Who likes Marching bands??

At my school, the band rules with shear numbers, only all the other kids don't get that and taunt those who proudly claim to be a band member. If you could just see the band perform, actualy perform you woulden't believe we are a High school band. Do you think that marching band is only walking and playing an instroment? if so, you haven't seen a true performance by a good band. So do you think the students who call the marching band a wast of school funds, shoujld be even listened to? Oh, by the way my school is fairly new, but the marching band competed in every competition since its opening, we haven't gotten less than a 2, (exalent) at all. the past marching season we got over 9 awards.

the uniforms are exteremly neredy, but thats the schools fault, but the feald shows are amazing,

Being in a marching band teaches self-discipline, as well as the importance of teamwork. The band also serves as a home away from home and acts as a BIG family for all members. Marching band also helps in college because college's like to see your dedication and devotion to the program. They are also aware of the extremely difficult work and situations band members go through to become successful.

I don't.

im not a huge fan to be honest. But i am a drummer....and i love playing marching drums....well, a bit of funk fusion marching band, but close enough....i love it.
Im n aussie, we dont really have them at our schools as far as im aware. But i can understand why people taught you guys, ive seem numerous hollywood films of american football and there nerdy matching bands....and to be honest, the costumes are a bit.....well.....yea....

I like marching bands that are run, managed, taught, and blend well. The rest give us a bad name:(
