Houston, TX (88.600)

We are finally in Texas! I always dread coming to Texas because of the weather, but I always end up enjoying it. Today was extremely hot, but somehow I didnt mind the heat. When we got to the school this morning, we had a long hike to the gym and we had to climb 2 flights of stairs to get there. Lucky for us, the school was really nice and we had great rehearsal facilities. Also, we had a production run ensemble again today instead of doing a full run through.

The show was in an awesome stadium somewhere in Houston and we performed second to last. We had a great hornline warmup and an even better show. Its pretty weird to think that my score tonight was higher than my finals score in 2006 and we still have 22 days left till finals! We have a great opportunity this year...

We got beat by the Cadets again tonight, but we are still in 3rd place going into the San Antonio regional. Hopefully we can show everyone who is boss on Saturday when we finally go head to head with every corps in DCI... After all, we are performing last!

Off to bed,
Later days,
Patrick

First off, that was a high school stadium... kinda sad it was bigger than some of the college stadiums we've been to (minn state)

Second, I think they're just playing with the Cadets-Crown scores to sell more tickets in San Antonio. Crown is obviously better, read the forums or talk to anybody who watches both shows.

Good show, good luck tomorrow night
