Secretly you love the sound of a good marching band, admit it. Feel free to discuss marching band here.

Oh, the horrors! This thread is bringing back all the nightmares of a Texas marching band!

Oh, last Friday we played ball in a Dollarway, and it's like all black. There was 1 white guy on their team and they have about 60 people on the team.
And not to racial profile, but we all knew the band was about to be hype before we went in. And they were. Their drumline was hardcore. Their whole band was hardcore. I was impressed.

Our poor drumline was horrible. I went to a really small school, and we only had about 30 members (at our highest).

our band is small now. it used to be hardcore, but we've had a hard time with directors lately =( i think the guy they have now is good though so it should rebuild.

My old high school went through 2 directors my Senior year, and they've had, I think 3 since then. We just can't seem to hold on to them since the one left to become elementary principle. However, they look great this year, which is impressive 'cause marching band isn't really our thing. We're small (we get about 120 members total between both bands which are split 9th and 10th grades and the other being 11th and 12th) and our two bands only practice together about 3 times before marching events.
But yeah, our drumline was usually pretty descent, but we never really got to do anything cool ... our percussion director is rather old school and doesn't really believe in being showy.
