marcomac29 Posted June 2, 2007 Posted June 2, 2007 I go to Mansfield, and I think our show is gonna' surprise some people. (in a good way) it's gonna' turn some heads that's for sure. How is everyone else looking? Quote
Vegiphobe Posted June 2, 2007 Posted June 2, 2007 Our show is going to revolutionize, just you all wait and see it! Quote
t3hZm4n Posted June 2, 2007 Posted June 2, 2007 Our arranger just started on our music this week, so I really don't have any expectations for next year yet, except that it'll be sweet being DM for it all. Quote
whitewing09 Posted June 2, 2007 Posted June 2, 2007 i think its gonna suck cuz theres alot of seniors with bad tude but owell Quote
rdzsaxplaya Posted June 2, 2007 Posted June 2, 2007 Man, we are gonna turn heads for sure, brand new uniforms, kick butt show! Its gonna be awesome! Quote
actualgirltrombone Posted June 2, 2007 Posted June 2, 2007 our band will be big. with like 40 flutes. and like 30 clarinets. i predict a woodwind-heavy show. =) Quote
Vegiphobe Posted June 2, 2007 Posted June 2, 2007 Yeah, our guard jumped from like 18... to like 40 O_o.... but then again, now we have about 19 clarinets and like 12-13 flutes >_<... Saxes jumped from 5 altos to 12... heh.... 2 Tenor saxes to 4 , and a pretty massive drumline. Quote

BassoonPadwan Posted June 2, 2007 Posted June 2, 2007 Well we have one director change. It's hard to tell. We will definitely have the best talent this year than any of our previous years that's for sure. But there is some resistance to the new director. With me being a section leader this year I'll will do everything I can to motivate. She is a really great director though! She came from Bowie. She's pretty hardcore. lol We're definitely gonna get whipped into shape. I think when people warm up to her and her high standards things will really take off. It's gonna be fun. =) Quote
marcomac29 Posted June 2, 2007 Author Posted June 2, 2007 This applies to the show music forum, but since nobody is replying on that one, I'll ask here. Do ya'll know the theme of your show? Quote

Now we have 40!!! Our show theme is called moving forward. It's Imogen Heap music... and Lux Aurumque by Whitacre for the ballade Quote

Fata1 Posted June 3, 2007 Posted June 3, 2007 We just finished or first session of summer band and things are going pretty good. We only got one new freshman for the French Horn section which brings our total up to an amazing six. Anyway, our new freshman makes me want to shoot myself. Shes so lazy and she thinks everything should go her way. On top of that, she's not very good. Everything else seems to be going great though. The rest of our section is really strong as is most of the entire band. We're getting new uniforms and our music is really cool. To add to the hype, it's a state year for us since we're 4A. This year is going to be really fun. Quote

barisaxy08 Posted June 3, 2007 Posted June 3, 2007 well...all i can say for westfield is just...new everything new staff new generation new leadership new drum majors new show theme new drumline (7 basses, 7 snares) and a new way to approach this marching season. im just expecting this year to be one of the greatest years in marching band history.

bossman Posted June 4, 2007 Posted June 4, 2007 umm...that's a tough post to follow. it's amazing how many ppl come flocking to this forum when the season is about to begin. to me it adds hype to this long awaited season, BUT i think (idk why) that something will happen that will change this season DRASTICALLY. Example: AlamoDome collapsing the day before Super Regional. Just my 2 centz Quote

Can't wait. =) EDIT* Amusicman said: Which director is leaving? Actually two directors have left. James Van Zandt(going to get his masters) and Eric Carraway(finding himself...?). We've only replaced one of them though right now. They will be missed. Quote

crazyjakeup Posted June 4, 2007 Posted June 4, 2007 as long as im no were to be found thats fine with me... Quote
TRtrumpet Posted June 4, 2007 Posted June 4, 2007 I think my band will do better than last year. Hopefully since we have good DMs this year (inculding me, lol), it'll help alot. Were also getting bigger. We're going from about 30 this year to about 50 next year. Quote
the terminator Posted June 5, 2007 Posted June 5, 2007 I'm really excited our band will practically double in size, and we are still 3A for one more year, so we will try to rule 3A Quote
chickora Posted June 5, 2007 Posted June 5, 2007 Yeah, I think our show is going to be quite different than most of our shows these past years. I believe we are actually going BOA style this year. Be prepared. We've already had our fundies stuff. Now the first day of band camp, which is July 30th will be the first day we start painting our show..crazy. We usually learn mid second week. Plus, our band camp is a whole extra week longer. WAAAH. But so fun! Hopefully Julian gets his butt down here so I can get some stress off. Quote
