LKendrick Posted December 4, 2015 Report Share Posted December 4, 2015 So this is a question just out of interest. Was just wondering who writes the drill for what bands in Texas? So if you know a schools drill writer, feel free to share it here. Thanks in advance! Mainly looking for the big dogs. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

justabandkid94 Posted December 5, 2015 Report Share Posted December 5, 2015 The Woodlands: Jon Vanderkolff, mastermind behind Bluecoat's Tilt, Kinetic Noise; Star of Indiana '93. Believe TW has used him since 2006 Hebron: Kevin Nix since 2012 Vandegrift: Jeff Sacktig since 2012 LD Bell: Wes Cartwright returned this year who writes for Marcus?

Amusicman Posted December 6, 2015 Report Share Posted December 6, 2015 LD Bell: Wes Cartwright returned this year who writes for Marcus? Wes Cartwright has never written the drill for LD Bell. From 2003-2011 he was the color guard director and overall designer. 2005-2006 the drill was written by Myron Rosander, 2007-2008 by Bryan Youngblood, 2009-2012 by Leon May. Since 2013 their drill has been written by Jaime Holly. I believe Marcus drill is written by Amanda Drinkwater, their head director. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So I guess that raises a question for me, who writes drill for Broken Arrow? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
aaron067 Posted December 6, 2015 Report Share Posted December 6, 2015 ^ ^ ^ From what I've been told Myron Rosander only designed the drill concepts for Bell, while Bryan Youngblood actually made the concepts work in practical application. That's second-hand information, so it could be wrong. Bryan also wrote their drill at least as early as 2004...probably sooner, but I can't say that with any certainty. Cedar Park and Waxahachie both used Jamey Thompson for the first time this year. Not sure why Cedar Park moved away from Leon, but Waxahachie was doing everything in-house prior to this year and is in the process of developing a design philosophy and team to help them push into the finalist circle for BOA while still continuing to do well at UIL-based events.

aaron067 Posted December 6, 2015 Report Share Posted December 6, 2015 Is there no edit function for posts anymore? Or has it just been that long since I last made a post at TxBands? Anyway, to answer about Broken Arrow... In the past the head director wrote the drill, but Leon May wrote for them this year. I don't know when that started.

Amusicman Posted December 6, 2015 Report Share Posted December 6, 2015 For LD Bell I believe Youngblood wrote the drill from 98-04 then again in 07-08. 2005-2006 was just Myron Rosander. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
principalagent Posted December 6, 2015 Report Share Posted December 6, 2015 I'm pretty sure Bowie used Leon May last year after parting with Jeremy Hunt. Did they continue to use him? I believe Wakeland uses Sacktig too. I can't remember if Alan Spaeth writes for Flower Mound or just designs. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
