Please forgive an older mans thoughts, what I mean is this. I was lucky enought to be a part of the East Rome High Band from 1963 thru 67. I played trumpet the first year then switched to bass. Enough about that, We started a great tradition that is still around. Thank you all for that. With best wishes, Steve Brown
yes, its amazing that their director would allow them on the field to perform so horribly. this is a train wreck from start to finish. brass overblows, percussion cant play even simple notation together, guard performs simple moves, however, not in unison. god, what a mess.
Jess your an asshole. This is NOT DCI, it's high school marching band. I marched corp for sevreal years and know good marching and playing when I see it. This is a great H.S Marching Band. And yes there are some things that went wrong in this show, but what High School show doesnt?! Again these are kids, age ranging 14-18.....
HOLY SHIT?! amateur. I have a degree in Trumpet Performance, as well as an education degree. Marched with Scouts, need I go on? Your're the one here bashing High Schoolers! Get a life dude!
trumpet performance degree...wow, that must be like basket weaving degree...and the "oh yeh, i have another degree im pulling out of my ass" to convince me you are an expert. WRONG again, afterall you marched with scouts; a second rate, third tier D-list corps...not that impressive. nice going..by the way? you couldnt fathom nor afford my life, pal. What i net in a quarter I seriously doubt you even gross annually. lose weight, get an education, get a job...move out of mommy's basement, son.
IS it about money or being happy? Obviously money doesnt bring you happiness. So far all you've managed is to talk out your ass... This all started when YOU bashed high school students. Wow impressive..
stop your whining. stand up and be a man you douche. no wonder you are not setting the world on fire and no one knows you exist. you underachieving loser.
Blah blah blah. So far all I've hard was nothing. I'm done. You know nothing about music, and marching get life. Stop bashing High School student who are atleast going out there and trying. I believe you started all this, when you did this. Get a life. Move on.
again, you couldnt fathom nor afford my life you douchebag little wimpy whiner still living with mommy. ive forgotten more about music than you will ever know, kid. and you wonder why you cant get a date or employement? you dont have what it takes to make it in the world...have fun living with your mom, douche.
music is what you are suppose to love, not try to make a a huge amount of money in. any DCI band is a good band to be in. and high-school bands are not really that bad, Rome is one of the best bands in their region.
The sax thing should've been a trumpet trio, u couldnt hear the saxes for crap in their duet until they did thier altissimo. Coulda rocked out better at the end, nice screaming leads, great snare solo
One of the better high school bands I have seen. Had the pleasure of seeing them in person at the Peach State competition the year they played the 2000 Cadets show...that rocked!
Great for a high school band. sounds more like a college (actually mean that!). Watching this starts to bring back the memories I have of being in my old high school band. If you are still in high school, enjoy every second of it. You will miss it in the future.
You guys are pretty awesome. I was a little dissapointed though. In Malaguena, I'm thinking "OMGOMGOMG HERE COMES THE TRUMPET TRIO" and then I was saxaphones. =\
Nice....much cleaner and the drumline...solid...PLEASE DON'T TRY OUT FOR THE SPIRIT OF JSU!!! DO CAROLINA CROWN OR PHANTOM OF CAVALIERS OR SOMETHING THAT WILL GET YOU TO FINALS!!!
pepperell does not even come across rome... Rome is like greater than great... and then theres pepperell

ECris000001 4 years ago
ha. great argument, jess.
it made perfect sense. all the talk of money and living in a basement? perfect counter attack for the idea that you didn't like the performance.
oh and the comparison between a trumpet and basket weaving degree? pure genius. haha. i mean they're totally the same thing, right?
i would say to get a life, but you obviously have one - bashing people to raise your own self esteem.
hope its an enjoyable one!
thanks for watching :)

I still don't understand how a high school could have a band so good. Though that may be because my high school band sucks...
