Love the fact that Vista Murrieta is venturing here! A band to watch out for as they certainly have a chance of slipping into finals.

Love the fact that Vista Murrieta is venturing here! A band to watch out for as they certainly have a chance of slipping into finals. How exciting would that be?! I’m pumped that we now have at least 3 bands venturing in from out of the state! Or is it just two?? I remember Westlake from Utah, but now I am drawing a blank on who else I was thinking was coming to San Antonio this fall. 🤔

I completely missed Vista Murrieta! That's incredibly exciting! Combine that with the two rumored Midwestern bands yet to be announced and we've got another classic San Antonio competition on our hands.
I really wish I could go!

Archbishop Alter is one of the Midwestern bands!

And Blue Springs is a rumored band possibly coming as well. This could be the most out of state bands we have ever had in San Antonio! It could really be the GN of the South.

Archbishop Alter is one of the Midwestern bands! That’s awesome. You will have to make the trip home if we get all of these out of state bands in San Antonio.

Is Rouse coming back this year?
With Waxahachie, Wakeland, Cy Fair, Dripping Springs, Vista Murrieta, and possibly more big contenders coming this year after not competing last year here and basically all of the finalist contenders except for Halton returning, this might be the most crazy San Antonio yet.

Fantastic! How did I forget Oak Ridge in the contenders list? JET was pretty good, too.

This year I am trying to decide if i should attend San Antonio instead of GN (both? lol) and the list so far is making it hard to choose. Never been to major Texas regional but have always wanted to go. There is one group that would decide for me if they end up on the list but if they attend neither comp I have some thinking to do lol. If both are super competitive and i can only choose one i really hope flomarching has their ducks in a row this time and keeps improving their video quality.

If you have not been to SA and you have been to GN before, you most definitely need to attend San Antonio at least once. And this will be a great year to do that!

Go to both!!

My plan is to go to both this year. After being at SA in 2017 and GN a week later, I have to say the IMHO SA was a better contest and more exciting that year. No one could really predict the final placements at SA even after everyone found out who would actually be in finals. Keep in mind, Lucas Oil has escalators.

I didnt take into account the escalators. That may change things lol. But seriously if i could afford it i would do both just for the chance of a close comparison between the two. After almost 10 years at nationals a changeup would be nice.

Oh right I forgot about that! GN doesn't have that specific kind of VIP experience but i do get the seats in the good sections usually so i guess its similar. definitely something to think about. Need those participant lists now lol. Its usually April but i think it was later last year, like well into May IIRC.

Due to a schedule conflict with a Saturday football game. Similar situation to the TWHS BOA Conroe situation last year. Hope they can get something worked out with the school board.
