Montgomery Game Band Talk

[CS]

Hearing the Band is leaving at Halftime due to competition the next day. That really sucks. We need them.

Bring up the middle school bands! Seriously. Why not? At minimum that can play Cherokee over and over when needed.

 

[Usedtocould]

Bad decision
And on Halloween no less.

 

[Usedtocould]

Bring up the middle school bands!

Yes
If only the drum corps
We need something

I’m graduating from bad decision to terrible decision.

I'd rather see them stay in a hotel at the school's expense rather than leave early from the most important game of the season.

Calling upon all former band members... Time for an alumni band?

Great idea.

Or at least some speakers to set up in the stands to play war chant and Cherokee. We need all the energy this game!!

It might be a little too late for this but next year let's plan on it. Something the school directors can feel comfortable with.

I like that idea.

 

[Usedtocould]

Why even make the trip if you’re going to leave halfway into the game

Ok one more hour you save

Dumb choice (yes I graduated again lol)

There were 1/2 dozen former Indian Spirits out there at the homecoming game.about 10% of all former spirit dancers. Plug in that percentage with former band members and you’d really have something!

 

[Usedtocould]

If I didn’t have a prior engagement id bring my huge bass drum.

How quickly can we get one of these to pull in the parking lot and blast cherokee?

 

[IndianFan]

Make it a purple one.

 

[IndianFan]

At the homecoming game some of the band members exited the field during the ‘competition’ part of the halftime performance and just observed. A good 20-25% of the band. Why can’t that group stay and hold down the fort in Montgomery?

That's really upsetting

That's really upsetting

Yes, it’s unfortunate but understandable because they have to be back in Channelview for marching contest EARLY Saturday morning since they are scheduled to perform around 10am.

This happens every year.
Remember last year the choir was a no show. This should never happen.
We need an approved plan/group for the one or two times a year that this happens.

Not being argumentative... just have to say it though. The football players show up at the field house every Saturday at 8:30 AM, even after games like Lake Creek when they get in bed after 1 AM. It sucks to see that level of commitment from the boys, and something like this happen. No one's fault, I'm sure there are many other factors, third party organizations and governing bodies all at play. Just had to complain a little. Now I feel better.
