#162829 - 05/21/08 06:29 PM Audition or no?

I posted a topic previously in regards to my band director completely shutting me out from doing the drumline for this season, without even seeing me play. I took Dave_Fry's advice, and went right to the percussion instructor. Unfortunately, he made it apparent that it's not going to happen, though he's tried to get me a chance. BD is just not going to crack.


So is it worth it to go to auditions now? I'm really not sure. If I go, I already know the outcome and it'll feel like a waste. If I don't go, what kind of message does that send BD? I quit? He wins?

Help?

Yea, I would do the audition too

Even if you dont get in, oh well, audition anyway, try and make it fun, and if anything, itll mess with the other drummers heads

Audition = Earning your spot.

Audition, definitely. In my humble opinion.

I remember thinking about posting in this topic telling you not to go, but then I decided not to. Phew! Good thing I didn't post that, you'll have so much fun on drumline.
