This is a young band, and this is a very complicated show. the only time we actually halt completely is twice in the first movement for more than about 16 counts...i think. also marching in 11/8, the drumline switching drums, having a giant, exposed, 17-person 32-second note split in the 2nd movement, only one drum major (:/) the fact we can pull it off is impressive enough if you ask me.
It's so freakishly weird to see Naperville North do a show that doesn't feel like it's chock-full of fun. In fact, it's as if they aren't even pomegranates anymore...*sighs* This is one of those times where I miss either seeing 'Extra Extra!', or simply being a part of 'The Sounds of Silent...s'. Great band, great show (pit could use some work, speaking as a former member), but just...not the same anymore.
@FrenchHornFanatic94 Guess I'm just picky. It's a weird thing for me, but I need to see enough comedy in a Naperville North show to really just keep laughing over and over. I'll give you one thing- the cavemen and the statue were hilarious.
@Wagnerlover777 haha thanks :) and yeah this is lake park too, we've added so much since then. hopefully you like the newer version once its on youtube!
@FrenchHornFanatic94 Yay! I'll be glad to see more stuff- the marching looks rather...INCREDIBLY hard rhythmically, and I'm sure you guys will make all the effort in the world to give the best show you can (not that you don't already, but still). I'll be seeing you live at ISU!
Last? But I thought this as really cool! Nice music too.
I hope you guys do better next time! Wish I could have seen it in person. Though... I was warming up, so maybe not... but again, this looks really cool! Well done!
@BlueShadow194 It wasn't a surprise for us. Your show was INCREDIBLE. I loved the theme.
And it turns out we'll be seeing you at contest on Saturday. I think our band director said we're eating pizza with you guys. :3 See you then, I guess.

Hi! I was in Prospect's marching band show.
Last? But I thought this as really cool! Nice music too.
I hope you guys do better next time! Wish I could have seen it in person. Though... I was warming up, so maybe not... but again, this looks really cool! Well done!

@BlueShadow194 Wow. You were in Prospect. That's awesome. I was in Plainfield North. 9th place, ouch.

@BionicWolf4 To be honest, I was a little surprised that we won. But still a freshman so everything is a surprise to us... sort of...

If you're legitimately asking a question, then yes, this is marching band.
If you're being a snark and being a NNHS hater, then go do something better with your time.
