Irondale Winter Drumline 2008

[ryan9312]

this isnt a sport because you can be good at a sport by natural ability, this is just months of hard work

[truefarce]

not only hours of hard work, days of hard work, if you add up all the hours of hard labor of practice during rehearsals and out of rehearsals, it definitely adds up more then any high school sport would id almost guarantee.

why at 0:00

[SkyeBirdie1]

OMG that tenor solo just blew our entire show out of the water.

[Wingnut172N]

Anyone who doesnt call this a sport has not experienced the phisical and mental strian of not only doing this but learning all of this and going though hours and hours of hard phisical and mental work. IT IS A SPORT!!!!!!!!!

Btw: Minnesota brass loved your show a little too much... lol

[heatherdb]

Very cool show :)

[KanCer08]

alil too much dancing for me personaly, but all in all a good show

[SnareKidJoel]

That's what indoor drumline is.

[KanCer08]

your telling me that indoor drumline is dancing?

[SnareKidJoel]

I'm telling you that WGI-style indoor drumline shows do involve costumes and dancing and sometimes narration. That's what is necessary to be competitive these days because just going there and playing a bunch of notes and running around the floor like a PASIC-style show just doesn't usually cut it for the judges in WGI. They want a theme to be present in your show and they want a lot of general effect.

[bitemymiss]

@KanCer08 Indoor drumline is showmanship and performance. Is there anything wrong with that?

[KanCer08]

@bitemymiss no, is there anything wrong with having an opinion about a show?

[bitemymiss]

@KanCer08 Not if you know something about the circuit and how things work.

[KanCer08]

@bitemymiss oh ok i apologize than, i was unaware.

i guess your right, i know absolutely nothing about wgi, or mpa and how it works. and i definatly was not aware how things were scored or what the judges are looking for in a show. i mean i only competed against these guys in the same circuit and class for 6 years. I apologize for my ignorance.

btw i never said it was a bad show, or that i didnt like it for that matter.

[bitemymiss]

@KanCer08 Then why complain about "dancing?" It is showmanship and that is what the sport is about; putting on a show.

[emonemo122]

yeah, rocori loves your line. =D

you guys are AMAZING. (tenors especially)=]

[IrondaleQuadz2010]
