Jag Posted December 3, 2005 Share Posted December 3, 2005 Our school played in 2 parades, the organizers of the second parade only let about half the band march so it wasn't as fun as usual. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fortisimo Posted December 4, 2005 Share Posted December 4, 2005 We just marched in the Neiman Marcus Adolphus parade today. It was fairly ****, since we had to have a 6:30 am call time. We also march in the Arlington 4th of July parade every year. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Skippy Posted December 4, 2005 Share Posted December 4, 2005 I haven't marched a parade since freshman year, and that sucked so much. The Bristol parade on 4th July, 2004, that I marched in with the Crossmen... it was pouring rain, and we were marching in ankle deeps puddles. I've had some abd parade experiences.

DanWeiss Posted December 14, 2005 Share Posted December 14, 2005 Parades can be fun. There is nothing I like more then marching to drum cadences. My band never did any big ones (like Macy's or the Rose Bowl) because that would have been our band trip, we never had enough money to go on two. I guess that doesn't include trips to Area/State and BOA marching, but they weren't really 'fun chill' trips, more like competition serious trips. So we saved our major trip for concert season. Instead, we participated in the local Thanksgiving Sun Bowl parade, and a 4th of July Parade every other year. Gross heat for that one though.
