Coolest symphonic band song ever!

[805Drummer]

So, I'm a freshman in symphonic band, and we're playing this ridiculously cool song, that I wanted to share with you guys because it's just so awesome. There are like, 50 different instruments involved. Listen to it here:

I play the triangle, ratchet, whip, bicycle horn, bells, claves, and splash cymbal. It's hard, but it sounds super cool.

[TheGroceryman]

we play stuff like this (starts a little slow but it picks up 1:40 in):

how offtopic can you go...

Great piece of music 805! Great to develop your rythm and music skills in such a way. I wish I could have had those oppertunities when I was in highschool.

I wish I wasn't the worst player in my percussion class :(

Apocolyptica - Nothing Else Matters

Sorry, but I did not ask a question.

[Mediocrefunkybeat]

Sorry, but I did not ask a question.

If that was question, this is an answer.

[805Drummer]

If that was a question, this is an answer.

Except it wasn't a question.

[Mediocrefunkybeat]

Except it wasn't a question.

But this is an answer. And all answers have a question.

[TheGroceryman]

But this is an answer. And all answers have a question.

but how can you answer a question that doesnt exist? isnt that like saying "i drank from the empty glass of water." how can you drink from a container with nothing in it?

[805Drummer]

but how can you answer a question that doesnt exist? isnt that like saying "i drank from the empty glass of water." how can you drink from a container with nothing in it?

That in itself doesn't make sense. Assuming the glass is empty, it wouldn't be a glass of water--it would be a glass.

And assuming that you WERE drinking from it, there would be water in it.

HEY MAN


there could be kool aid in that glass



or milk, or any other liquid really

[BattleArmor]

I am pretty sure he wasn't trying to answer anything. Just a suggestion probably.

Cool your jets.

[805Drummer]

HEY MAN

D:

Well, there could be anything, but if you refer to it as a glass of water, and it is empty, you can't call it a glass of water.

[TheGroceryman]

If that was an answer, this is a response.

and thus would this be a reply.














lol.

[Mediocrefunkybeat]

And this is a further reply in the affirmative.

Best answer so far.

Twenty all out. England win by nine wickets.

We are in agreement.

I wish I wasn't the worst player in my percussion class :(

That's the best position to be in! Think if it were opposite. You wouldn't learn much. When I was in university, I played with a band where the second youngest member was around 10 years older than myself. These were all very seasoned performers. As a musician, it was really a time of development.

Thanks for the link. I'll check it out.

Think of it this way. If you were the best player in your class, you would have nothing to learn, and you would easily get bored. By being "the worst" you have more to learn than anyone in the class does.

Nice piece. Must be a lot of fun to play. When I was in symphonic band, I remember doing Stravinsky's Circus Polka. This reminds me of that piece.
