forum Band Kids?

tune

how? and why?

We changed Directer's and he didn't have a list of the instruments we owned so some kids took that as an opportunity to steal instruments the bassoon being one of them.

We have a few more trombones in middle school, but most of them will probably quit before high school. At my school, if some kid joins band in middle school just so they don't have to take a different class, they're usually in low brass, and quit before high school.

That's the literal representation of sadness. It makes me soooo sad when other people don't enjoy playing their instruments as much as I do :(

I am only a freshman and our other baritone player is a senior, but i'm first chair which is pretty cool cuz i get all the baritone parts where there needs to be less brass cuz we sound like a wild stampede when we all are playing sometimes.

We just got new music and now we're talking about field shows, I suggested Broadway but we might be doing a Rock through the ages type of thing.

Cool…right now I'm in band class and we're doing pomp and circumstance for graduation this weeend

It's always pomp and circumstance. when I graduate we're playing the imperial march, I will make it happen

I'd like to be in a band, probably singing.

It's always pomp and circumstance. when I graduate we're playing the imperial march, I will make it happen

OMG DO THAT, AND YOU WILL BECOME MY IDOL!

I've been trying but It will happen, it will, i will hijack the system get a class vote, i will make it happen

I hate pomp and circumstance.

Right! its so boring

Yeah! It's so repetitive and long….urgh

Do you guys know what your marching band theme is for next season's show is?

Nope. I should probably ask our director on Monday though.

We have like a rock through the ages theme.

Ours is Dreamcatchers, but they're also deciding to show 'appreciation for the native Americans who created dreamcatchers".
Because of cultural appropriation, we can use anything stereotypical, so the only thing alluding to the Native American part of the show is the colours and the show title (Ojibwe).

Cool!

Cool! Our theme is "Stars" but we don't get the music until this upcoming Thursday because it's still being composed/written XD

We don't even get our music until next year starts lol

Really? So you get your music during band camp?

Yeah.

But our band camp is literally only three days lol

ours is going to be a week long maybe two weeks if we can convince our director.
