    Attention to all posting in the comments section, if you happen to come across any video reguarding the our 2016 performance of Leonard's Dream that isn't posted by this channel, please report it as it is not meant to be seen on the TH-cam until our marching season is over. Thank You.

      This year we will be going to the UIL State competition which is the same week as GN and since we can't be in two places at once we will not be attending this year. We will however be going in 2017.

    • @UltimateEpikness
      @UltimateEpikness  8 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      We aren't able to go this year simply because we also have state two days after our super regional and the GN would be immediately after that and our school district policy is no more than two days absent from school for organization activities.

    • @UltimateEpikness
      @UltimateEpikness  8 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      The "voice box", as we'd call it, opens in part 5 to reveal a choir. In Alvin Silvestri's music Transylvanian Horses he has a choir part and so we added our choir as an extra part to give the music one more depth of truly conveying this wonderful piece of music graciously given to us.

    • @UltimateEpikness
      @UltimateEpikness  7 ปีที่แล้ว +2

      Our show is based off of surreal artwork from famous artists such as Salvador Dalí (3rd movement) and Van Gogh (4th movement). The show is meant to instill an interest in artistry and a fascination of making artwork come to life.

      Well, in movement three, two banners comes out, one with a sax and one that reads in French "This is not a saxophone" referring to the artwork of René Magritte who has a painting in which the pipe is referring to itself being just a painting and not an actual pipe itself.

    • @UltimateEpikness
      @UltimateEpikness  8 ปีที่แล้ว +3

      This in turn gave the idea to our show designer to create a banner that read, "This is not a marching band" to have a fun twist at the end of our show.

    • @UltimateEpikness
      @UltimateEpikness  8 ปีที่แล้ว +3

      Correct. As the banner passes over the band we are no longer "marching" as the banner says "This is not a marching band" and we were told to just do whatever we could to not have any technique whatsoever. It was the best part of the show because it was the most creative as you could do whatever you wanted.

      Hard work and dedication. Don't stop working for what you want and sooner or later you'll have it. We wanted to be a band of a quality like no other so we worked until we got there, but we still don't stop because we choose to be the best at what we do. And what we do is enjoy marching.

    Hey, since this Saturday my last BOA San Antonio Super Regional, I felt that anyone who wanted a pair of gloves from a FloMo band kid is welcome to have one. However, I only have at most 3 to give, so anyone who might be interested by this please leave a comment below. Those who participate in full retreat should proceed to meet me on the front hash mark on the 50 Yard line. Thanks.

      Believe it or not music programs aren’t swimming in cash, even the well funded programs funding pales in comparison to any high school athletic program. There are band dues that are paid by those who can afford it, and most programs constantly reuse or repurposes existing resources for the years show. There is also a ton of donations of time and resources to these programs from dedicated parents and former members, plus they work their asses off. Maybe if your band worked a little harder and smarter you’d achieve something like this, but it’s not likely because your school’s program is unfortunately full of people, well, like you.
