About
I love color guard and marching band!
(By the way, EWP stands for Eyes With Pride!)

North Star Drum Corps
Group Description
Level: 48
Influence: 42716
Hometown: Chicago, Illinois
League: FAME
League History: GEDC 33-42 My drum corps and I reached an unscalable wall. We tried to climb over but it's impossibly tall. It's a million feet wide and a billion yards up, we tried to march through it but it wasn't enough. There were words on that wall that were scattered about- words like difficult, impossible, fear, and self doubt. Sometimes we felt like we wanted to quit. That wall was much bigger than we'd like to admit. But we'd pick ourselves up and break down our parts. We'd drill in our moves till we knew them by heart. The judges would judge us show after show, the wall's shadow upon us wherever we'd go. But when state arrived the words were not taunting, The wall was still there but it wasn't as daunting. In the end it was us that the audience crowned- we made a wall of our own, a wall of our sound. -13th Chair Trombone Player (A poet who writes poems about band)
