What if every band that wanted to compete was given the same show. Just like all-state audition etudes. Marching band would be so sad and boring. stop thats sad BlueCircle 1 Quote

Who is the most "talented" band regardless of design? What is the show given to the groups like? A controversial but interesting question to think about. Quote

LostChoirGuy Posted October 22, 2019 Posted October 22, 2019 Every band doing the same show sounds so sad. But the sightreading of the show sounds kinda fun actually. Maybe a 30 second portion separate from the field performance where every band gets the same 30 seconds of music and drill and they get judged on execution, 5 minutes of rehearsal work and re-execution. Edit: Also I know this is a ridiculous concept, I just think it would be hilarious to witness. vbassoon and LeanderMomma 2 Quote
Samuel Culper Posted October 22, 2019 Posted October 22, 2019 How about every band gets the same music but comes up with their own show interpretation? Quote

BandFan59 Posted October 23, 2019 Posted October 23, 2019 That sounds like it'd be very stressful to the performers, haha. Quote
