What do you think of the WCU Marching Band? This is my college marching band. Read details below for what I want?

Part 1: 1. In the Vegas Opener, were the people in yellow “Color Guard” or flag twirlers? Sadly I noticed that it seemed like most people where paying attention to the twirling red and white flags.

I found the choreography pretty good, I like it when they spell words lol. I think it takes a lot of time to learn how to do these types of things. Part of the song reminded me of a song that was in a school play at my school.

Guys and Dolls Jr. The song was “Luck Be A Lady” I think. Lol, well it went luck be a lady tonight luck if you’ve ever been a lady to begin with luck be a lady tonight or something like that. Like I started to notice the song at 1:14, maybe a little sooner.

Anyways the Color Guard and the Band looked like they spent a good amount of time working on the song and display. 2. In the Cirque, I loved how it started out!

The music was very nice. At 1:09 did the people in front kneel down? That is pretty cool if they did.

Goodness, so much movement. The music seems fun and playful. At like 2:23 the wave type looking thing that the bad did was awesome.

Nice finish. 3. In When I Fall In Love, it was very beautiful.

The marching matched the song very well, it was not quick movement, some marching bands seem to clash the movement with the music. Lol, I love color guard. The flags.

Hmm I noticed a lot of what sounded like trumpet solos, did they use a microphone? Was it always the same person. I am not sure if you will be able to answer all of these questions but that’s ok.

I am just curious. 4. In Can't Buy Me Love, Perfect song to go after When I Fell In Love, what a strong start.

Marching and playing an instrument is kind of hard, either you have to have the music memorized or have a gawky stand on the instrument which is annoying, Hmm do they have to remember the music or is it on a stand. At 2:09 ahh they all bunched up. Kind of sounds like the music is bunched lol.

Aww they all kneeled down and let one person play. Color Guard is messing up a little bit. Ahh too close to the stands lol.

Made the crowd go wild lol. But it’s not over yet! WOW Really close up song next 5.

In Grits Ain't Groceries, The close up song starting, I find this kind of strange. Color guard looks like they are having fun with all of their around the worlds and butterflies, those are moves. I still do not like that the band is so close, I am sorry.

But for being so close to each other they did a good job. Yes, I realize that the people in the first one are color guard now. This is stated in the question.

I was just writing as I watched and writing what I thought and that’s what I thought. Part 2: The band in general did a very good job. I loved the solos and I love how they started their songs where they left off on their last songs.

Hmm, What is your school fighting song? Does a University even have one? Sorry, I might be asking to many questions in my answer, lol, what a silly answer.

Anyways, sorry, back to the points. I think the videos might not do the band justice because we can not really see the whole thing sometimes. Part 3: I have, my mom liked it lol, and I am letting other people know too don’t worry.

(^_^)V.

My girlfriends dad worked there for 20 yrs and I live in wc most of my life I always loved hearing the marching band.

I have no basis for commenting of the formations, so I am gonna leave that alone. I found some of the song selection odd. When I fall in love for example was so slow and not the type of song that "will work" at a football event in my opinion.

The songs that tend to be successful as far as the crowd getting into it are the upbeat/disco jams such as earth wind & fire etc. Overall you guys sound great, considering what the audio has been captured on. I am an audio engineer and am stuck up when it comes to sound quality ... but that was prolly not within your control. The only other comment or suggestion I would make is that I need more cowbell.

LoL. But seriously, in the thriller video I could barely make out the drum-line. Not sure whats going on there ... they just getting drowned out or what.

Again, this could be because of how the audio is being captured. Here is a video of my college band to compare with yours.

I cant really gove you an answer,but what I can give you is a way to a solution, that is you have to find the anglde that you relate to or peaks your interest. A good paper is one that people get drawn into because it reaches them ln some way.As for me WW11 to me, I think of the holocaust and the effect it had on the survivors, their families and those who stood by and did nothing until it was too late.
