout... but a good solid guard.. watching their feet making sure they're pointing their toes while doing their show..

I agree with them having an early time... but I still think they have a good chance of making finals..... considering all the Frisco schools are great I still think their GE/ Visual are great.... their movement is good they cleaned up quite a bit of it.... I do go to the football games to watch the bands and have seen their improvement... as much as we all would like to think that performance times to don't make a difference they do.... being in band we all knew that they do..... If they manage to put in a great clean run they'll be in finals......

You ain't wrong Tubalord11 usually pretty close when it comes to results....

My final predictions for Saturday. 1. Wakeland / Lone Star 2. Lone Star/ Wakeland 3. Lebanon Trail 4. Reedy/Argyle 5. Argyle/ Reedy 6. Walnut Grove ' 7. Mckinney North 8. Independence 9. Liberty 10. Heritage /Emerson 11. Emerson/ Heritage.....

I was wondering if anyone knows who the judges will be for Area?

I'm updating my prediction.... 1. Wakeland/ Lone Star 2. Lone Star/ Wakeland 3. Lebanon Trail 4. Lebanon Trail/ Reedy /Argyle 5. Reedy/ Mckinney North/ Argyle 6. Walnut Grove 7. Centennial 8. 9. Independence 10. Emerson I'm 95% sure about the top 3.. the others are a toss up....
