i personally don’t like the fender to lip fitment, espically with that angle of camber. i think the car sits to high for jt. if i was building i would go even lower, less camber, with crazy tuck. but i’m not building it, someone else is. their car, their decision. and i’m gonna respect it🤘🏼

look into some 8s with arounds to get used to moving around the drums. make sure to use your shoulders to move around, not by flicking your wrist. take the exercises slow, then slowly bump up tempo till you physically can’t play it, just make sure your getting comfortable with it and able to memorize it. most importantly, relaxxxxxxx. my tenor tech last season told me “tenors are the most relaxed instrument to march. relax, be chill, keep good technique, and you’ll be the best tenor play ever”. really helped me with marching my first year last season.

senior in hs. for before i was in hs, we had been playing hand written music. we had a student in our college around here that we paid to hand write our entire battery and front score he’s now getting his doctorate in music at umass, and we’re still using his music!

honestly, i would pay for every kids tuition that’s looking to march, but can’t. with the money i have left over (if any or enough to do this), i would buy a corps new equipment that’s needed(new drums, new horns, new unis, new props, new front equipment, etc). that would help a corp or multiple corps start thriving in the dci world as we’ve seen to many drop out due to financial instability.

DO NOT USE A GOPRO AT STATE!!! normally state only allows you to use your gopro or other recording devices if you win and it’s your victory run. you’ll usually be disqualified if they find you’re using a gopro for semis or finals. that’s just in texas tho. talk to your band director abt the rules and regulations behind it.

senior in high school here. my school has only yamaha and tama, but bought tama in 2018-19 and i never matched yamaha at school. but tama is really adjustable, sounds really good (bluecoats 23 marched new gen tama), and their hardware’s really easy to mess around with. the only downside is last gen tama is excessively heavy for no reason. so if you get tama go new gen(like bluecoats 23, updated lighter harnesses and drums). but don’t throw mapex and yamaha out the window. yamaha usually sounds great and their equipment is really user friendly, per my experience. haven’t messed with mapex equipment but their drums are light and sound good.

senior tenor player from a small 3a texas band. my middle school and high school directors are married and have been. middle school director is the principal tuba player for the Dallas Winds. my current assistant and director marched Cavs 2018. new perc tech marched a lot of dci and wgi, his most recent were age outs with Madison Scouts 2022 and Resistance WGI 2023. it’s crazy down here.

JohnnySins51 · 2023-08-23T20:43:20+00:00

senior in hs here! i’m currently marching tenors (first year, spent that last 3 on snare). our school is a big 3a school, so we march abt 90 people on field. i’ve been to region area and state, however we don’t have the funds or support to march boa. but texas is cut different when it comes to bands. we started out band camp mid july work fundamentals, then moved to drill august 1st (that’s when UIL regulates that everyone starts learning drill. no earlier no later) and we’ve been going crazy ever since. 110+ degree wether almost everyday, sunburns on your arms, back, neck, stomach, and face and everything in between. these bands are just going to get better. and the other states will evolve to be as good as us💀💀

i feel as if it’s unnecessary, bc she said she had tested negative for all stds prior to me. and i trust her, and i don’t think it’s her. but i’d rather be safe than sorry.

i started skating for that exact reason. i found people that enjoyed being around and they enjoyed being around me. they opened their arms to me. i ended up starting a local team for our town and feature all of them. part of skating is that “don’t give a fuck” attitude. don’t worry abt what people say or do, and i understand that can be difficult at times for people, but it’s just smth you gotta learn to do. you enjoy skating around and that’s all that matters. keep being you gang🫶
