[fancypost bgcolor=; bordercolor=; borderwidth=0px; width: 334px; height: 134px; overflow: auto; color: #FFFFFF; font-family: arial;][justify]Hey! I am so glad that you created this thread. I am indeed a band nerd! I play the trumpet in both the concert and marching ensembles. Unfortunately, I am a senior and I already experienced my last season of marching band. But my director is not the most easygoing, so I was about done by the end of it anyways.[/fancypost]

[fancypost bgcolor=; bordercolor=; borderwidth=0px; width: 334px; height: 134px; overflow: auto; color: #FFFFFF; font-family: arial;][justify]No, marching band is just a high school experience for me. Our show this year was called Empire Rising, and it was about the construction of the Empire State Building. Our drum major won the best drum major award from that show, even if we didn't win with it. [/fancypost]

From getting first place, he also got to conduct the all-star band. The all-star band marches in a big parade for Thanksgiving. It was cool to watch him. Anyways, so far, what show has been your favorite? Even though it wasn't that good, my freshman year show will always be in my heart. Plus that was he show that we won fifth place overall with. It was a day of victory for the Marching Titans.[/fancypost]

[fancypost bgcolor=; bordercolor=; borderwidth=0px; width: 334px; height: 134px; overflow: auto; color: #FFFFFF; font-family: arial;][justify]Wow, that sounds really cool! My shows for all four years are also gonna be on YouTube. I could post them if you wanted as well. But my freshman year, our show was New Beginnings. It was centered around the creation of a new land. Sophomore year we did Argentina: 1955. It was about the rise and fall of the tango. In that show, we actually did do some tango. Then junior year we did Candide. It was based off a play by Voltaire. It was still pretty fun music. Although the thing that anyone will notice about us is that we play better than we march. Freshman year we were only about 40 strong, and we sounded louder than the group 3 bands. But each year we got bigger and bigger and senior year we had over 60 members.[/fancypost]

But I will surely watch the rest of them tomorrow. You guys have a great sound for a smaller band. You're similar to my band in that respect. And I think I may have heard "what does the fox say" in there somewhere haha.[/fancypost]
