ok, im really sorry hawkeye but being that i am from bowie and darn proud of it i feel the need to correct the one known as txbassbadass. they wrote:
"Way to be an ****... But how would it be possible for a band to go to State in S.A. and then Grand Nats. in Illinois the next day. I'm not quite sure the Bowie directors know what's going on yet due to BOA not releasing a schedule yet. If they get a prelims spot on the 8th, I find it quite impossible, due to BOA rules of having equipment in Ind. early, for Bowie to visit both competitions. Please let me know if a schedule acctually has been released, and I just havn't found it. "
and
"I could honestly care less if Leander goes to state or not, but they had an amazing show, which I thought was incredible due to their much smaller size in comparison to every other band in finals that night. All I can say is that if Bowie drops out, I wouldn't be suprised, and I'd be glad for Leander to have such an opportunity. I believe that without Leander's bad luck in both draws, Leander would be going in place of Akins (afterall, they only went home by one point), and I think they should have another chance.
I would just like to know whether or not, for sure, if Bowie is dropping out. "
