Do you need world class experience to march here or can you make it if you open class experience because I plan on auditioning next summer (2018) for drum set
skydrop I'm fairly positive you can march straight out of high school. I know that 2 or 3 current pit members at Bluecoats came to Bluecoats straight out of high school or while they were still in high school like Michael.
I'm the section leader for the pit in our band, and I'd love to get any advice I can get from you for being a leader. I want to make the section fantastic, some things just don't work out. Anything?
Hey bro. I've been lucky enough to have some awesome guys as my section leaders and I've definitely taken lots of inspiration from them. I feel like at the end of the day, all you can really do is be the best that you can be. This not only means being able to play your stuff at the highest level possible, but treating your friends with the highest level of love and respect possible. Things can get pretty tough and tense sometimes, but if you hang out with your homies and treat them with lots of respect, I think you guys will become much closer. Plus, people will be more inclined to follow your lead and get on your level if they already look up to you and like you as a person. I would say don't worry too much about super specific things like technique, and care mostly about bringing everyone up and having a good time! Hope this helps man.
Yeah haha. It's pretty tough at first, but I felt like playing lockjaw in tons of keys was the easiest way for me to get comfortable with everything. After I felt a little more solid on the shapes of all keys I started trying to play tougher keys with poprocks. It'd be great for you to learn as many as you can, but don't feel too discouraged if a couple keys still trip you up! It takes time to get comfortable!
what did the drum major say at 1:37 those six words are something something
