So I made a hype video for the 2007 drum corps season this year and showed it to them. They got the idea pretty quickly. If I can find the video I'll post it up. _________________________ West Geauga High School 06-10 - Bass, Snare, Quads Glassmen Hopeful 2009

To be honest, most of our football game crowd leaves after halftime, proof enough they're here for the band. _________________________ [-Hickory High-] 2nd Bass-2004/2005 (Windows Into War) Snare-2005/2006 (Phantom of the Opera) Snare-2006/2007 (The 1002nd Arabian Night) Snare-2007/2008 (South American Sketches) [-Old Dominion University-] Snare-2008/2008 (Queen)

Anonymous Unregistered	Yea all our guy sports suck at our school and the band dominates. Our Marching band is the best 1A band in the state(we beat a couple 4A bands), our concert band is the best 1A in the state, and our jazz band is 8th in the state. The football team won 1 game this year. Plus our band includes 80 of the 160 in our highschool. The football team schedules their practice times around when the band is using the football field. Its kinda funny.

Anonymous Unregistered	Were a 3A school so we have a bit over 500 kids in our school and our band is around 125 kids. So band isnt made fun of. People get mad at the band though cause it overshadows all the oter programs like football. Cause we have placed good at state (6th is our best) and they havent made it there. So people get pretty mad at us for some reason lol. Like we have a shirt that says. "For your viewing pleasure, we will have a football game before and after our performance." - the Band it made some people mad

Hey, hey don't complain. Your band is not that small. That's how many people we have when there's no holiday. The band in our school is pretty loved at football games, but otherwise ignored. No one cracks on us or praises us. The dumline however is another story. It depends on how good we are. This year about everyone hated us but the year before (i wasn't a member) everyone said they were awesome. The other thing is everyone in the marching band hangs out with, dates, sits with, and does stuff with the marching band, we're like a big (small) family. So we're usually not around people to mess with us except in classes. _________________________ Cypress Lake High School Marching Pride Freshman - 06-07 - Snare Sophomore - 07-08 - Tenors Junior - 08-09 - Tenors, Drum Captain In the future - ??-?? - Center Tenor of some corps I used to be Apollo541
