I've been in it for two years, next season being three.
I play piccolo, and next year's theme will blow everyone out of the water...
The first two kind of sucked though: Phantom of the Opera and Grease,

New director--->Better music.

I'm starting marching band next year (oh no!) and I'm dreading it and looking forward to it at the same time. I'm not a very active or athletic person, I sit inside and write stories, read comic books, play bass, cello, guitar, piano, or something, listen to MCR, and sleep. Now I'm going to have to march around in the sun every day DX. The marching band goes to florida and ohio and a few other places....they even went to china one year so that's really the only reason I'm going to join. Is it as bad as they make it sound?

Oh yeah. Marching band ftw.
Actually, I pretty much hate it, but the people are fantastic.
Something about marching around a football field in frigid/extremely hot weather brings kids together. :]
We started August 4th and we're almost done setting our show. The show is called the music of Danny Elfman, which includes Edward Scissorhands (ballad), Beetlejuice, Augustus Gloop, Pee Wee's playhouse theme and Batman. So that's pretty badass.

Ahhh, that seems so cool. Our theme is "Stained Glass," which isn't that bad, but last years show was more fun. Haha.
