#front ensemble

[mrmarchingband]

Welcome to the pit, Climber!

Climber has no past experience with any instrument that is known so far, though he did know how to a pickaxe quite expertly, using this information he was chosen for Colorguard but he also chose to do Pit, which he got chosen Xylophone! He'll have a lot of fun this season learning and playing on field

Where are the marching band aus with pit included? Where are the characters with the marimbas? The vibraphones? The synths? You're perfectly fine giving characters drum sets in garage band aus, why not put em in front ensemble?

dear dci/marching band people…

if you are/were a drum major, what instrument did you play prior or aside to being a drum major? If you know a drum major feel free to answer for them as well! i’m trying to see who is most likely to become a drum major.

Feel free to specify your instrument/experience in a comment/reblog too!

Also, please reblog and share so we can get a good result!

Thank you! :)

(p.s. i applaud those who have no instrument experience… how did you do it?)

Something I’m really enjoying about this year’s marching season is noticing how much I’ve improved. My wrists have gotten better, my reading is better, my volume has improved. It’s just cool to notice. :}}

Percussionists please listen

Man you know marching band might have stolen four years of my life and I still have nightmares about it ten years later but

This song would make such a slapping percussion section warm-up oh my GOD

I wish I knew how to write music lol

All the parts are there!!! Pretty much

Like the marimba part would be the most complicated (but certainly not impossible for high schoolers) I think and idk if the snare stuff is easy or hard but it's already written in there as the typewriter and I lov e this song

Vibes/bells would have it pretty easy which is better for beginner players anyway

Idk about the rest though

Anyway just wanted to share ;-; I would send it to my old percussion instructor because he's a master at writing / transcribing but he ended up being a creepy PDF file :') rip

I feel like a sassage 

Shame is powerful, if something isn’t listening to you shame them.

“Everybody cLap your hands!” “Clap his cheeks”.  ….”sorry what.”

“I’m a fetus!”

“God forgive me for the jokes I have made they weren’t good”

“The only thing I throw is throw down” “the only thing I throw is when I throw my life away” 

“You already have a hole so let’s just make it bigger” throws Someone on the ground after seeing a small hole in their uniform.

“ I hate it but my brother is getting married” 

“I don’t hate that he’s getting married I just hate that he isn’t going to be here”

“They installed a stereo in my head”

“Pick them up! if a tuba smashes a low g it’s going to die”

“No! We are not “All in this together” we are playing symbols!”

“The keys are made of wood, so they can break easily. That’s why we need to wrap them- “as easy as the resonators disconnect?”

“If your gay and you know it clap your hands!”

“One time it was raining so hard people got out their shampoo and conditioner and took showers in the rain. I was one of those people so..”

“He said ‘you live in the Arby’s dumpster’l

“We should start adding slay bells to pep tunes.”

“No you don’t want to give that to her, she had an eating disorder that makes her eat inanimate objects. She’d eat the lid” the girl-“and the plume and the box and this hat” “that’s a lot of violence”

“My (short study period nicknamed free the school mascot for freshman) class is super racist” “this class isn’t much better.”

“The donuts are there if you want to sample them at your own risk”

The door is closed “this calls for skipping”

i think i could watch every dci video in the world and i would still lose my shit every time colorguard did anything

[staledirt87]

I'm really not surprised, that with the combination of flute playing, vibraphone playing, excessive writing, excessive drawing, and compulsive rubik's cube solving, I got both tendonitis and carpal tunnel simultaneously

"Why doesn't pit do anything?"

Do you not see us pushing our crap onto the field?

Half the stuff we do in front of you guys is to make you hate us less.

I befriended a moth, almost gassed myself and the moth with sunscreen, and got toasted like a piece of bread in the sun all in the same day.

Today was probably the best day of band camp I have ever had. It was so much fun, people were getting along, everything was funny, and we played so well.

I hope band camp in the future is just like today.
