Just depends on what I'm assigned. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

thePIXELelement Posted October 28, 2007 Report Share Posted October 28, 2007 We are a division 3 band playing in the middle of a bunch of division 1 bands Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GenericWit Posted October 28, 2007 Report Share Posted October 28, 2007 I'm the stupid-face who signs up for two/three shifts that are apart bc of lack of people working them. Â I'm working from 8-1230 then 400-830... So... I'll probably go home and sleep in between since we have to do our exhibition and whatnot.

eric Posted October 28, 2007 Report Share Posted October 28, 2007 hah. everyone is all like...yay allen band is so big. Â i hope you know, that if plano had 4 year schools instead of 2 year split 9-10 and 11-12 schools...just plano east, 1/3rd of plano, would EAT allen band. Â and allen has no chance of winning, btw. :] Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GenericWit Posted October 28, 2007 Report Share Posted October 28, 2007 hah. everyone is all like...yay allen band is so big. i hope you know, that if plano had 4 year schools instead of 2 year split 9-10 and 11-12 schools...just plano east, 1/3rd of plano, would EAT allen band.  and allen has no chance of winning, btw. :]  Yeah... but they're not, and... allen doesn't really march a lot of underclassmen. If you combine you guys and Clark, for example, I don't think you'd still have as many people in the band.  But size has nothign to do with winning.  It's gonna be a pretty cool contest... especially with most of the area B state people competing (and us exhibitioning so all of them playing) and then to add on 5A powerhouses like east... Geeshhh. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GenericWit Posted October 28, 2007 Report Share Posted October 28, 2007 Eric's really egotistical. I spent the better part of the last half hour telling him that he can't take the 4A state hype away from us right now lol... even if east is good.

borchnork Posted October 28, 2007 Author Report Share Posted October 28, 2007 yay for a reunion of the Area B bands!!! Â hahaha. Â It will be a good benchmark. And hopefully I'll be able to see Sherman's show on Saturday. I have yet to actually see it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
borchnork Posted October 28, 2007 Author Report Share Posted October 28, 2007 Oh my..You will love our show.. Â Its farely amazing.. Â I love marching in it.. Its neat and very.. hmmmm... fun. Â We have a texas lean and some horn pops and then of course we do poses and things during our show.. Â I only wish that we had a head move, but he wouldn't let us.. Â The only hard part of the show for me is the diamond cutters though.. Its difficult to stay behind Trevor the whole time. Â In fact if you would like I have a video I can load.. Â that would work out nicely. =] Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ern3sto09 Posted October 28, 2007 Report Share Posted October 28, 2007 Lydia, don't use people's real names on here without their permission. Â And what she means is that most people are impressed by our show. The ballad, Lux Aurumque, is composed by Eric Whitacre, who is the next great composer of our time. It sounds very beautiful. And the drill is very demanding. Which is why we run half a mile every practice, to be in shape for the show. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
borchnork Posted October 28, 2007 Author Report Share Posted October 28, 2007 . The ballad, Lux Aurumque, is composed by Eric Whitacre, who is the next great composer of our time. It sounds very beautiful. Â Â Yah, I knew about that. While we were warming up yesterday for finals, you were performing, and I heard Lux and I started mentally humming along. That's the song on my myspace. =] Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ern3sto09 Posted October 28, 2007 Report Share Posted October 28, 2007 borchnork, whats the music for Centennial's show this year? I sadly didn't get to see yall preform yesterday, because I was waiting in line to by some Chic-Fillet Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
borchnork Posted October 28, 2007 Author Report Share Posted October 28, 2007 Our show is called "BELLS!" Â It's just one song, broken up into 4 mvmts. Â It hits the musical highlights of Michael Daugherty's "Bells for Stokowski." Â Â and thank for the compliment. That was our first contest to perform mvmt. 4 at, so I think all of us were nervous about going over the time limit, because (performed at minimum tempos) our show is like 7 minutes and 30 seconds, and we always slow down or something weird happens.

Ern3sto09 Posted October 28, 2007 Report Share Posted October 28, 2007 Well, I can't wait to see it on Saturday. I am also looking forward to seeing Aledo and The Colony as well. How amazing would it be if all 4 of our bands made finals at State? That would show how insane Area B is. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
