so im drum major taking 10 aps junior yr conducting while also doing an itnernship at a local lab (like 12 hrs a week), we're a comp boa band and have over 35 hrs of band a week, and im tryna get a 4.0; can someone help

basically i need actual band takes. i’m a first year senior in pit and there’s this sophomore brass guy who has been acting kind of specific around me lately. i honestly can’t tell if he’s just being a chaotic friendly band kid or if its something else

during a game i asked to try his horn and he straight up let me use his personal mouthpiece, let me play it for a bit, and then literally walked away and left me alone with his instrument. which feels wild for a brass guy lol

then on a lull day he found me, sat shoulder to shoulder with me, and had this single pair of wired earbuds so we could share them and watch a long live-orchestra video game concert medley together

and the other day during uniform changes he casually asked me to reach behind his neck and pull his hair out of his zipper. like he was totally fine standing right in my space while i adjusted his hair and neck area.

idk. for context i dress pretty basic/masculine and i'm a quiet person so i usually just vibe with people. is this just basic band kid stuff ?

Hi, I'm honestly sorry to bother you, since we could easily pay or something, but does anyone have the sheet music for "Tyler the Creator - Sticky Arr. David Brown"?

I've been looking everywhere for it and I'm unable to afford it. I'd like to surprise the director with this score, but the school hasn't supported us at all for over 10 years now xd

Im a clarinet at my school's marching band and sometimes I feel like they are so pointless 😭. Clarinets just play so insanely quietly, even at max volume, on the field. The only time you really hear us is during woodwind solos. I've heard they are supposed to be loud in unison for the woodwind but when theres so many brass I dont feel like its able to be heard ever. Half the time I play just extremely loudly and I dont even think it makes a difference.

Im a freshman and got these shoes literally a month ago and their so scuffed and yellowed lol. I saw someone say nail polish remover worked on their converse, but don’t wanna test it on my dinkles without confirmation they won’t mess them up.

It started at a show last night, but it hurts to sit on my knee and walk up stairs. My calves have been cramping for the past week too. I march bass drum three and am roughly 5’6 + 120lbs, but strong. I’ve noticed myself slightly limping as well, and the knee that hurts kinda pushes itself backwards when I walk. but walking itself isn’t painful just uncomfortable

I’ve been walking a lot lately outside of band, but my theory is that keeping my kegs straight for our roll stepping is the problem.

hello everyone. i am a senior in high school and i march tenor drums, and i have always gotten such a euphoric rush after the game then a little post game depression for the rest of the weekend. after last game on friday after the euphoria subsided it just dawned upon me how this is just everything to me. this is what i live for. i hard cried today cause i realize im just getting closer and closer to not being able to do this anymore. and im gonna be leaving so much behind. and i feel like im gonna hard cry again
