I could see the first 2 going either way, and possibly RIG up there depending on who brings what...I might be a little biased hahah...either way I'm excited to watch and see how the day goes!
I watched videos that I could find and put that together from what I saw from ATSC saturday and here are my ROUGH predictions. Some kind of disclaimer should go here also about them being my own and I don't mean to offend.
GC:ATSC/Totino
1RU:Totino/ATSC
2RU:Troy/RIG
3RU:RIG/TROY
4RU:Gretna
5RU:Dowling
watch for any of the other schools to sneak into that final spot in finals. It happened with Bellevue West at Ralston Rammageddon this last saturday
BB:ATSC...I mean come on they beat mitchell's band who is always really good
BC:Totino/ATSC....gonna give the slight edge to totino on this but ill keep ATSC in the hunt because the changes they made really helped
BV:ATSC....the ballad just gets me. I had tears in my eyes as I watched it at Ralston just because of how beautifully it was sung and interpreted.
In the above rankings the group listed first in the ties is the group I give the slight edge to. I just can't get past how totino got swept by waconia. I mean waconia is REALLY REALLY good this year but totino just shouldn't get swept. Also in the videos they looked a lot smaller numbers wise than usual.
I could see the first 2 going either way, and possibly RIG up there depending on who brings what...I might be a little biased hahah...either way I'm excited to watch and see how the day goes!
let me bridge into another topic....any predictions? ATSC is the only group I have seen so far so I don't feel I can make accurate predictions yet. I will start looking up videos and have one up tomorrow.
DID YOU KNOW HASTINGS HAS A BRIDGE IN THEIR SCHOOL!??!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!
hahahaha.
Exactly! lol! Usually I get all excited to look at this competition page to see what's up and then all that has been said is bridge bridge bridge. lol.
I wish we were going this year, but alas. I still might make the drive, though. I love this competition, it's always so good! Oh, and the bridge in the middle of the school is crazy awesome.

Prelim awards follow Upstage Revolution. Then people will eat. Finals will start at 7:00 and will I believe be the top 6 from AA just like in previous years. Top three in class A will get awards. Going of of what I heard from last year they announce best combo, best male and female soloists and also peoples choice during this time. Best Vocals and choreo will obviously be awarded during finals awards which is I'm guessing following Riverside Company's performance.....I think that is it
