Here's mine:

I came in to the peak of the Miles Era, as I now call it, where the sophomores gave him h-e-double-hockey-sticks. Needless to say, I hated the guy. Everyone did.

Sophomore year came along, and I hated him more, but I began to respect why he yelled a tiny bit.

Junior year, and he became absolutely no fun, PIPING IN MUSIC DURING FOOTBALL GAMES and all that. However, I understood at the end of that year how he worked.

Now I'm a senior (I first posted on this forum when I was a late-sophomore, I think), and Miles left the band during the first week of band camp. On the first day of school, about four weeks later, we find out that he had "retired", which most kids believed meant "he got sacked". I then met our new director, Mr. Boren, who is MUCH more fun. He let us play in the stands, let us be more active in the band, even encouraged former band members to rejoin band! Now, in the era of the "Boren Supremacy", as my dad named it, I'm enjoying band much more with a new director.

Any thoughts?

Not in a school band, but in my marching band

It's not affiliated with the school system

But yea, we got a new teacher

And new major and all that jazz

And they started running it like a military facility

I mean, yea, sometimes we goof off too much

But we're pre-teens to teens, we have a right

I think some people don't get

That those kinda things are for fun

It's not like, our career or something

back in 7th grade we had a fairly old band director...then he anounnced he wasnt going to be here next year...but he would return for his last year after that....

during my first band camp (summer of starting 8th grade) we had an awsome band director...at our last football game, however, some band members got into an arguement and then he left half way through the year...

after band season...we got another new band director who was very nice...he became our band director till my 2nd year of marching band...now we have our original band director back...

thats it for my story...so yea...i went through having an original band director then getting two new ones then getting the old one back...lolz...next year i cant wait for though...

~*animemusicdemon*~

the first one...he was great. arranged the music, wrote the drill and practically did everything...he quit the year before i was going to join...the second...he was my eighth grade science and homeroom teacher, he was ok, even lead the unit to win champs, but soon quit afterwards...ah the third...its like safe to say that everyone in my band HATES him, he just isn't like what were used to...granted i've really only been under his direction, but i did see how the first one was, and he is an AWESOME concert/symphonic band director...i'd rather have him back
