Sousa or Contra?
Shiloh Phoenix replied to T-ratbowieband's topic in Everything Music: Marching, Concert, Auditions and more
sousaphone=tradition(fat lazy parade tubas, you know) Contras=Hardcore(anyone that can take a season with one of those is a real man. you ever tried playing one for a few hours? It's murder!) -
Love the tuba groove part. no not the "freeze!" section. the one after that. It's cool.
-
Um everyone is my section is pretty cool. Tubas at Richland are awesome people lol. EDIT: Oh I guess that means I'M that kid lol.

To The Class of '08

Well I know I'm gonna be sad but I'll probably be going to UNT so it won't be that different people wise and location wise when I graduate. -
Are you implying that Richland didn't perform hummingbrrd as good as the bluecoats could Hash Brown? well you'd be right! I know I tried my absolute hardest with my solo but I never heard us play the whole thing together once. I hope the Bluecoats will have a tuba solo as well, anybody seen their show yet? I know Alberto Ocasio the contra if any of you guys have met him. He's a great player

Is Having A Girlfriend/Boyfriend Overrated?
Shiloh Phoenix replied to Aegis Fang's topic in General Off-Topic
OBJECTION! oh wait, no, I love my girlfriend. Nevermind. -
well, BOA arlington prelims. I played my tuba solo and it was PERFECT, and that crowd reacted to the dance part of hummingbird perfectly. I've never heard a crowd react like that. Ever. even at DCI contests. Of course that night our electronics didn't work, we crapped our pants, and left with a golf clap. Bleh.

Yamaha is a great brand if you buy the right horn, such as a YBB-321 tuba may not be the best choice for a concert tuba, but a YF-101(I think) is a GREAT F tuba. and don't get me started on the quality of their contras, it's phenomenal. speaking of gawdy trumpets... http://www.harrelsontrumpets.com/satellite1.htm or: http://www.inderbinen.com/Page_e/Davinci_e.html go to the other trumpets on that 2nd website, they're gorgeous!

Is Having A Girlfriend/Boyfriend Overrated?
Shiloh Phoenix replied to Aegis Fang's topic in General Off-Topic
Well, my girlfriend is incredibly smart(11 in the senior class I believe) and she is more level-headed than me, and I really dislike drama. It's the perfect relationship, she's a huge band and school geek, and so am I. It's not over-rated, if you find the right person. -
UIL Music
Shiloh Phoenix replied to bored2damax's topic in Everything Music: Marching, Concert, Auditions and more
We sightread that march for our middle school cluster concert. Very tough for a middle school piece. About on par for high school. we're playing(1st band at Richland): Shastakovich: Symphony No.5 Finale Persichetti: Symphony for Band(muted tuba solos? heck YES!) Hindemith: March from Symphonic Metamorphoses I like our program. It's loud and minor. -
first snow day I can remember today.

What do you do while thinking about dogs? hey, I didn't say you HAD to do it.
