1. Thanks for the help

2. It wasn't really a position requiring experience, it required knowledge, good personality, and ability to play all that we play.

3. Group Therapy would be our name. We play at parades almost every weekend. That's all, free entertainment for people and a chance for someone to play outside of a band or drum and bugle corps. I sound like a freakin' advertisement.

Well if some 9 year old prodigy had the ability to handle the requirements, no ones going to take that 9 year old seriously. All ages shouldn't be eligible.

Everyone in the line except 3 of us is over 22. It still works.

Knowledge, personality, and ability to play are all things that are shaped by experience.

I know I wouldn't take some 16 year old kid seriously if he tried to order me around. In 5 more years, I could see this as a likely situation, but this just sounds like a group of guys that gets together and plays...rather informal. It sounds like you're getting a bit serious for what the line functions as.

If everyone else in the line is over 22, and i happend to be one of them. i would NOT be bossed around by some 16 year old.

Also, you can always recruit new players.

So you have high school experience and you have control over guys that probably have college experience. First off, you're 16...you definitely have alot a lot to learn, second of all, you have high school experience, that's it, high school experience doesn't really cut it when you want to do something like this. Knowledge is one thing, experience is another. To answer your problem though, let the director do all the work, he's the only person that seems capable of doing what needs to be done. I know I sound like a prick but you have alot a lot to learn in this trade.

EDIT: I noticed that you said that it was your job to talk to members when there are problems. That's a pretty big responsibility for a 16 year old and takes a lot of maturity to deal with. Honestly, I would not try to have some 16 year old deal with my problems because frankly, I don't think he could handle it at such a young age. I wouldn't be surprised if most of the drumline questions your authority.

I call everyone should chill out.

Crescent Battleline has fallen under new management...mine. I'm 18 and the oldest on the line. His age isn't relevant. Give his some advice and be done with it.

This guy sounds like a jerk, Quintman, and doesn't need to be on your line. If he takes two members with him, so be it. I would rather have a line of 10 dedicated people than 13 jerks. Don't worry about him, and just keep worrying about your line.

There needs to be seriousness, not matter how informal the line is. The last thing I want to do is drive to a drumline practice, even though I am not paying for it, and just going to have fun, to chaos. Chaos isn't fun. Sounding like junk isn't fun. To be a leader means to be serious.
