(we have ALOT of formers percussion directors) Hah, that position at our school is like the "defense against the dark arts" position. Seriously, they never last a year. Its kind of creepy. Hm, yes, and usually at the beggining of the season after rehearsel, the leaders perform the music of the show memorized, like a passoff. The band basically doesnt start passoffs until the leaders can pass off the music as a group. This is the first year at langham (that I've seen) where we did not do this. We we're too behind getting music/drill that we didnt have that kind of time to invest in that at the end of rehearsels. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

oDesign Posted October 16, 2007 Report Share Posted October 16, 2007 I'm guessing it's Mr. Estes That was my initial though, but he's living in Chicago now from what I've heard. Which is sad. We all liked him alot. He danced when he conducted. : D ..but If i had to guess, Id say its either Mr. Lebreck or Mr. Sommers who is the new percussion director being reffered too.

I heard during marching season McAdow took Estes in a room and just started yelling at him and it was extremely really loud. If I was Mr. Estes I probably would've just quit on the spot if something like that happened to me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
