josephbandfan Posted May 24, 2018 Report Share Posted May 24, 2018 "Life on mars" by David Bowie and "Imagine" by John Lennon. Please let me know if any shows have done it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dog885 Posted May 25, 2018 Report Share Posted May 25, 2018 Paint it Black was very popular this past year. Adair County and Bellevue West off the top of my head Yeah, I remember Fort Zumwalt North at St Louis, and we heard it about 4 times while live streaming Atlanta. What I would like to see are the second and third movements of Pines of Rome. The first and fourth are always done, but the third would make a lovely ballad. Also John Mackey's Frozen Cathedral would make a nice ballad/closer, Mackey's High Wire and Whitacre's Equus would also be cool in a/more shows. Earlier this year the directors asked for music suggestions, so I made a list and asked as many people as I could for what songs they would like in our show for the next year, the list went to over a page.

thebashful15 Posted May 25, 2018 Report Share Posted May 25, 2018 Hello Zepp from the Saw. I've seen videos on youtube of older versions of this, but I'd like to see a modern rendition. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AvonDad Posted May 26, 2018 Report Share Posted May 26, 2018 Believer by imagine dragons Avon's winter drum line used Believer in parts of their show this year. They used Radioactive - Imagine Dragons in their 2014 drum line show. Both could perform well in marching band. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MadisonBandMan1 Posted May 26, 2018 Report Share Posted May 26, 2018 Avon's winter drum line used Believer in parts of their show this year. Yeah but the impact of it on the field in a marching show, if done correctly, would be amazing. Two bands I could see pulling it off the right way are vandy and Keller. Possibly Avon. josephbandfan 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post Rubisco Posted May 27, 2018 Popular Post Report Share Posted May 27, 2018 Several months ago, I suggested Abel Korzeniowski's music. I was watching the opening scene to Nocturnal Animals and joked that the naked "flag feature" would inspire Wes Cartwright. The music was very dramatic and a little bit "twinkly", which generally translates well to the field. I'm eager to see how Korzeniowski's Romeo and Juliet music works out for Leander this year. Lots of other ballad-like pieces to choose from, btw! Speaking of movies, I liked the two Sufjan Stevens songs from Call Me By Your Name last year, but a person arranging them for marching band would probably have to write in a real climax. Visions of Gideon is probably the more field-ready of the two. I know exactly how I'd portray it visually. Gets me all excited, even though I'm no longer really part of the activity.

SpartanBandAlum Posted May 27, 2018 Report Share Posted May 27, 2018 I kind of want to see a Little Mermaid show, particularly ‘If Only’ from the Broadway adaptation Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PSHSMom Posted May 31, 2018 Report Share Posted May 31, 2018 I may get laughed at for this, but I would love to see a band put out an "Outlander" show. Bear McCreary put out somebeautiful music for the show that I could see translated on the field. Some version of "Veil in Time" (many of the songs have the same type of theme in them) would work great for Color Guard with all the movement. I'm sure they could find more upbeat Scottish music to fill out the battle scenes . Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

J-Mike16 Posted June 5, 2018 Report Share Posted June 5, 2018 My band is playing Sound of Silence for one of our songs this upcoming year. But its the one by Simon and Garfunkel. The Disturbed version is better, wish my band could play it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

abtwitch Posted June 6, 2018 Report Share Posted June 6, 2018 This Cruel Moon/Wine-Dark Sea Mvt II by John Mackey I think would make an absolutely stunning ballad, it's the neglected movement of Wine-Dark Sea. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PSHSMom Posted June 6, 2018 Report Share Posted June 6, 2018 So my son's band is playing music from Pans Labyrinth which I was not familiar with. Quite a beautiful but haunting music. Has anyone heard that in a show before? He is currently in one of the Non-Varsity bands in Plano (a grade 9/10 school). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
