  1. well, i wont be graduating till next year but i'm looking at University of North Texas, UT Austin, and also U of H, also wanting to be a music education major.
  2. our drum majors go to camp somewhere else but all the other leaders stay at our school for a few days a go through a leadership program. they learn the meaning behind the show concept, how to march better and also how to lead the band better.
  3. we had one girl in the baritone section last year and she was a haas... she marched a dynasty and she was on loading crew (the people that load the truck) so she was a little too manly for me... no offense to any manly women out there...
  4. SUMMER!!!
  5. Sean Connery???
  6. I honestly feel that for a band to have a spectacular performance, they must have a slow movement. Does that mean that they have to march slow, of course not. It just simply means that they can be playing at 80 BPM but march in double time at 160 BPM. For example, look at the top 3 placements at the 5A State Finals last year. Duncanville with October, Cedar Park with the ballad in Jupiter (one of my all time favorites), and L.D. Bell with Blue Cathedral (i think). For any band to truly move and inspire the audience and judges, you have to have a part of your show devoted to the emotional side of music playing.

  8. FRIENDS (that episode where Rachel teaches Ben all the practical jokes and Ross hates it. Anybody...?)

  10. Don't dread it. If you have gone before then you know that it can be a lot of fun. There is sooo much to do in the city and Chicago is only about 2 or 3 hours away. Cedar Park went to the NCBF last year and went to Chicago for a few days of fun afterwards. I personally enjoyed listening to the Honor Band and Honor Orchestra. They are like Region bands on steroids. You will have fun, don't worry!
