Bandlover Posted March 28, 2011 Report Share Posted March 28, 2011 I went to the Friendswood contest and loved it; hope we attend in 2011, the only problem was when the consessions ran out of pizza. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mellopwn1 Posted September 12, 2011 Report Share Posted September 12, 2011 According to their website, TWCP will not be attending finals because the students opted to go to their homecoming dance instead. So, that is is something to take into account when looking at Finalists. Â Top 5: Dripping Springs Brazoswood Clements Cy-Falls Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mellopwn1 Posted September 14, 2011 Report Share Posted September 14, 2011 BrazosPORT is attending, not BrazosWOOD.  Woops, I just knew they attended last year and saw "Brazos-" when skimming and assumed  Swap out Dawson for Brazosport...my apologies Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DorianDude Posted September 25, 2011 Report Share Posted September 25, 2011 I see on the predictions and here that we have Dripping Springs comming in and pretty much sweeping house like they did last year. I really don't think that will be the case. I think that the incredible jump of quality in terms of bands. (Area E's stronger attendence, for example) will make this a far more competitive year. Im not saying that DP won't win, but they (and pretty much everyone who wants to be in top 5 or so) isn't going to cruise right in. Good luck to all! Â 1st: Dripping Springs 2nd Dawson or Cy Falls 4th: Clements 5th: Seven Lakes or The Woodlands College Park or Clear Brook Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Thomas Posted September 29, 2011 Author Report Share Posted September 29, 2011 Good luck to all the bands involved! The weather looks great in the Houston area this weekend: High: 85 Low: 61 and sunny. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FoobYen Posted October 2, 2011 Report Share Posted October 2, 2011 2011 Friendswood results for Dripping Springs -- 2nd overall in finals with best colorguard and visual and 1st in 4A in prelims with best visual and music Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DorianDude Posted October 4, 2011 Report Share Posted October 4, 2011 Whatever band played after 7 Lakes (we were in the parking lot and could still hear the performance) had an absolutely amazing hornline. That Crazy Train arrangement is some of the best high school playing I've ever heard. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
