MARCHING MOODBOARDS #1: the color guard 

You’ll get tired of having to translate measure numbers into drill sets for them, and they are probably always the last section ready for a performance. They always lead the bus ride sing-a-longs, and have a universal rivalry with the drumline that can only cease in the event that there are members from each section dating. They think they’re hot shit, but that’s probably because they are. Sometimes, you swear they’re speaking a completely made up language.

talking to people about colorguard

person: what sport are you in? :-)

me: im in colorguard

person: what is colorguard? arent you in band?

me: we spin flags and various weapons like rifle and saber and often spin while simultaneously having to dance and retain ballet skills alongside performance skills and remembering our drill spots!! and technically we are a part of the band unit, but we don't play music or anything like that. often times we just call ourselves band members just to save time with teachers and whatnot.

person: what

things that annoy color guard members

-when the wind takes your flag to the other side of the football field -when it rains and your silk gets heavy and sticks to your body/your weapon slides right out of your hands -when you order new gloves and you have to break them in and until then you can’t squeeze -when your flag comes untaped in the middle of flag block -when your friend’s flag comes untaped in the middle of flag block -wind -when it’s windy and you’re holding a pose or something and your flag makes the “whoop whoop whoop whoop” sound -when your instructor says “one more time” (lie) -when you tell people you’re in color guard and they’re like “oh cool my friend is in rotc” -wind -when you tell people you’re in drum corps and they say “i didn’t know you play the drums” -when you have to wear performance blacks because your uniform isn’t ready yet -wind -when it’s hot outside and your uniform is 72829922 layers -when it’s cold outside and your uniform is very revealing -glove tans
