I actually got to meat Clarence Barber. He was cool and wore a grump tie. We performed his peice called Dragon Riders, which was farelly easy. He conducted us in the song at our concert. Turns out, our director was actually friends with him in high school and still knew him really well. :D

@tsunade9526 Oh yeah I know it's crazy xDD

[tsunade9526]

@kittykatz503 Hahahahaha xD Yeah :P It really is crazy. But, the fact that they can do it, is amazing

[kittykatz503]

@tsunade9526 Oh heck...nevermind haha I was thinking about a different band and a different song xD Ahh yeah, lol I bet so xD It's crazy what some bands will play. Especially Drum Corps xD

[tsunade9526]

@kittykatz503 How'd you watch us at Semi's? We where even there at the Dome xD Did they put the show up? Haha, I've grown to like it xD It wasn't that hard, but, to get down to the point kinda was xD We looked freakin' retarted the first time marching it xDD

[kittykatz503]

@tsunade9526 Ohh!!! I remember watching yall in Semi-Finals! I was freaking out because Vesuvius is one of my favorite songs haha. Wow 9/8...that's tough stuff...dang it's hard to play in concert literature.

[tsunade9526]

@kittykatz503 Oh dang, sounds cool! Our show was about the music of Frank Tichelli. It was Vesuvius, and American Elogy I believe. Vesuvius was an awesome piece, and it was interesting to march in 9/8

[kittykatz503]

@tsunade9526 Oh yeah I know, it was extremely intense.. Our show was basically about "war" I suppose, it was kind of confusing. We played the theme to Band of Brothers, Gettysburg, and 1812 Overture. What was your show?

[tsunade9526]

@kittykatz503 Damn, its amazing how close they came these year :/ Middleburg got kicked out by us! xD What was your show about?

[kittykatz503]

@tsunade9526 Ahhh yeah, this year we were 6th out of 11 5a bands in Semi-Finals. They only took the top 5 bands. We made 6th by .33 of a point. Yeah sucked real bad. But hopefully we are coming back next year :]
