QuadraticBeats Posted August 23, 2006 Posted August 23, 2006 What a way to break in freshmen, though . On the plus side, water breaks have been done regularly this year... rehearsal is being ran so well at our school this year, I have no idea as to how we survived the dehydration last year. Next week (at least in Central Texas), it appears that temperatures are going down about 6-7 degrees. Or that's what I saw yesterday. Quote
txsweetheart183 Posted August 23, 2006 Posted August 23, 2006 I like the heat..now. Its what makes texas marching, texas marching. Quote
TRtrumpet Posted August 23, 2006 Posted August 23, 2006 I love the heat, lol. As long as you got lots of water and sunscreen it's all good. Quote
rdzsaxplaya Posted August 24, 2006 Posted August 24, 2006 We have no problem with the heat, but then again it feels great marching in the cold when its still dark out in the mornings! But its all good Quote
TRtrumpet Posted August 24, 2006 Posted August 24, 2006 Now cold... I have a problem with lol. I'd rather march in the heat. Quote
txsweetheart183 Posted August 25, 2006 Posted August 25, 2006 Yea, we went to New York for the Boscov's Parade over Thanksgiving. We almost died!.. I mean they gave us hand warmers but as drummers it kinda knocks it loose out of our gauntlets. I choose heat. Quote
Trumpeter07 Posted August 25, 2006 Posted August 25, 2006 Quote love the heat, lol. As long as you got lots of water and sunscreen it's all good. Sunscreen who needs sunscreen. I don't. I don't ever wear it. It just makes me feel all gross and like i'm gonna drop my horn. ew! Quote
rdzsaxplaya Posted August 25, 2006 Posted August 25, 2006 Hahaha...Wimps! J/P well personally i dont have a problem with either but w/e i just get tired of marching in the heat since all summer im working in the heat....after awhile it gets kinda like you wanna strangle someone j/k Quote
trumpetman1288 Posted August 25, 2006 Posted August 25, 2006 I'm not going to complain about the heat especially since it has been a lot cooler down here than in the past. Our morning rehearsals have been so much cooler, about 75-80 on most days. It usually is like that anyways, but its FREAKISHLY humid, and it's gone for some reason. Oh well Our after school rehearsals haven't been bad either. It's been in the 90-97 range on average. Compared to the 100+ we usually get, it's not too bad. Quote
sax5warrior Posted August 26, 2006 Posted August 26, 2006 Well, think of it this way. This 100 degree heat is a lot cooler than in Mercury and Venus Quote
Claritone Posted August 26, 2006 Posted August 26, 2006 Doesn't really bother me unless were just standing around marking sets... Quote
txsweetheart183 Posted August 26, 2006 Posted August 26, 2006 still doesnt bother me cuz theres always somethin to be doin .. NOT TALKING! but yea i just sit there and play my part on my harness if i have my drum on or if not then on my chest... heat makes me sweat thats about the only thing it does to me haha mine was completely random but thats ok Quote
Claritone Posted August 26, 2006 Posted August 26, 2006 I just dont want my farmers tan to get any worse!!! Quote
Hawkeye Posted August 26, 2006 Posted August 26, 2006 Farmers tan!? Nope, you have a Band Tan. Just imagine, the heat could be much worse, or your air could be polluted, lol. Quote
Danpod Posted August 26, 2006 Posted August 26, 2006 Hmmmmmm........ Maybe I'll have a little giveaway where I come visit a band after practice and bring them tons of popsicles. Just a thought Quote
jellybeansrgreat08 Posted August 26, 2006 Posted August 26, 2006 psh, thats what your highschool dance team is for. our dance team brings us popsicles everyonce in a while cuz they just love us that much. the heat doesnt bother, but can i laugh cuz im black. Quote

Awww...all our dance team does is go "THANK YOU BAND!" after their instructor tells them to. But they do provide entertainment sometimes, so it's not bad Quote
Keyboard_Countessa Posted August 27, 2006 Posted August 27, 2006 If I recall, the only time the drill team brought the band popsicles was after practice on the day of the UIL marching contest. They'd also make a banner that said something like "Good Luck Band!". They were okay. Quote
EuphToth Posted August 27, 2006 Posted August 27, 2006 I wish I got a popsicle, I'm just a poor popsicleless person... Quote
