Our band is better. Were playing this song in band and we got it down great! We are gonna play this song for a contest with 2 other songs. Im not saying your band isnt good. Its just kinda fast and loud at the slow and soft parts.

@MrBagelmon You fail to realize things such as tempo (fast and slow) and dynamics (loud and soft) are up to the band director, so don't criticize the band, talk to the director, it is up to him how he interprets the music. And stop going around bragging about how great your band is, band people are supposed to be the cool people, that's talk I would expect from a football player, not a musician

@chaniejbernard

I know and I might be mistaking. The room your playing in looks so big the music might echo to make the sound louder, and once I posted that comment I was actually thinking, wait, if the band director has the song sound like that, then thats fine.

[chaniejbernard]

@MrBagelmon It is very big for a band to be playing in and yes, the Director wanted it to sound like that.

@chaniejbernard

Ok. Its just Im used to playing it a bit softer in the beginning so it got me to think it really had to be soft.

[chaniejbernard]

@MrBagelmon Our director was always about a 'full' sound. He said if a band has a full sound it should be shown off which is what we did at the beginning, he also doesnt like to play soft, he finds it sounds too wimpy, he likes 'full', so we play full.
