@zac3055

She isn't in color guard; it's not required.

[areyoucursed]

you're controlling the mace, the mace isn't controlling you.

Otherwise, fantastic routine.

[ekotar1]

umm.. is it me being a northern cali DM or would it look better with your arms firmly at your side??

[areyoucursed]

also from norcal, and I agree.

[woahhalex22]

Is it just be being a high school drum major, thinking that Northern California's drum majors kind of..well...suck?

Nope.That's everyone except people who go to Northern California.....

[ekotar1]

you have the amazing ability to ignore Jason paguio, world champion Scottish Drum Major. Never have i seen such skill. you many years did you spend being ignorant before you madtered the skill?

[woahhalex22]

I never said that I ignored his talent or what he has done. You're not him. So, I'm not really "ignorant".

Jason Paguio was infact, amazing.But. You're not Jason Paguio.

[ekotar1]

@woahhalex22 yes, but you stated a thesis. all you need is one counterexample to disprove a thesis. not only that, but you have no idea how good i am. and being a drum major, shouldn't you have more respect and dignity than to blatantly insult your fellow drum major, without having any advice? or are you simply a figurehead who spins and waves a stick? does the fancy uniform make you feel big and important?

[woahhalex22]

Hmm.Well....."Keeping your hands at your sides" is much of an insult...and you kind of have a big head for just being an average drum major.There's videos.I mean- for pete's sake- we are on youtube.I just have to search for Northern California Band 2009....I don't even do mace style- I do traditional and core. And no.The whistle does :]

Now, @areyoucursed gave some nice constructive criticism.You however-didn't need to say anything.Emma is a great drum major :]....she makes mistakes.Shes a human

[clarinetissst757]

anyway, aside from the song...

i think you did really well!

that unfolding the arms thing was pretty intense!

great job!

=D

[annihil8ted]

hmm your body seems to move quite a bit.

[jonhut111]

This is mine too. they changed it up they have "Tiger Rag" then they play the same song as this but a different and i believe a better version. they being the band.

ILL-INI

[crazyvoyager]

don't you think that is a quite right-handed routine? There are almost nothing done with the left hand

[magicwhiteangel]

This is my schools fight song as well.

Were loyal to you Bowie High...

[hjmcgill]

EVERYONE has copied this song. Illinois is one of the foremost varsity-type universities ever. (I went there). The first Homecoming game anywhere was at Illinois. This school has been at the forefront of college culture for a long, long time.

[xXxloserforlifexXx]

this is my schools loyalty song too. (jesup) but we sped it up a bit. and its we're loyal to you jesup high. lol not illinois. :p

[knw1167]

My Jr high. and High school copied this song, and we play it at every football game.

[demiveeemon3945]

Our school also copied this song. But we sped it up a bit.

[AjaniAndGreg]

My high school copied this for our fight song.

[ctmajka]

So did my current school (Elgin High School) and my old one (Somonauk High School)

[ArtyMac]

Nice work with the music

[isartam]

Oskee-wow-wow!
