  • Why are some of the members of the band wearing marching uniforms? Just wondering about the logistics behind the performance.

  • @eafreniere Um... some students weren't able to find a tux I suppose. I asked my directors what I should wear and they were like .. well your band uniform... I gave them the WHAT THE FUCK face and they let me use our Tux's.

  • To the idiots responding about attire; this is the beauty of Texas Bands, a plethera of different community and administrative viewpoints. These are the best young musicians in the nation, bar none.

  • @eafreniere I know here in Oklahoma, many people in the all-state band wear their uniforms not because they can't afford tuxes, but because they want to stand out as a member of a specific high school. Even some of the wealthier schools that have more than a dozen kids in the all-state band require their kids to wear marching uniforms there.

  • omygoddd! my band director just passed out this lovely piece of music today ah! its hard! need to work on that clarinet solo:)

  • Wow, what a sound!!!

  • @Cameroon993 i know i was amazed at the cleaness of this song.

  • What an incredibly clean performance of Festive!

  • The low brass part at 3:20 and 5:08 are my favorites :p And the Bells part at 5:08 too.

  • @eafreniere Some schools don't have tux's to loan out to students. Sometimes, and a lot of military marching high school bands, all they have are their marching uniforms. So that's what they wear year round, marching and concert.

  • @eafreniere Actually, Some schools are so big that logistically their concert uniforms are also their marching uniforms due to money and/or other reasons such as wanting to represent school colors and stuff. I know of many schools here in Texas that do that.

  • dang this is fast and almost seems perfect :D
