A Short History of Marching Band Cults.
Why are we like this? Good question! Let's start in the beginning.
By the beginning, I mean middle school, by the way. Middle school - when you start embracing the fact that band is your life now and you cant escape it! All your friends have either left you or joined band because you dont have a life!
Then, high school rolls around. Most of middle school band wants their friends back at this point, so they abandon band and do, idk, cheerleading or smth for popularity!
Then there are the diehard band nerds. These people stay in band through high school. They, near the conclusion of band camp, are admitted into the Marching Band Cult.
A cult is extreme for this, you say? Ah, that's where you're wrong! We regularly worship our Marching Band Gods and pray that we dont face plant. We hold a sacrafice of one trumpet or flute player a year, as their sections are too crowded anyway. We bleed for band, especially when our instruments are wanted for attempted murder, but we love our children. Most of our instruments are named really weirdly. We have led the new ones into this trap.
The ones who esca- leave think that they made a mistake joining in the first place, but how wrong they are. As you join us, the attention whistle sounds, a circle forms in the background, you are home.

Serious question. What is the best instrument?
So we were plotting one of our new shows, and I'm marching normally, but some of the flutes go up to this one other flute next to me in one set and asks why she has to cross 3 and a half yard lines.
3 AND A HALF YARD LINES. IN. 12. COUNTS.
So I did some math and that's about a 3.4 to 5 step if anyone was wondering.
And no matter how much all of the flutes (and mellos, who do the same thing) are struggling. It is hilarious to watch.
ITS LIKE THEYRE PRANCING ACROSS THE FIELD IT GREAT.
