This has alwayz been a dream of mine. Becuz sometimes i'm a little skepticle on the decisions that are made in shows. SO. I wanna know if any of u could design a show what would it be called; what would what it be musically.

Give alot of details or just give the general concept, but details are always nice to hear

"Crunk Juice: The Music of Little John"

I was thinking of a soundtrack show.

 

Selections include:

Batman begins

Ressurection from Passion of the Christ

Theme from Schindler's List

Central Park from King Kong

 

not too sure about schindler's list. I dont think that would blend much

[Tnilli]

My show would be simple.

 

A sheet would cover the field like a bubble from goal line to goal line...and lights would be put all inside of it so people are marching but all you can see are their shadows. All the time playing music from:

 

Signs, American Psycho, Jaws, and Scream

 

 

 

Yea i know what your reaction was:

1) WTF!?

2) God what an idiot...

3) HOLY heck YES!

 

and i am an idiot

haha, the closer should be something from Bubble Boy.

4'33" by John (?) Cage

 

That would be a fun show. Anyone happen to have a recording for those who haven't heard it? So as not to spoil the "surprise..."

hahaha, i could probably find one.

 

Such a beautiful song, genius too.

 

Would that be the ballad?

The Music of Radiohead featuring Everything In Its Right Place, National Anthem, Pyrimid Song and Paranoid Android.

- i think some college band did a Radiohead show, but to see a top Corp do this could be awesome.

I will be writing drill for a show that's entitled "Hoes in Eb"

 

I was thinking about having a trumpet soloist standing in the middle of the field dressed in a pimp suit with all the colorguard (having flags made out of 100 dollar bills) grabbin all on him while he's playing "Big Pimpin"...then there would be some cherography where there would be two marchers standing side by side and one would be slapping the other one and they would call to the ground then they all say "where's my money, ho?"

 

yeah...that's UIL state material right there...

I'd be DEAD if I had to do that.

 

One show that just recently did well was Godfather: Part Blue. I'd like to do a Mafia themed show off of that. You know, perform the Godfather on the hundred-yard stage. Badabing!

If you liked The Godfather: Part Blue, you should check out the UTA band performing "A Show You Can't Refuse"

supposedly there actually was a marching band with that song in their repertoire my freshman year, but it might have just been something else....although im sure it was 4:33, and wat u put is 4 foot 33 inches, lmao

[radioactive]

in distances (latitude/longitude) or in math ' is a minute and " is a second. I'm pretty sure it is actually written 4'33"

Tetris.....

 

Obviously, the music would include the various themes from the videogame 'Tetris', but the visual kicker would have the colorguard (And probably some alternates/shadows/stand-ins) each equipped with cardboard tetrahead 'piece' and while holding the 'piece' above their heads, start assembling a Tetris game midfield as the band plays, moving the colorguard with the tetraheads down one at a time starting backfield and moving frontfield.....and when 4 solid lines form, have those four lines of colorguard fall down with the "TETRIS!" sound byte played throughout the Flutes or something.

[tubamaxCHS]

The Music of Stravinsky would be awesome. Maybe open up with The Sacrifice from The Rite of Spring, and close with a selection from The Firebird. No idea what youd put in the middle, though.

[n3rdu5]

Doing a Tetris-themed show would allow some pretty awesome drill, methinks.

A school actually did that this year I believe, they had Niagara Falls as their closer.

[Hollister[co]Chic]

that mulan show would be awesome...i love that movie

and i think at least one person from everyband has thought of a Tetris show..my friend did..

but as for my show...it would be uber theatrical..really eerie (sp)..and just tell a story...each movement would be a chapter..as for all the details i've not yet thought of that! lol...just have the outline

I wanna see somethin like Bells show this year with even more stuff. im talkin over the top! with blood and stuff, that would be neat

the band directors were actually talking blood capsules at a time, but then decided it wasn't a very good idea.

[bossman]

wow really cuz thats wat im waitin to see on a field, becuz obviously bands are getting better and better, plus LD Bell, Marcus, and The Woodlands were the closest to a full out production this year.
