drumajorfernando Posted November 12, 2007 Posted November 12, 2007 Well today... was interesting to say the least, Me and six of my fellow seniors... got kicked out of band because of this...[its the first 30 seconds] Yes, we did the salute behind his back... Because we knew that he[Kendrick] wasn't going to allow it... Up until half time, Kendrick was under the impression of we were going to do a Senior Prank... Well...it looks like we didn't... We didn't embarrass the band, him, or anybody... We were just doing something special for senior night... Call it a Senior Surprise... Well...we're going to see what happens... Personally, I don't believe the crime, fits the punishment. Other then that, have a nice day. =] Quote
ddmwingz Posted November 12, 2007 Posted November 12, 2007 you got kicked out for that!?!?!? thats stupid. i dont even see what was wrong with it Quote
Fata1 Posted November 12, 2007 Posted November 12, 2007 (edited) Let me get this straight, you got kicked out because of that? I mean, I could understand the punishment if you did some obscene thing that made your band look bad but I didn't see anything wrong with what was done. Especially considering that it was senior night at a football game. Edited November 12, 2007 by Fata1 Quote

Fata1 Posted November 12, 2007 Posted November 12, 2007 Man. I mean, I can't really see our band director getting angry about something like that at all. I just can't fathom getting kicked out of band for that. Quote
drumajorfernando Posted November 12, 2007 Author Posted November 12, 2007 that's MINERAL WELLS for you... Quote
SerialSleeper90 Posted November 12, 2007 Posted November 12, 2007 man thats brutal. I know our director might've gotten a bit po'd doing something behind his back, but kicking out six seniors including a drum major for a salute is just beyond rediculous. Quote
chickora Posted November 12, 2007 Posted November 12, 2007 darn, and being a Drum Major must be a total dis. How is the band feeling about this? Quote
thePIXELelement Posted November 13, 2007 Posted November 13, 2007 I have to agree with Fata1, I don't see anything here worth getting kicked out for...It was senior night and you guys wanted to do something special that wasn't rude, obscene, or derogatory in any form or fashion...Someone needs to chill... Quote
SerialSleeper90 Posted November 13, 2007 Posted November 13, 2007 oh dude if your band supports you you should get them to rally... ... that would be kinda neato. Quote
thePIXELelement Posted November 13, 2007 Posted November 13, 2007 So is there any chance of you getting back into band our did you cross the line that should not be crossed? Quote
chickora Posted November 13, 2007 Posted November 13, 2007 Yeah, on our senior night, the flutes did the soulja boy in the middle of the show..and and we change a crappy visual of ours into a matrix thing... And we did not get kicked for that. That's just harsh. Quote
SerialSleeper90 Posted November 13, 2007 Posted November 13, 2007 on our senior night we did... nothing out of the ordinary. lol. Quote

Well, me and the other 5 are going to do something and then our parents are going to the superintendent about this also...tell Kaite Walsh and Luis Torres, Fernando says Hi! Quote
thePIXELelement Posted November 13, 2007 Posted November 13, 2007 (edited) I just can't fathom taking so much offense to this...I'll be sure to tell them Edited November 13, 2007 by thePIXELelement Quote
thePIXELelement Posted November 13, 2007 Posted November 13, 2007 drumajorfernando said: None of us do... I would get a petition going around the band... Quote
Fata1 Posted November 13, 2007 Posted November 13, 2007 I'm sure they'll do something. Surely someone with a higher power has enough sense to realize that a group of seniors shouldn't be kicked out because they were showing a little bit of pride on their night. You guys have given so much time to that band only to be kicked out for something so small. That doesn't seem right at all. Quote
drumajorfernando Posted November 13, 2007 Author Posted November 13, 2007 Our director, [Trent Kendrick], has been looking for something to kick us out... Quote
thePIXELelement Posted November 13, 2007 Posted November 13, 2007 I wonder what possessed him to make such a drastic decision... Quote
drumajorfernando Posted November 13, 2007 Author Posted November 13, 2007 Call my school and ask him...lol School Phone: 555-555-5555 ext. 5555 or Email: donotemail@mwisd.net Quote

I didn't give my school or name or anything though. It was just an anonymous email that I seriously doubt he'll reply to. Quote
drumajorfernando Posted November 13, 2007 Author Posted November 13, 2007 yeah we've had a lot of students e-mail him in the past Kendrick taught at Crowley ISD Quote
itsstephenyo Posted November 13, 2007 Posted November 13, 2007 Wow, talk about harsh. That's absolutely unreasonable. I've done much worse stuff than that during a show and heard about much worse. At one of the last playoff games we had, my friend and I hi-stepped the last few sets. And I was doing maybe 4-5's for most of those sets. We had a freakin' good laugh after that one. Quote
