I'm so very disappointed FloMo isn't going to SA. It's a show I'd want to see live 50 times if possible, 5 would be really nice, but I'll have to settle for 3 (or 4???) Yes agree, would love to see them at San Antonio. On the flip side, if skipping that competition leads to more practice time/less burnout with the end result being a stronger show at Grand Nationals, I kind of support the move. I guess we have to remember that these are high school kids with school work and not young adults in DCI where they eat/breath/sleep drum corps all summer long. Burnout is definitely very real when it comes to this, especially for high school students. I always forget so someone will have to remind me, what are the rules for practicing on weekends for Texas bands? Would Flower Mound be able to use the SA weekend for a long Saturday practice of cleaning? I swear every year I have to refresh myself.

Regarding Flower Mound and rehearsing at home vs. performing on Super Regional weekend; the rehearsal time would still be subject to the 8 hour rule.

Regarding Flower Mound and rehearsing at home vs. performing on Super Regional weekend; the rehearsal time would still be subject to the 8 hour rule. As such, the "8 hour rule" exemption for rehearsal on a performance day means the groups participating in the Super Regional actually get MORE practice time in November than those bands who do not participate.

You are correct - an additional hour for “performance prep”.

1 Vandegrift (GE) 2 Ronald Reagan (Vis) 3 Hebron (Music) 4 The Woodlands 5 Claudia Taylor Johnson 6 Marcus 7 Vista Ridge 8 Cedar Park 9 Cedar Ridge 10 Coppell 11 Leander 12 James Bowie 13 Cypress Woods 14 Rouse I don't think I fully realized how ridiculous this regional was until I just pulled these together. A couple of quick thoughts: - Cypress Woods is my sleeper pick. I was incredibly impressed with them earlier in the season.
- I called Rouse top 5 early in the season and still feel strongly that they've earned every placement so far this season, but I have a bad feeling about this regional. I'm worried they'll be drowned out by all the bigger bands with such a delicate show, even after such a strong showing last week. Here's hoping GE carries them. I really want to see this show twice.
- Keeping my eye on Seven Lakes, Westlake, and Johnson for major upsets.
