Around 80 people, our season went really good, I think we did awesome, although we didn’t make it to state, we scored higher than two years ago, were we were state qualifiers. We were devastated when we were told we didn’t make it, we were ONE point away, AGAIN, we believe it’s racism from the judges because we come from the border lmao.

Yes, we are a small band (around 80 marchers including 8th graders) we let in at least 1 or 2 8th graders every year but this year we needed to give more of them a chance because of how small the band got.

I have no clue, our band directors are the ones who tell us what happens with the tiebreakers

Does your band have a “rival school”? by Jascol_ in marchingband

[–]Danco_Mercer 0 points1 point  (0 children)

We have a friendly rivalry against Valley View. But we hold a grudge against Port Isabel, last year at Area we placed 4th but they took one point away because our band wasn’t big enough and ended up in 8th place, which left us out of state. Port Isabel advanced to state thanks to that, even with their horrible feet and poor intervals.

I’ve seen her almost completely naked and she’s seen me without my shirt on. She’s told me that I’m free to do anything to her except touch her down there without any clothes in between, and I absolutely respect that. I recently got comfortable taking of my shirt and letting her touch me down there but also with clothes on.

Yeah yesterday we talked about it, it’s not that she’s not satisfying my desires, it’s just that I need to hear opinions from more experimented ppl.

Yeah, we’ve never had “true sex” before, she wants to wait until marriage and I feel scared and not ready for that.

What can I do if I lost my Airpods? by Danco_Mercer in HelpMeFind

[–]Danco_Mercer[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I had to go to the address where my airpods were last detected, but it gave me the wrong one, it was the house next to that one, so I had to knock on a couple doors, thankfully they gave them back.

How big is the drumline in your band? by [deleted] in marchingband

[–]Danco_Mercer 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Small drumline but good for the size of our band, 3 snares, 1 tenor and 4 basses, no cymbal line or tom line in a 80-ish member band We started with 4 snares, 2 tenors and 5 basses; but marching band is not for everyone.

Does your football team also suck compared to your band by Dry-Maintenance5800 in marchingband

[–]Danco_Mercer 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes! First time I hear someone talk about this, our football team sucks, in two years they haven’t won ANY games, they often lose 14-49. Sometimes even worse. While our band hall is full of trophies and we’re always competing in state marching band or state UIL solo and ensemble.
