    I am a flute player and my band is playing this. Who ever inspired Michael Sweeney to compose this is the best person EVER. I just cannot not get enough of this song and neither can the rest of my band!

    1st chair percussionist on this piece back in 2010 as a senior in HS. It was TOO much fun playing this as well as learning it. Im glad to see that there are others that enjoyed playing and learning this piece as much as I had, and for those who have yet to play it...you are in for a hell of a ride

    Middle school band.... This song brings back so many memories... I wasn't the best player in my band. I was always the slop of the crop, and you know what? That's what made my Middle school years more memorable. I had more of an adventure being at the bottom than I ever had being at the top and now that middle school is over, I regret that I didn't take more pride than I did.

      Bass Clarinets too, it's so sad I just want a solo or something! so it inspired me to write a song where every part of the low end of the band would get a solo or melody! It's such a shame though! Pretty instruments (low brass and reed) make pretty sounds and need to be heard! 😂

    My band might play this when we go to Orlando next semester, I asked my band director for the music (he has a lot of music) so I've been playing along with this. I hope I get the trumpet solo if we play it!

    I've been begging my band director to let us play this for years ever since I got to play it in an honors band, and he still hasn't gotten the sheet music for it.
