Last night's marching band competition went horribly. After working incredibly hard Thursday and fixing nearly everything that never worked, we failed. Horribly. We dropped 3 points in ratings! 3!! It's practically like how it was with our first competition! This may be the first year in 11 that AHS doesn't have an honor band. (Honor Band: Superior rating in Marching and Symphonic Band) The fact that we're comprised of mostly rookies shouldn't matter either. They're not rookies any more. They know how to march correctly, they know their drill, they've been at this long enough. Admittedly, it's most their attitude that is bringing us down. It's like they don't care. They think it's geeky or dumb or it's just Marching Band, it doesn't matter! It's not even a proper sport!

If it's not this year, it's next year and the years after. We're going to have a marching band of hotheaded, egotistical, oh-I'm-not-a-rookie-anymore sophmores. They were already practically like that this year! We had rookies correcting veterans. You're all still fucking n00bs!! You can't do that. Ever. Yes, I just said they're not rookies anymore, but they are far away from knowing enough to correct someone who's been at it for years. Some can't even read their drill book.

Admittedly, it was our first cold competition and the n00bs may have been frozen in their shoes because they didn't dress warmly. But that can't account for messing up basic things. Hell, veterans mess up, I mess up. Everyone does it sometimes, but all these little mistakes and all these people forgeting what we added and fixed it just...ruined everything. Why did everyone choose last night to fuck up? I don't know. Tons of people didn't. I'd say a third of the band did well. But you can't have a third marching strongly with the rest sort of bumbling a long. It doesn't look good. The thing about marching band is that one person can make a perfect form look wrong. In one case, it could be me, when I'm the top of a hollow triangle of piccolos, if I'm not exactly there, it looks dumb even if everyone made it to where they're supposed to be. I realized that and haven't missed that part since.

Did I mention states are next week? It's the final competition that decides if we're honor band material or not. Boy, that's going to be fun.

Well okay see that's why I didn't join marching band in the first place. If I did I really wouldn't be commited to it. As for the new rookies I see what you mean during class. Ranting-Complain here and see who actually cares ;] - Page 2 691443

They're not just freshmen though. But the majority of them are. The thing is, section leaders make them do push ups and Elgin yells at them but it doesn't seem to do anything.

Hopefully the epic fail of that competition will motivate them to do better before all the veterans beat them up for ruining our legacy.

I don't know. Even though I'm above them, I'm not allowed to do anything to them...yet. Next year I will. Next year will be fun.

I'm going to be a section leader next year. It goes like:

Elgin
Section Instructers (Like Mr. Niehoff, Mr. Perez, Marching Alumni)
Drum Majors
Section Leaders
Upperclassmen (Juniors and Seniors who have marched since freshman year)
2nd Year Marchers <-I'm right here right now
Rookies

So yes, that means Abby and I will be in charge of making sure our section (all the piccs) march properly and get all their music checked off. It means we can make them do whatever we want basically.

Wait how are you going to be a section leader? You are going to march with the french horn? (I don't know the name for the marching one...)

No, I'm still marching picc. I don't understand why everyone thinks I'd have to switch instruments in marching band too. Anyway, I'm going to be a section leader because me and Abby have seniority over everyone else.

It's not that they can't play, that doesn't matter. It's that they can't listen to tune, they can't count, they can't MARCH.

And orchestra is gay anyway.
