[Kratos9945]

[xoxomunchixoxo]

[redxandkemicalx]

[KnottPatriot]

How do you high Shool kids not know of Morehead State?

[pyrochinchillaX]

Blue and Gold is an event at Morehead State University in Kentucky held yearly. Our band goes almost every year =P

[TheMidnightskies]

they r just the tiniest bit off, but amazing anyway... its hard to play while dancing and walking..woooo!

[russellband]

i was at that contest in 7th grade. it seemed amazing when they performed it, but looking back, and watching the video, it really wasn't that good.

[lildrummerboy007]

pit and drumline and winds are off big time, each is taking their own tempo....i liek the show idea, but it would look and sound cooler if it was put together better...

[AMTMCREW]

omg i wish our band could have that theme...i love it!!!

[drummergirl1015]

blue and gold is morehead state's marching band competition.

this is MOREHEAD STATE. not michigan or murray. duh.

[CARDBOARDx3]

U of M is blue and gold, not MSU.

[shadyvanguy]

I saw this show Saturday. It's even better live! I know a bunch of people from the band too, and they're just awesome. Watching the drumline warm up was GREAT. They're SO good and together. It's amazing. If you ever get a chance to watch MSU live, do it! It's SOOOO much better up close and personal. Plus you get to see the seusophone's dance! ;)

[hungarianszilard]

Is it hard to play the drum in the drumline? do u have to memoriza alot?

[imunimaginative]

If by a lot, you mean the whole show, then yes.

[hungarianszilard]

then im not goin in it

[drumonkeejake]

yeah, we have alot of notes to learn, but it's all worth it when we put the music together as a whole.

[hungarianszilard]

how many drum types are there?

[drumonkeejake]

this year, we had 9 snares, 4 tenors, 5 bass drums, and 9 cymbals.

[hungarianszilard]

wats the easiest to play besides the symbals and bass?

[drumonkeejake]

all sections of the drumline at MSU are very demanding, so there really is no easy part to play. we all have some pretty hard parts to learn, so there is a large amount of work involved.

[hungarianszilard]

Im thinkin of playin in the drumline next yaer but im also thinkin of playin in either trumpet or sax. Tommorow I was thinkin off getting a snare to get my beatness on track becuase i always mess up on beats in the piano (butim playing Bartok and other really hard junk)

[hungarianszilard]

Wat are the drums called that are 6 putt together?

[drumonkeejake]

tenors

[hungarianszilard]

do u have an Im cause I would like to ask some q's U seem pretty educated about this stuff

[drumonkeejake]

i play cymbals for msu, and i haven't got too much knowledge about the tenors. but there are plenty of videos on youtube about tenors.

[hungarianszilard]

U know anyone who is an expert on those that has a hotmail?

[drumonkeejake]

not really, no. but i can send you to a web site that may have some information you might need. i'll leave a message for you on your youtube page.

[hungarianszilard]

ok thanks

[annecflute]

YEAH!!!!
