Xenon Posted October 27, 2013 Report Share Posted October 27, 2013 It is going to be a really weird 4A State with no Dripping Springs nor Centennial. 2011's Silver and Bronze respectively. geebee1022 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

whitewing09 Posted October 27, 2013 Report Share Posted October 27, 2013 Yes. We both are. It's our first state year in the school's history, so we're excited. Congratulations on taking the area champion spot! Meggotots 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post OreoGuy2016 Posted October 27, 2013 Popular Post Report Share Posted October 27, 2013 Im from Waxahachie and i am so excited to see all the bands competing at this contest. Hearing great things about Cedar Park, Vista Ridge, Vandergrift, ect. I have not yet watched their videos because i would like to see them up close. I guess it all comes down to next Tuesday. Good luck to all the bands competing. mariov2, InsaneBran, tautry and 1 other 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Meggotots Posted October 27, 2013 Report Share Posted October 27, 2013 However, I havent been able to find very good videos of Friendswood or Poteet this year so any links would be appreciated. src="http://youtube.com/watch?v=q10ydfl3Ul0?version=3" frameborder="0"/> this was about a month ago so they have cleaned a LARGE amount of stuff but here's the best one we have online.

Mclovin Posted October 27, 2013 Report Share Posted October 27, 2013 Area B was by far, one of the hardest areas to compete in, so many great schools fighting it out for a spot at state, it was a big surprise that underdogs like Newman Smith and Lake Ridge were able to knock of big contenders like centennial and legacy, it all came down to focus, determination and who wanted it more!

InsaneBran Posted October 27, 2013 Report Share Posted October 27, 2013 Congrats for Lake Ridge on making it to State! I agree that both Centennial, Vista Ridge, and Vandergrift all have awesome shows, but Waxahachie is really surprising this year. Waxahachie absolutely dominated Area C, regardless that they only used Prelims results, and not to mention that this year, not all the bands that have medaled before are competing in State. I think this year is gonna be an interesting, especially for all of the people who are predicting that Waxahachie will not advance. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Theberrytoner Posted October 28, 2013 Report Share Posted October 28, 2013 After hearing all these area results I took my predictions and made a nice firewood out of them because it's not what I was expecting, although my band is competing, it goes without saying, but it's going to be one roller coaster of a competition. We have dark horse, power house, top notch , and rising star programs competing this year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BandIzCool Posted October 28, 2013 Report Share Posted October 28, 2013 I dont know why people counted Waxahachie out in the first place for finals. The past 2 state years, waxahachie has been in finals at state. Not to mention they dominated Area C receiving a 6 score and the next band having a 17. It is going to be a very interesting day nov. 5th. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post fortheeuphs Posted October 28, 2013 Popular Post Report Share Posted October 28, 2013 I don't think Lake Ridge is as big of a competitor as everyone is making them out to be. They don't do a whole lot of marching. I'm personally excited to see what Waxahachie, Friendswood, Vista Ridge, Dawson, and Vandergriff have to offer heading into San Antonio this year. It's going to be a fierce in the Alama Dome this year. halftimewarrior, Bandnerd12, Lallelo and 1 other 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mariov2 Posted October 28, 2013 Report Share Posted October 28, 2013 Area C was fun to watch. Waxahachie was great and so was Poteet, I have a feeling Poteet will do very well this year. Opinions? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bassbass Posted October 28, 2013 Report Share Posted October 28, 2013 okay so i keep seeing ALOT about leander and dripping springs being huge competitors for winning but... they didn't make it past area. And Conally made it, do you think they have a chance? or was it a fluke? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NickTheDrummer Posted October 28, 2013 Report Share Posted October 28, 2013 okay so i keep seeing ALOT about leander and dripping springs being huge competitors for winning but... they didn't make it past area. And Conally made it, do you think they have a chance? or was it a fluke? In my opinion, anyone out of Area D has a legitimate chance at being a contender. It was a bloodbath yesterday, so many high-quality groups. I think even some of the ones who missed the finals cut (Georgetown, East View, Seguin, Hays) could have been very close to advancing to states had they been in another area, THAT'S how good the competition was. Connally absolutely has a chance- they surprised all of us, I think, by advancing to state, but it was definitely well-deserved. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Theberrytoner Posted October 28, 2013 Report Share Posted October 28, 2013 Well I actually am in the band, and I can say being a part of it alone is hard. It's just as hard if not harder than what other bands are doing, and the band actually truly wants to be good, nobody is trying to over hype we just want the state to know we are ready to do our best and what we love to do. noobsown 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
clarinetsrock Posted October 28, 2013 Report Share Posted October 28, 2013 I've marched shows in NY, and have seen bands from all over the northeast. Watched numerous shows in Texas since moving here, and I can honestly say LakeRidge's show is out of the box. No, it's not a traditional march, stand, play, march, stand, play show, but it's a crowd pleaser. The end is amazing, to get the band to sprial in and out and back into straight lines while running and at the tempo they do it at is pretty much awe inspiring. Their music is crisp, has good sounds. I have other favorite shows as well (Wakeland, Waxahachie to name two), but that one is in a league all of it's own. brandonxd and Theberrytoner 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Great trumpets, but didn't think there was much difficulty to the show. I'm sure we will see them in state finals. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
