Welcome to Gaia! ::

Yeah, I fugured out that a while ago sweatdrop


And the words "We've almost got it- one more time and we should be perfect!" is a lie, too. Its just something to keep us going.

My high school director would say "one more time" and we'd end up doing it a bunch more times but he also told us often that once was a fluke so we had to prove we could do it right twice in a row. All our practices were also structured so that there were two back-to-back complete run-throughs at the end. Usually the guard instructors were much better though. If they said "once more", they would either stick to it, or give a reason why the once-more hadn't been good enough. I think it's better to say "again" instead, but only if you know what wasn't working the first time. Sometimes it's obvious and people should know if they really screwed up, but if the same person makes the same mistake more than twice in a row, the nearest tech needs to mention it instead of letting it hold the whole band up.

Ok yeah that is soooo... true I am in 7th grade and we were alowed to join winter guardand I have heard it more times from her than my band teacher during marching and he just said uno mas, or however its spelled? Finally we said to him just say one more after this time!!!
