Band Troubles

It was 2002. I was one of the ones that unloaded the sousaphones that night... -
[Major Event] UIL State Contest
JPeg16 replied to Xenon's topic in Past Contests, Events, and Festivals Archive
You're continually ignoring what they're saying and just reading what you want to read. You want to believe that everyone is complaining because Bell did not win. I, personally, see more complaints about Duncanville's 1st and 10th place vote than I do about Bell not winning. -

Hey, I'm doing Pioneer cymbals. Last camp was my first.

And if anyone lives more in the DFW area...feel free to come to a Frontier camp in Denton and check it out. It's also an all age corps (ages 14+) that just performs and travels on the weekends. There's sections open in hornline, drumline, and guard. It's some good times. I'm marching DCI this summer, then coming back and marching DCA, too. We've got a promising show concept this year. Musical selections include: "Ride" - Samuel Hazo "I'll Be Seeing You" -- Irving Kahal and Sammy Fain (New York Voices version) "Caravan" -- Juan Tizol "Scootin' on Hard Rock" -- David Holsinger and weaved throughout the show listen for Jethro Tull's "Living in the Past" The destination is not important; it is the journey. Each trek involves different paths and directions, new and exciting challenges, and behind each door, a choice and an opportunity. Where will it lead? Where will it end? There, and Back Again takes Frontier down some familiar paths along with a few detours. "Living in the Past" by Jethro Tull and clips from past Frontier productions are heard throughout the show, connecting where the corps started, it's home, heritage, values, and it's foundation. The corps will then progress into the future. Samuel Hazo's "Ride" opens the journey with optimism and drive, propelling the corps through contemporary jazz and symphonic sounds. "I'll Be Seeing You" brings the emotions of a journey to the forefront. This includes the longing and missing those who have traveled far or away, and hopeful wishes for a return home. "Caravan" has long been associated with traveling. Individuals never truly want to be alone, so the caravan is a safe place to take risks, knowing others are there to support, guide, and keep one on their path. "Scootin' on Hard Rock" highlights the elation of approaching one's destination. The road may be bumpy (much like the road this piece is based upon), but it provides the necessary path. The excitement is in finally arriving and enjoying that last stretch home. Frontier's slogan is 'Our Heritage is Our Future.' Knowing where you began is knowing where you are going. It is a nod to remembering those who came before and laid the groundwork that stands today. Heritage is important, but there is a drive into the future. Bigger and better things lie ahead. The corps is embarking on a journey. Don't feel scared to come by to our next rehearsal at Calhoun Middle School on March 29 (9-7) and 30th (9-3). www.frontiercorps.org

Bell found out the official title of their show the other day. It's what some people predicted. -
I apoligize
JPeg16 replied to barisaxy08's topic in Everything Music: Marching, Concert, Auditions and more
Yeah, honestly, I'm just a sucker for a heated argument. I love 'em sometimes. I can argue something I don't even believe in. -

Dude, it's fine...type how you want. It's one of the only ways you can show personality on here. As I said, it was just me being a loose. -

JPeg16 replied to barisaxy08's topic in Everything Music: Marching, Concert, Auditions and more
Honestly, bad grammar just bugs the crap out of me. lol. Don't take it too personally though. I've never been one for confrontation on anything my whole life and the past month or so I guess I just haven't been able to take much anymore because I've been a "loose canon" I guess. During church the other day I called this lady a "darn liberal" because she quoted Hilary Clinton. I have nothing against liberals and I'm not even that conservative...I just hate Hilary Clinton. -
haha, yeah well, I really would...especially since there's someone from Bell in the contra line, but I don't want to be a flake either.
-
I would if I didn't just say I was going to Blue Stars next week.

I hope things work out for me. I soo want to march contra.

Proper 4 to 5 technique
JPeg16 replied to Aegis Fang's topic in Everything Music: Marching, Concert, Auditions and more
A 4 to 5 and a jazz run are different. A 4 to 5 is with your toes pointed up and jazz running is with your toes down. -
