Actually, we're getting ready to perform another show of this sort for the upcoming Colorado Game and maybe the OU game as well, except this year it will be just a Video Game show, so no cartoons/superheroes. We haven't started learning the forms yet, but we have been rehearsing the music and will begin the marching on Thursday.

Good to hear. I was on the drumline when this video was filmed and we got a great response from the student sections. I'm sure the same will happen with the show y'all are planning. I'll be at the home games and the OU game, so I'll be looking forward to it.

this is one of the best bands with one of the worst color guards, which is a shame because guards are supposed to enhance the show not distract you from it...

[jmricks]

yeah, I was on the drumline for 4 years and I totally agree with you. We had a guard, but also "big flags." The actual guard was alright, but the big flags sucked. It was basically made up of people that didn't play their instruments good enough to make the band, but they beat out some people during the marching tryouts.

whats the name of the drum cadence as they were marching on to the field

[jmricks]

It's called Tenor Intro, but very similar to a common cadence called Cheerleader. You can get Texas Drumline info and music at TexasDrums . com

Musically better than Cal's, but I liked Cal's marching charts WAY better.
