Awesome show!! I saw this at Alamo Bowl and it was a great show, better than osu's. I played in the Queen show that followed :)

I march bari in our high school's marching band and I have to say 3:02 to 3:12 were the best 10 seconds of the show! Haha. We're doing this show next year and I can't wait!

My question: Who was first? UCLA or UofA?

[dreamyana91]

ahahaha, that's awesome! XD

MUSE !!!

[problematiquexxmuser]

I LOVE IT!! I can't believe they played the whole entire song Time is Running Out and then just randomly had Knights of Cydonia as the opener haha

It just bothers me that the color guard is always in the back or to the side and not really incorporated into the band :( I'm in color guard so that's something that really bothers me

and why are there cheerleaders in the marching band?

[venuzomega]

@problematiquexxmuser They are not cheerleaders. They are pom-pom girls - dance majors. Much like drill teams in high school bands, but due to the size of the stadium we perform in, they need pom-poms to have their moves seen effectively in a 60,000 seat stadium.

Well, if you're in color guard, then you understand this. You see how fast this band moves - would you try doing laterals or 1 1/2s at that speed near a tuba? Probably not - I'm sure you wouldn't want to pay to repair an instrument.

[problematiquexxmuser]

@venuzomega oh wow, I've never heard of having people just dance in the show, that's pretty snazzy. In my marching band we just have to guard do both.

and yeah I understand, in our show this year we're pretty close to the band and up in the front a lot. We even go through the band and are in them for awhile. It's a little nerve-racking having to do a toss right a few feet in front of the band haha One day I hit a flute too...woops
