For those Band people out there...

If any of you are in a school band, and esspeically if you're in percussion, listen to this and see what you think:

It's this years Marching Percussion song. Plz, send feedback! And try to imagine about 15 people carrying super heavy instruments playing this while marching sideways and doing some drill work. :D I play the Marimba part (no this is NOT a recording of US...its MIDI i think)

I've been in the school marching band for 2 years (I play the alto sax) and I am right behind the percussion section...

From what I hear, the band that played this has a great sense of time, could use a bit more snare. Sounds like there's only 2 of them playing(we have 5 at all times in my band... but it's gigantic).

Have you heard Marian Catholic Highschool? lolZ...pwnage in band...I hate practicing 24/7 tho...

Went to Hawaii last year for a band competition O_o.  Yeah, marching while playing complicated music takes practice, its pretty hard at first, but it gets easier the more you practice.

I go to Bloom Highschool now, Marian wasn't my thing. Bloom owns at sports...pwns...
