Q:My color guard has three members, we NEED more members! the problem is my band director wont let anyone in unless theyre in band, orchestra, or percussion. choir doesnt count. how would i gte people to join?

It’s weird that your band director wont let anyone join unless they’re already in the program. I’ve never heard of that! Have the three of you tried talking to him and trying to get him more interested in color guard, and obtaining new members? Having set auditions with a time and date and announce it at the school and have the band director being there so he can meet the kids would probably help. Also, maybe if you contact your local middle schools that go into your high school and see if you can get kids from those bands into the guard. Because, technically they would have been in band, but want to do Colorguard when they get to High School! Hope I kind of helped, sorta.

Best of luck!

Thank you, but sadly Premonition is taking the season off. You’ll see me and 5 other members of Premonition 2011 on the floor with Braddock Independent this season. <3

Dance section! I plan to submit more but this is what I have for now. No choreo, total free-styling lol that’s why it’s not very good! But edit as you please, my sabre will come later (it will be choreographed). Thank you so much for extending the deadline!

Tumblr Independent is an internet colorguard. We get together and spin the same routine, and splice up all the participants videos to make one giant colorguard performance from all over the globe!

How advanced should we be to be in Tumblr Independent?
The skill range for Tumblr Independent can go from Beginner to World class. Everyone is welcome in T.I.! All you have to do is learn the routine that is posted up, and submit a video of you doing the choreography!

How do I submit?
What you're going to want to do is create a YouTube account if you don't already have one. You can upload videos there ranging from 10-15 minutes in length - which for you will never really be necessary. Then you can submit the link via the submission on this blog.
Right now the easiest solution will be for me to download the video from a YouTube video downloader. If T.I goes viral enough, then I'll create a new e-mail for T.I and you guys can directly e-mail me the files.

My tapes on my flag are different than what you have. My rifle doesn't have a strap. My sabre is a different kind of sabre than yours. My cat doesn't like to be pet. Is all of this okay?
It's more than okay! All of the things that I post up are just my general technique and things like that. There is more than one way to spin a flag! You can most certainly adapt all of the things I say to something you are used to! And about your cat.... you need to get that things used to people...

Who are you? Do you teach? Have you marched?
Haha. My name is Chris.
I teach a school in Greenacres, Florida named John I. Leonard High School.
I marched Braddock Independent World in 2006 and Premonition World in 2010 and 2011.
But let's remember that this isn't about me. It's about you.

I don't have access to any equipment at all. Can I still participate?
It'll be a little hard to have you participate, but with a little creativity you'd definitely be able to! You can make up your own dance if you'd like to. You can participate by making suggestions for upcoming songs to pick. The best way for you to participate right now is by supporting. :)

How the heck did you think of this?
Uh. I dunno. It just kinda came to me. I guess we'll see where it goes. :)
