Tanner (you might remember him), our drum captain, went into quite a bit of detail about what happened on your side of the stadium at lunch today. Though I don't really concern myself with it, our band directors aren't too good at making it fun (besides Quaale, our new Cavies age-out director (2003 SCV, 2004-2006 Cavies on euphonium... and he plays oboe)), or at least it seems that way from many of the people who are juniors in the wind sections- though the directors may have serious intentions, I've noticed that there is, in general, a dislike of the way they do things (though I don't like people chit-chatting on the field, either, I dislike our top two directors' making a production out of each instance of talking they decide to expose, thus wasting more time- and, a silly little "Get it? "Got" it!" thing, which we in the drumline believe promotes ADD). Apparently, a lot of these dissatisfied players will be quitting in their senior year. Maybe they'll find more motivation after this weekend, if we have a good time, but honestly- motivation is just as important as discipline. Sorry for the ramble, if it is found to be offensive.
