Re: Band Camp

I remember someone I know telling me that they were going to, but I honestly can't remember who. As for myself, no.

Re: Band Camp

K?
I know there's plenty of band geeks on this site just waiting to tell me how awesome their show is gonna be this year.

Mine is Steely Dan, by the way.

Reeling in the Years
Rikki Don't Lose That Number
Josie
Peg

I'm disappointed that we don't get to play Do It Again, but I don't think it would really work out well for a marching band.

Re: Band Camp

I was in band in high school, but I don't know the pains of marching because I was in Pit/Front Ensemble.

Re: Band Camp

This is the first time in 5 years I won't be in marching band. I enjoy performing but it's gonna be really nice to go to a football game at 3pm instead of having to wake up at 7 on a Saturday for final rehearsals and **** like that. I can't wait to watch a football game without playing the fight song every three seconds.

I might be on staff, but I graduated, so I don't have to be.

Re: Band Camp

Hehehe I started camp today actually. My band's doing a Rolling Stones show. It's pretty tight. We've only seen the music, and we don't start setting up the pictures for the show until Thursday or Monday of next week. But the music's pretty fun so far. And running basics is fun, shouting at the underclassmen is a lot of fun.

Re: Band Camp

Mine starts on the 4th.
I like the whole getting-my-biceps-back-from-that-mellophone thing.

Re: Band Camp

Kingdom Hearts (gay)
Habanera (not for football games)
Novus (yes)
Distorted (should've been the opener)

Individually these songs are fine, but I don't like how they're meshed this way for the show.

Good thing I transferred out before I left.

2 years ago at band camp two people passed out. One of them had a seizure. And yes, that's what you get for doing marching band in the summer.. on a black top... IN FLORIDA.

Re: Band Camp

Our Band Camp starts 2 weeks before school I think. Iirc it's 8am-4pm but we get free lunches

It's annoying having to wake up and realize that you have to go to school to be in the heat for that long, but when you do it's not so bad.
