Cullman High School Bearcat Marching Band Hoover 2008

[Whoomp12]

OMG we played the first song as part of our show last year! Summertime by George Gershwin, right? Only we played with less style.... :(

[tylerofdenmark]

@Whoomp12 Yes it is Gershwin's Summertime. What high school/state are you from? Just curious.

[Whoomp12]

@tylerofdenmark I'm from Leo Jr./Sr. High School in Leo, Indiana. Trust me though, there's no recordings of it on Youtube. But I can check to see if I have a midi file of our old show. What kind of show are you guys performing this year?

[tylerofdenmark]

@Whoomp12 Ah very cool. I have actually graduated, but the band will be doing a show based on "Cirque du Soleil: Quidam" for BOA. I am now a percussion instructor with the band as opposed to student, so it'll be interesting to see the show from the other side!

[Whoomp12]

@tylerofdenmark Are you serious?! I love Cirque! And what did you play in percussion?

[tylerofdenmark]

@Whoomp12 Cirque du Soleil is definitely good stuff! For marching band and winter drumline I played first marimba. For symphonic band, I usually played either mallets or timpani.

[Whoomp12]

@tylerofdenmark MALLETS FOR THE WIN!!!! Though vibraphone is better. :) Oh, I forgot to add that the weirdest part of all this is that both our names are Tyler.

[tylerofdenmark]

@Whoomp12 Hahaha I will admit that vibes are pretty awesome. I LOVE playing solos on vibes. I was fortunate enough to take private lessons from a member of the Cadets front ensemble for a long time. Anything 4-mallets is the stuff! Whoa! That's crazy that we share the same name. I wish you and your band all the best :D

[Whoomp12]

@tylerofdenmark And I wish your former band the best. (>")>

[kmandill8]

[adutton428]

[nathanbacon3]

LOL I GO TO SCHOOL HERE!

[TwirlGr8]

Good grief. Some of the best formations and one of the best sounding high school bands in the state. Great auxilliaries-cant say enough nice things about them!

[tylerofdenmark]

Thanks a lot :). We work hard, and we are always appreciative of nice comments and compliments. :) Thanks again.

[freaky1654]

very nice! It makes me laugh how just about every drumline looks all buff and all...but people don't consider the carriers under their uniforms. =P

[NewEraProductions70]

OMG! T-JONES?

Whats up?

lolololololololololol

[tylerofdenmark]

Hey there! So... who is this? LOL

[NewEraProductions70]

Ummmm. Only the best flag folder in the world. Duh! :P

[SunokoSnowChild]

wow... just wow.... ^_^ I am so happy to say that I am apart of this great and wonderfull band.

[Johlies]

This colorguard is very -very- good. Only thing I really didn't like was the spinning after the band had already ended playing. And some repetition. But you can tell they are very well trained. The baton twirlers are absolutely great, too. Something I've always been impressed by. Great band.

[tylerofdenmark]

Thanks a lot!

[ericaskea2]

Go front ensemble. I miss yall so much.

[tylerofdenmark]

We miss you too!!! I talked to your mom today during office aide 7th period and she said you were doing well. Glad to hear you're liking the Navy. Our show is epic, but we are so far behind because it has rained like every day here :(. The front ensemble parts are AMAZING now that David Waters is writing them lolol. Art and I were saying the other day that the front ensemble sucks without you Askea! Well, have fun and God bless!

[btsax2]

I am in the Vinemont Highschool marching band in Cullman county..... see u guys at the exibition... our show is coming along really well.

[tylerofdenmark]

I'm glad to hear your show is coming along. Our show ("Phantom") is also coming along very well, especially considering that it is the most difficult show we've ever done. (You can watch the 09 preview video, search it on YouTube.) Much luck this season, and we will see you September 19.
