So, we're told our new show theme every year around the same time, when we have to get our classes for the next year signed off for stuff.
We were talking about it, and it sounds amazing! It's designed for a dome, because that's where grand nationals is going to be! (Our first time...you have no idea how excited we all are. =D) It's sort of Night at the Museum-esqe, except a lot cooler. xd It starts off with a piano solo (playing Bach's Cello Suite), and the color guard is like statues. The band enters, and we're all like, "Woah! Statues!" xd It's sort of like us exploring a museum. Then, the chimes play the same note nine times, I believe, signifying that it's nine o'clock (the whole show has that theme of time in it, because it starts and ends the same way- I think it goes through twelve hours), and then the statues come to life! They start to move, and their statue costume is taken off, and they become inanimate objects...except, you know, they're moving. xd So this whole struggle kind of happens between the band and the color guard, and I think at another bell toll there's a guard member and a band member inbetween the two groups, with their hands pressed together! Awwww. :] We start playing purdy music, they start dancing, all cool stuff.
That's about all we had time to talk about (and I'm probably not allowed to be saying this stuff? xd In case people want to steal it...so DON'T D< ), but it sounds like our show's going to be amazing! I'm so excited. We don't have a title for it yet, though...of course. I guess we'll learn more about it eventually...

Aw, lucky. that sounds cool. We won't know our show for quite some time now, like, last week of schoolish. I do know that by the trip to Anaheim, we will know our student staff(hopefully I will be on that lsit, hopefully as dm)
I'll definately post when we get our show. It is going to be a good, fastpaced kind of thing, that I know. Every other year we do a rock/popular music show. last year we did a rock tour, this year was classical/western themed Aaron copland, so next year will be something in the rock/popular lines.

I'm not really sure what our show is supposed to be called.
It was supposed to be Berlin Wall, but, since our band doesn't get much funding from the school, thus leaving us to fundraisers from hell, it was much too expensive.
I got sick and missed two days, and apparently over those two days we sampled music. So, last I heard, it's leaning towards somthing like From Light to Darkness, or something like that.

Shadster3751 We are usually told nothing but the theme. This year is going to be awesome though its Cirque Du Soleil! biggrin which cirque du soleil show? i did quidam last year that has atmadja, ninkou latora, quidam, and incantation. That was a really cool show. We made it a magic show. this year we're doing carmen. i'm afraid to hear how the band will handle the 16th notes and trills in the theme XD that's going to be fun. If i make drum major, i'm definatly going to learn the flute part on the score so i can play it in my spare time. i have wanted to play that song forever!! i already played part of it by ear but then the trills and crap get confusing so i gave up XD

SPHS is considering Nightmare Before Christmas (I know, epic!) but I;m trying to push for a show I put together from individual songs, all of it being 80s Sunset Strip Glam Metal.

I know we're getting our new show music soon but I don't know what the theme is yet because my band director leaves that decision to the juniors and I'm a freshmen. From what I hear it's a rock theme so I'm not looking too forward to it. . .
