off to band I go
 
Well.... Tomorrow morning on a sunday i head off to band practice and then we leave to San Antonio for the our Area marching contest. Will be gone from 10 tomorrow morning (yes on a sunday) till about 2 or 3 AM on tuesday. Hopefully we do good and advanced to the State marching contest. I would suspect we will advance to state not to be cocky but our band plays pretty damn good. We suck at marching but we kill everyone else in music so i guess it evens out. Anyways wish me luck. We're going to go kick some ass

Wow, you white people sure like to join clubs and do a lot of activities and go camping and shit...

Disgusting. Why not just be lazy like us hispanics? You get to sit at home, drink your Heineken, and watch Cartoon Network all day!

He himself plays the tuba, but the band that he's playing with consists of all of those.

Hope you can play trumpet.

You gotta go playing tomorrow in a concert. You never know, you may get to march around stage.

Off Topic: Lenny shut the FUCK up. That made absouletly no sense at all. Just stop and think before you respond "Does this shit I'm typing mean anything? Will anyone even give a shit what I type, let alone understand it?" And if it passes those guidelines, then go ahead and hit the "post" button. But if it doesn't, walk away from the computer and go outside for the first time in years.

On topic: Good luck timmay....I was in marching band, but i dropped last year. We suck horribly, and the teacher is a bitch.

iceman887 2004-10-24 01:20 PM

good luck

MightyJoe 2004-10-24 01:22 PM

Good luck Tim, have fun!

HandOfHeaven 2004-10-24 01:24 PM

Have fun

Shining Knights 2004-10-24 01:51 PM

It matters not whether you win or lose; what matters is whether I win or lose.

platnum 2004-10-24 03:31 PM

I hope you get horny and have sex with your tuba.

Thanatos 2004-10-24 04:59 PM

Mantra.. is that you?

SurrealWaking 2004-10-25 08:16 PM

Blah, marching band. I didn't get in on it, all I can play is bass, I guess that's not good marching band material or something. -.-'

timmay1113 2004-10-26 02:14 AM

To let everyone know. We went to area kicked some ass and made 1st place out of 30 bands. We shall be going to state next week to compete with the top 35-40 high school bands from Texas. Hopefully we will kick ass there too. All i know is im bloody tired and happy that we did good. Marching band is a bitch sometimes but the contests are probably the best part. Marching band is better than concert season... i don't fall asleep in band class anyways.

Sovereign 2004-10-26 09:30 AM

Best of luck on your band crusade

timmay1113 2004-10-26 03:54 PM

I'm going to be freakin glad that i will have some free time after we go to state. 1 week to go...

Demosthenes 2004-10-26 03:59 PM

MightyJoe 2004-10-26 08:19 PM

Congrats and good luck as the competetion gets harder.

Lenny 2004-10-28 12:12 PM

I remember when I still played cornet in my local brass band, we played a concert or went marching literally every other week. And then Christmas...sheesh. We went around the streets of Lancashire and collected money. Christmas Carols till 10 at night. Freezing your fingers off. Heavy collecting tins. And when we marched it always rained, and we wore really thin shirts. Crazy. The highlight of this band was probably playing at the Queens birthday party. Soon after I quit.

Do you have to use Liars (sp? never actually knew how you spell it...) to hold your music??? That was annoying, having to change the music on the liar. Hold your instrument with two hands, open the liar with another two hands, then change your music with a fifth and/or sixth hand.

----------

How long have you been playing Tuba???

----------

Good luck in the State thing. Have I said good luck too late??? I don't know. A weekend has just passed, but...ignore me.

Mantralord 2004-10-28 01:23 PM

Ugh, activities!!!

Well other people use lyers or liars whatever. I am a tuba so i just hold the music in one hand and finger with the other. It is still wrather annoying sometimes, a lot easier just to memorize the music. We only use liars when we play in the stands at a football game. During our marching show everything is memorized. I have been playing the tuba for about.... 5 and a half years. You arent too late for the good luck and thx for the good luck's and congrats guys. State is next tuesday so i will tell yall how we do.
