I would say that 99% of drum majors mark time while conducting. Your feet are supposed to mimic the feet of the ensemble. When they are double time you mark time double time, when they halt you halt. It's drum major 101.

We played this my freshman year (2008) but we renamed it Khan.

No offense but the drum major marking time looks ridiculous

You all did that show after I graduated. It turned out pretty good. Nice job to the whole group this year.

Actually rolling backwards is much more efficient than up on the toes. It keeps the look of the ensemble the same from forward march. At a certain step size it turns into an up on the toes style anyway. Up on the toes is horrible for slow tempos, and most bands look like a deer trying to stand for the first time doing it. I guess both have their pros and cons.

I played this song for marching band, it was amazing.

[bluegeist07]

I was there, it was the loudest college band I have ever heard live. I loved it! Great show!

[hockeypaul92]
