Nevermind Leander is worse

Gotta be honest. Not a fan of the LED boards, or maybe it was their size or placement. They were distracting for me. Plus, we were sitting relatively close so we couldn't see much without looking at the video screens above. Personally would have placed them on the back field or maybe on the back hash. Cool effect though.

saucedo and carbone again!!! 6A redux, but w/ diff sheets.

upstairs vis judges are fab. 2 of my faves across all of the big 3 DCI/BOA/WGI. actually John doesn't judge guard for wgi anymore, not sure why. maybe he moved to the perc or winds side. Nola used to judge guard for wgi too.

Ugh box5!!!

I think it's back up.

Word of advice to those of y'all that think you can show up 3 bands into finals and get a seat between the 45s: You can't.

Lemme try

Currently watching Vistas finals run. I think my only personal disagreement with prelims results is having Vista bottom half. While there are some visual inconsistencies, this is top 3 brass IMO.

[bandlifer]

Vista's show is beautiful!

[WanderingTraveler]

OK, after intentionally observing both Cedar Park and Rouse…I think visually, Rouse wins the head to head. Despite the prelims captions, as far as finals runs go. Music goes to Cedar Park but marginally. I would argue some of the bands that will place below both of these groups would have a greater degree of GE, but thats personal opinion. So this is strictly a UIL comparison for Monday and Tuesday. Interested to see how the judges interpret this.

But did you listen to the liminal space?

Honestly I have TWHS and Reagan above Vandegrift for finals

Wow. It took 5 viewings for it to get me, but wow.

Am I in the minority in thinking Flower Mound was better in prelims? Still super impressed, but I noticed more mistakes in that run.

[TheSV-001Gamer]

I think the band with the better regional economy based on its hometown should win oh wait
