General thread for discussion, lore, competitions, etc.

Totally excited for this season, should get some pretty good scores in band and corp, I especially love my corp's show this season!

Same!!!

I'm shooting for the 100 in drumline this year. It'll be tough though

You’ll definitely get there before I do. My Drumline always has been the weakest group.

This season I’m premiering my drumline and color guard. Doing a lot of fundraising, but still going to compete to get these groups some experience in their first season! Hoping to get my marching band competing well into the 60’s by the end of the season!

That's great JStutsman! And as someone who did fundraising while still simultaneously competing (for almost 5 years!), I can assure you that it definitely is a route that works in the long run. Keep up the good work!

I don't think I'm going to have any big jumps like I did last season, I'll be fundraising too, but I'm hoping to equal last season's output, at best. I spent waaaayy too much on staff during week 2 last season so I could catch up to everybody and compete, which got me a medal, but left me unable to have a sizeable contest this season...

I’m still hopeful to win Division 3 this year. Last time we really competed... I placed 4th in the finals for band and 6th for Corps.... so it’s possible I think.

Holy smokes I'm getting so many flashbacks to my premier season. So many groups from S65 are coming back. I feel FMA old.

Alright, with all the groups coming back this season, I'm gonna give it my all this season to make sure rehearsal happens. No more missing days!

Check out my show announcement in press releases. I'm somewhat back ladies and gentlemen.

welcome back STrad. i'm also somewhat back. I hope I can do okay. It won't be a 100 lol

Let's gooooo, soo many returning players for this season!

I predict a lot of shake ups

The FJRMB Fans are adding extra rehearsals and sectionals in order to try to remain competitive in division 3 marching band this season! Hoping to make this a special season for our group!

A bit disappointed in the amount of contests my marching band is being declined for. I think some groups will be sorry they didn’t get to compete with us earlier when it comes time for D3 Finals...

Hey! I have 11 spots open still for my MB contest on the 11th!

You have a lot of competitions. More than my second season. Every year you're gonna be declined to atleast some. Some people do it first come first serve, or have strict influence limits (mine are somewhat low, I get declined to 1-4 competitions still)

Hoping that my groups can remain in the medal hunt this season. I'm getting married at noon on Saturday so I'm not sure I'll be able to rehearse the way I have been!

congrats corndog :-)
