Freeman

 

Loved the flute soloist. Great music and visual. Those props are also fire. Loved the guard stuff. That low brass trio was 🔥🔥🔥 especially the trombone part (obv bias) 

 

Too bad they don't go to our area. 

Freeman made it to state in just its second year. I feel like once Freeman moves up to 6A either in the 2026 or 2028 realignment. it’s definitely going to shake up the area with a potential new finalist!

Yes. I get to enjoy a perfectly un marchable weather of clear blue skies in the mid 80s. 

Happened to me last year at Area C. Prime example of you never know what Texas weather is going to be.

That delay was a pretty good idea huh?

After being present for the absolute DISASTER that occurred last year at Area I - yes it was not only a good idea, it was a great idea and the best choice for all programs and students involved. 

Other Areas opted to NOT use their back up date this weekend and had to either, cancel finals, have groups get performances delayed, groups get rained on in performance, while others had clear skies, etc. If the option is present for EVERY student to have a more positive Area performance experience, which is the final performance of the show for most programs, it is absolutely the best choice to use the back up date. 

Also because I was both upset and curious called both the Katy ISD and Cy Fair ISD central offices after the contest last year - all the groups last year that had THOUSANDS of dollars of equipment, mallets, instruments, electronics, etc. get dumped on in the rain, do you know what they were provided by UIL and/or the district to assist with damaged or destroyed equipment? Nothing. Zero extra repair money. Zero replacements for lost equipment. Nothing. 

Lets not scoff at seeing some clear skies yesterday and using the reschedule date. Just my 2 cents.

--------------------

As for the Area Performances tomorrow - I am REALLY looking forward to clear skies, beautiful weather, and amazing performances from all the groups throughout the day and evening. I do think it'll be a 3/2 split between CyFair and Katy schools for the state spots with it being the CyFair schools in the majority in the end with Bridgeland, Cy Woods, and Cy Fair. Then again, you never know with Area I and all the things that happen in performance.  

Only a couple updates to my Prediction Ranges: 

Finalists:
1/2) Bridgeland
1/2) Seven Lakes
2/3/4) Jordan 
2/3/4) Cypress Woods
3/4/5/6) Cy-Fair
3/4/5/6) JET
5/6/7/8) Cinco Ranch
5/6/7/8) Tompkins

Bubble Finalists:
9/10/11) Cypress Ranch
9/10/11) Katy 
9/10/11/12) Paetow
9/10/11/12) Langham Creek 
10/11/12/13) Jersey Village

Yeah there was feedback that kinda forced them to cut the mic feed. You could still hear them and it didn't affect my viewing of the show too much.

Whoever made the choice to play movie soundtracks instead of terrible pop song covers during the intermission, you are my hero

Yes bro. 

[tubapop]

Sounds like Jordan did well. How was 7L's performance?

[Tailgate88]

This Area I feed is the best I have seen from NFHS. Centered, decent audio, screen graphics with schedule and time (occasionally) and you can even understand the announcer.

Aside from some electronics issues they did well!

[tubapop]

I'm glad Tailgate88 mentioned a feed because I wasn't aware it existed! Signed up just in time to watch Bridgeland perform. They knocked it out of the park - a very solid run, aside from a couple of minor spacing issues. The french horn and trombone duet at the end was much improved.

Eager to watch the rest and for finals tonight.
