OMG this video made me tear up! Being a band member at AHS was one of the best times of my life. Watching this brought it all back, from Wednesday night rehearsals to the wood blocks at band camp, a true reflection of the tradition if excellence. Well done!
-Mark Doering Former AHS Trumpet Section Leader and proud Apache Alum
even though I did not go to Arcadia, I always spoke fondly of the band. Although I've never had any connection to the band, this video is great, and very inspiring. I've watched it 4 times already and each time, I get chills. great work. =]
If you were once a member of the Apache Marching Band, then we'd like to invite you to be part of this film! If you're interested in being interviewed for the "Tradition of Excellence" please e-mail us at cinephonicmedia@gmail.com.
Graduated class of '98 (94-97 marching season). I didnt care about much aside from band. I am still proud to have been a member. I instructed marching bands in Southern Nevada and even if they had never seen AHS they knew about the Apache Marching Band. The color gaurds stood in awe of Arcadia's Color gaurd. It made me proud every time. I can't wait to see the whole thing.
JC, great to meet you last week at Mt. Carmel. This is looking great. Are you doing a video tribute to Tom Landes this school year, or will that be part of the documentary?
Wow... I can't even begin to tell you guys how much I love you and this band. We are more than a group of individuals, friends or even family. We are Arcadia High School Apace Marching Band. And no one else can say the same.
My time at AHS definitely prepared me for more seriously challenging marching when I got to UCLA, but I never lost that sense of pride when I snapped my trombone up, Apache-style.. It's a shame the ranks weren't straighter in most of those shots - we would have railed on that when I was in hs.
Class of '96... Center Snare...I shed tears when I watched this. The Tradition of Excellence began with Ron Hoar, has continued with Tom Landes, and will continue with whoever steps in after Landes' retirement (I assume Kevin Sherrill). Make this a season to remember for eternity. Snap that hand into the small of your back... PA-CHE!
Side Note for Percussionists: If you guys are still doing the pre-show chant about Fear, Pain, and Defeat... It started in '95!!!
1:13 that day it had rained almost the whole day, and then the rain let up for us to practice. It was freezing, but it made the sky look freakin amazing as a backdrop!
great video, nice filmography & sound bed, narration/speech is superb, nice cinestyle too. can't wait to see the rest of your film and to see you out there on the Rose Colored Line
The Arcadia HS Apache Marching Band has been a successful parade band for many years and they are a fine example of what it takes to be one of the best. No other parade band in CA has had the successful longevity as does this fine organization, making them one of the most watched and recognized parade bands out there. I’m glad they're going to the 2012 Rose Parade and represent our state very well. Congratulations on ALL your accomplishments and achievements throughout the years.
can't wait to watch this...this sure brought back the memories...it's great to see that Arcadia is still carrying on its tradition of excellence...Class of 2000, APACHES!
every single time I watch this, I just get chills down my spine. Its amazing. I cannot wait for the full documentary. THANKS JC <3
