As a small portion of you know, I have joind up with the P-CEP marching band! It is really fun, too! I know that some of you are/were in marching band, also. Last weekend I had the 'Liberty fest' parade, which was more like a commercial driving down the street, and it was funny, because the road we marched on was under-construction, so we had to weave in between the orange barrels. Foutunatly, the parade block never broke and we started before the horses. Today, now was the first day of June mini-camp. We practiced from 9 AM till 5 PM every day of the week. It's a lot of work, and it's not very satisfiying ( :/ ), but its fun. Somehow. For the other 'bandos' here, what kind of schedual do you have with parades, practices, ETC?

Masochism comes with the territory when it comes to artistic endeavors. I was in my high school marching band, which sucked without having any redeeming qualities. Now I put on makeup and sing and dance on stage under hot lights in a building without air conditioning in the middle of July, which hurts, but it's rewarding.

The local marching band seems to only really perform on 12th July here.

My sister actually starts her stories about band camp inadvertently with this. It's almost scary.
Spoon - I stand in awe by your flawless fredding. Truely, never before have I witnessed such magnificant display of beamz.
Axem -  I don't know what I'll do with my life now. Maybe I'll become a Nun, or take up Macrame. But where ever I go... I will remember you!
Axem - Sorry to post again when I said I was leaving for good, but something was nagging me. I don't want to say it in a way that shames the campaign but I think we can all agree it is actually.. incomplete. It is missing... Voice Acting.
Quanto - I for one would love to lend my beautiful singing voice into this wholesome project.
Nuclear1 - I want a duet.
AndrewofDoom - Make it a trio!

LOL no need for that sort of head cracking stuff, I'm a happily married young man. I have no idea what the fringle a Sophmore is anyway, It just sounded a bit off the way you posted is all.

Yeah, several of my friends in marching band did too, befure I started hitting them for it.

I play clarinet, but we don't have a marching band and since I've only played for a year it'd be useless (my main instrument is violin).

Don't think I've seen those, but I'm guessing that I'm not one of those people.
