CTJBandPops Posted September 27, 2017 Report Share Posted September 27, 2017 Hmmmm! we did the VIP at Grand Nats (Twice) and it was even worse (you don't want to know) - we started doing the VIP in SA 4 or 5 years ago when it was $100 - still worth it as you can get up and walk around - that is a lot of hours in a seat my wife and I get the good seats - the kids and family get general admission Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But my former band kid/current college kid will probably want to come too. She's at Texas State so I can just pick her up on my way down. Something to consider for sure.

LostChoirGuy Posted September 30, 2017 Report Share Posted September 30, 2017 My early predictions: 1. Flower Mound 2. Avon 3. Claudia Taylor Johnson 4. Hebron 5. Vandegrift 6. The Woodlands 7. Leander 8. Cedar Park 9. Round Rock 10. Marcus 11. Reagan 12. Cedar Ridge 13. Keller 14. Hendrickson I expect Round Rock and Marcus to peak at GNats, which is why I have them a bit lower. Next few out would be Bowie, LD Bell, Churchill, Coppell, Vista Ridge, and Cy Fair if Harvey hasn't affected them too much.

snares Posted October 1, 2017 Report Share Posted October 1, 2017 I’ll keep it simple and will update this right before we get to SAN ANTONIO, but here’s my basic layout so far: 1-4 (alphabetical order): Avon, CTJ, Flomo, Hebron 5-9 (random order, got tired of putting them in alpha order): TWHS, Marcus, Vandegrift, Marcus, Leander 10-14: Round Rock, Reagan, Bell, Cedar Park, Keller Bubble: Hendrickson, Keller, Cedar Park, Vista Ridge Music: Hebron Visual: Avon GE: CTJ, Hebron or Flomo Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Drum major Posted October 1, 2017 Report Share Posted October 1, 2017 1. FloMo 2. CTJ 3. Avon 4. Hebron 5. Marcus 6. Woodland 7. Vandy 8 Round Rock 9. Regan 10. LD Bell 11. Leander 12. Cedar Park 13. Bowie 14. Hendrickson. From what I saw of FloMound - this is probably their year .... AGAIN. With CTJ - it's all about the "remember factor.".. BOA loves that and you definitely are sucked into their show and remember it! My hope is that Cedar Park and Bowie keep getting better and better. I'd love to see Bowie have a comeback year! Round Rock just keeps getting better and better so they may be a little higher if they give the best performance. I also suspect that RR and and Marcus to peak at Grand Nats. I haven't seen Regan so that is just a guess. This years has to the be the most competitive year thus far with very little room for error - the scores are so closed that with one error it will open the door for another band to slip in. Depending on what happens at BOA Conroe, this who predication may go out the window. CTJBandPops 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cedar Park H.S., TX 12. Ronald Reagan H.S., TX 13. James Bowie H.S., TX 14. Winston Churchill H.S., TX Thoughts? I'd personally switch Marcus and RR. RR is known for not being very high at this contest and then absolutely kill it come nationals. I wouldn't expect this year to be an exception. Also CTJ and the Woodlands (at the moment) are huge wild cards. If the woodlands doesn't win the Conroe regional they could easily be 4th or 5th, maybe lower. With a win at Conroe, top 3 isn't out of reach. If CTJ continues to tweak and refine the show I wouldn't be surprised to see them end up top 3. Also after seeing a video of Avon from the Fishers invitational, they are absolutely going to have a great shot at the visual and GE awards. If the music has some major typical late season cleaning, they'll certainly make a good shot for the first place finish. I really can't see them being out of the top 3 as of now.

zururoua Posted October 8, 2017 Report Share Posted October 8, 2017 1-4 (alphabetical): Avon CTJ Flomo Hebron 5-9: Leander Reagan Vandegrift Woodlands Marcus 10-14 + Bubble: Bowie Cedar Park Cedar Ridge Churchill Hendrickson Keller Keller Central LD Bell Round Rock Vista Ridge Geez I thought my list was done and then I just had to keep adding. It's going to be an INSANE competition for sure. This is 19 bands competing for 14 finals spots and for sure there are even more that could make it.

zururoua Posted October 8, 2017 Report Share Posted October 8, 2017 They could for sure. Their Conroe showing however did hurt them a little. I think they'll be peaking at nats, not here. Trying to name one band from the 5-9 category I think Round Rock could beat... Leander, who they beat at Austin? But Leander in 10th seems just bizarre. Same for Reagan, Vandy, Marcus, and The Woodlands. Not to mention all of this happens a month from now, and anything can happen in a month. It's just SO stacked in all the finals spots that there's just no way to predict exactly how it's all gonna play out. The top 10 at this thing are gonna be just short of insane.

Nny14 Posted October 9, 2017 Report Share Posted October 9, 2017 as in record score at BOA SA Highest score at any non-grand nats event. That score is even crazier when you realize Marcus was about 2 points ahead of the Grand National Champion. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
