Question: how in the FUCK did Roman hit Virgil when V's in pit?? I get hitting logan cuz drum majors have to go deal with every section but???? How???

Roman: LISTENNNNN. IT’S THE WINDDDDDDDDD.

[themarchingsides]

Do you ever plan on adding Remus? Also have any of them tried to spin the color guard equipment? Btw glad you're posting again love the au!

Hi! Ari here! Remus will be added on later, dw!!

---

Roman: Oh they’ve tried... Before I found out and almost killed them for it. Say it with me. Don’t. Touch. The. Guard. Equipment. If. You’re. Not. In. Guard.

[themarchingsides]

A question for Thomas! What's the most difficult thing about directng? What's your favorite thing?

Thomas: Really truly it’s just the long practices, especially in Florida heat. It’s long and tiring but in the end, it’s worth it. Also drill rewrites.... A nightmare

[themarchingsides]

best football game memory? can be in the stands or on the bus. oh! and what's the latest y'all got home from a game/competition?

Patton: Oh! This one time it started to rain during a game. And by rain I mean it POURED. So of course all the woodwinds were FREAKING OUT, so we all made a MAD DASH to the buses. There we all just waited out the rain singing songs on the speaker. And for the latest we’ve gotten home? I’d sayyy like 3 am? For far-away competitions. This is why I bring a blanket on the bus.

[themarchingsides]

Roman, how the HECK did you hit LOGAN?!! Isn’t he a drum major???

Roman: It was the wind I swear.

Logan: Roman there was no wind that day, you-

Roman: It was the windddddddddddddddddddddddd.

[themarchingsides]

What is their band banquet like? At the end of the year. (I had my band banquet recently and it was FEELS CENTRAL even tho I know like 10 seniors)

Logan: Usually we have awards, we watch our finals performance, have dinner, senior speeches and pass-downs, the usual.

Patton: It’s so sweet being able to see the seniors one last time :)

[themarchingsides]

If Logan can play clarinet does that mean he can play Bass Clarinet 👀 cause all low reeds are my babies

Logan: I can. I will occasionally depending on what is needed during concert season or a piece, but preferably I’ll stick to the clarinet. 

[themarchingsides]

What are yall's favorite band camp snacks?? Mine's frozen uncrustables

Logan: Baby carrots. Easy to carry in my fannypack, as well as healthy.

Patton: Peanut butter crackers!!!

Roman: Apple slices. But specifically pink lady apples.

Virgil: I just keep chips in my mallet bag.

Remy: Doritos

Emile: Those veggie stix? They’re so good.

Dante: All of the above.

#JoanAppreciationDay

Joan is incredibly talented in every way! They make me laugh and smile every time I see them. I always hope and pray for each time Thomas uploads a video for Joan to appear. The effort they put into every script and song is so inspiring. They are truly the best! All my love and support goes out to them! ❤️🧡💛💚💙💜 @thejoanglebook

Patton at some point: “a journey of a thousand miles begins with one small 8 to 5 step.”

IF I HAD A DOLLAR FOR ANY TIME A BAND KID SAID THIS IRONICALLY I COULD BUY A NEW SAXOPHONE.

Figured I might as well post this Deceit drawing I made for @themarchingsides AU!! I love the tenors with my whole soul and @curlyq-art did so well with the sides’ character designs ;-;

[oddy-png]

This literally makes me so so happy I’m still not over this oh my gosh.

[themarchingsides]

VIRGIL: I used to not drink enough water so I’d get real sick sometimes.

PATTON: Emile basically now carries around like 50 things of snacks and water bottles to make sure we’re all good! Honestly, bless his soul for doing so.

[themarchingsides]

VIRGIL: Yeah I can do 4 mallets. Took a while to get down but it’s do able.  PATTON: I literally don’t understand how you’re able to do it, it’s like magic. __ A/N: Here’s a wonderful link to Phantom Pegiment’s 2016 Marimba Cam if you’re curious about what Virgil plays. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WRPyYBUdfxs __ Tag List Below:

[themarchingsides]

VIRGIL: I mean I guess...? VIRGIL: We don’t usually watch the drum major ‘cause pit listens back to drumline.... VIRGIL: But yeah sometimes when pit gets a break, it’s nice to watch Logan conduct. He’s so serious about it it’s cool but also kinda intimidating. __ EDIT: I FORGOT THE BAND TAN I’M A FOOL. Let’s all just pretend it’s there. Tag List Below:
