Well that's not good. :? Judges like to see players that enjoy playing their show.

It depends how cool i think it is. i never got sick of my last year's show of the Beatles. It was great. I got sick of my field show for this year though. We did Chicago and i was sick of after band camp. i just had a positive attitude about for the rest of the season. I never really liked the movie so how could i like the music? ya know? So yeah....

we never get tired of our shows. at least not our winter shows. field shows, percussion gets tired of those after the 1st full practice. but winter, never. i still love last years show and we play parts of it all the time. we'll still be playing it the day we graduate. it just never goes away for us. our seniors are still playing their shows from freshman and sophomore year. especially the one from their sophomore year cuz they won championships last year. i think its because there are so many memories that go along with each song, each show, each set of drill, some joke you made about some part, theres a story to each aspect of the show and theres so many fun times that went along with it we just dont want to let it go.

i never get tired of our winterline shows. there is so much stuff happening and new stuff coming all the time. Its fun. Field shows with the band get get tiring. i know the drumline was tired of the show about half way through the season. but winter line is always good stuff.

someone once told me that the only time you're allowed to be bored with a show is when it's perfect....

that hasn't happened yet.... :wink:

i dont think ive ever been bored with our show.

i mean FOR SURE i have in marching season....coz...its marching season :\ and first semester is just boring anyway coz you cant really do a lot of the stuff you can in winterline.

but INDOOR is totally different. EVERY practice theres something added, which always is something exciting. and in indoor season the show gets better and better every time you perform it. plus with all the added stuff it makes it a whlie lot more exciting then when you first get it and youre like "ok, this is boring....blah blah everything repeats, and its slow, and theres nothing fun."

but then you get how to play it, and add visuals and all that fun stuff.


weeeeeeeee
ok, i think this response may have been a wee bit long. ha

oh well

by the end of the season... my bass line has somehow changed almost every part that they play... but they dont do it caus they dont like the part... it just happens and they dont realize it.... the original bass part sounds nothing like the part they play now... i dont understand those drummers... :roll:
