Ok, so this is the footage from Saturday October 17th, at C.H. Collins Athletic Complex in Denton for UIL contention. We made Area in Odessa and we leave Friday. This was the best we have ever done this, and we added lots of new things. Enjoy!

Wow, nice job, that was cool. What instrument do you play?

I can't imagine having to not only carry and play an instrument but also to have to walk around in a very precise manner. That must be really hard!

Anyways, great job, it was cool seeing it.
 
How long did it take to practice all the choreography etc?
 
^^^ I play the trumpet but I march with saxophones.
^^ I know their band wimped out after half time (cuz it was raining) and they took up half of them and the stadium is quite nice.
^ We just finished the final movement in the show after starting in early August so about 2 1/2 months.

It really isn't that hard, but a lot of things do have to be precise. This was one of our better performances. I will update this maybe Friday or Saturday as tomorrow we're doing thew whole show. It can be kind of stressful having rehearsals just about every day but if it makes us look good then it's ok. we also have visuals in between counts and stuff so it's fun. Good memories already.
 
WOW nice! Looks like that took a lot of time and effort to make, and congrats for the ranking that you guys got. Sucks you didn't make it to finals but you still did very well and I enjoyed watching it. If a vid can keep my attention for nine minutes it's definitely good.
 
^ Thanks. The schedule can get very tedious but it's worth it when we finally get to do it.
 
Well here we are again, a new marching season which means a new show! This one is a custom show helped composed by our percussion director called "FALLING" based on the concept of sky diving. It consists (as of now) the pre show Launch, the opener Drop Zone, and the ballad Soaring. Although in the video below, it's just Launch and Drop Zone.

Just recently we got the ballad on the field, so sometime within the next week we will have the entire show (so far since we don't have a closer) on the field! (This was a couple of weeks ago so I swear most of the problems have been fixed :))
 
You guys are too legit. I loved the airplane at the beginning and overall, the music was great. Impressive job.

Also, if that's your school's football field, you guys are lucky.
 
^No it's not. Ours is bigger. You'll see it in the coming weeks. Actually the original post, that's our stadium
 
Last nights show, it was actually a lot better than I thought, except for the huge tear on Launch, as was expected.

It's Golden Triangle time again!! Best performance of the year, but sadly, due to other awesome bands performing, we didn't place. But still had a kick ass time

Man it's been awhile but BUMP.

Ok I know not everyone cares about this but hey, why the hell not? Here's the Guyer Band's new show: BEYOND

Concept is easy: Man dies, chaos reigns, peaceful realization, then he gets brought back to life harshly. Without further ado, BEYOND
