I know Farmersville typically always goes to the Mineola contests in the past and has had a lot of success not to mention some of their 4A competitors go there as well so it's a good spot to gauge where you stand in the middle of the season. Not to take away from Aubrey, I'm sure there will be some good bands there as well. Quote
bxOxAxUIL Posted August 16 Posted August 16 I think the top 10 will be these groups (in no particular order): West Mesquite Newman Smith Frisco Denton James Bowie Kennedale Springtown Whitesboro Grandview Bells Quote
GarbagePatchKid Posted August 17 Posted August 17 Can anyone with any insight comment on the parking situation at the contest? I used to always go, but the last year I went I ended up circling the parking lot for 30+ minutes looking for a spot. I went through Aubrey this summer and it looked like there was a lot of construction at the high school. Quote

Expand Never been to the one in Aubrey, I thought about going myself but think I might go to the Sounds of the Fall in Princeton or the Iron Horse Classic in Mineola. Quote

Expand Yeah I’m trying to decide where I am going that weekend too. I really do not like the Princeton contest either. The road noise from 380 comes right over the back of the stadium and drowns out the bands. I’ve been two years in a row and the same thing happened. Maybe I’m just bad at picking seats. I thought about going back to Aubrey but I don’t want to have to fight for parking again. Quote

Expand I wish I can watch big schools too but for me there is too much going on at times and some of the schools go from end zone to end zone and I end up missing stuff. The smaller schools is more my style. I do try and see some big schools but for me sometimes less is more. OGFISD99 and GarbagePatchKid 2 Quote
