What up, fellow SWACPage percussionists!

What are the numbers for your drumline this year? Is it getting bigger or smaller?

I just recently saw a few lines from some of the premiere bands, and they've gotten a little smaller last year, and this just lead me to asking this question. I already know about UAPB, and they are almost as big as the 2000 season.

Holla back!
 
i have to give it to the FT at TSU on their size they got bigger this year and they be holding it down. so holla back

Try to be a little specific; how many numbers are there in each subsection? (Snares, Multi-tenors, tenors, cymbals, basses)
 
It is the B-O-X here.......Marching Storm PVAMU.......... 8-10 cymbals........12 snares.......6-8 tenors.....5 quints.....5 basses.......That pretty much wraps it up for the hottest section for years in the SWAC........IT takes a real man to be in the B--O-- X..........:redhot: :redhot: :redhot:

12 snares? I thought the BOX only does up to 10, and I could've sworn you all had marched 6 basses in the 2001 season.

Mr. Mastermind.....We, The BOX, has all new equipment this year....Courtesy or Pearl Drums.....The Premier equipment we formerly marching with, yes, we had a maximum of ten snares now the max is 12 and we have marched 12 snares every game this season.....We have 6 new Pearl Bass Drums but of course we just dont put anyone on a drum just to fill up the extra equipment......Funk Train-TxSU, do you understand that......11 bass drums for a 150 piece band??? C,mon and get seroius:D :D :D :redhot: :redhot:
 
I was hoping you all did get some new equipment this year. I just thought that the BOX would stick to getting just Premier instead of Pearl, though. Were you all sponsored by Premier at one point, or did you just purchase their equipment at the time? What color shells are you all marching with? Hopefully it isn't plain white, 'cause I see everyone marching with white drums.

I haven't seen the Ocean yet, but word on the 5th Quarter is that their numbers are actually bigger than 150 (I'm thinking 200-250 or maybe 300), which is probably the reason why the Funk Train has huge numbers.

By the way, PLEEEEEASE don't call me "Mr."; I'm not that old yet! :lol:
 
Just in case you can't catch the link, here's what their drums look like:

Snare drum in Blue and White

Tenor drum in Blue and Black with Pinstripe heads

Bass drum in all white

Of course they make equipment just for pipe bands, but if they had marching equipment now, just imagine the sound and the look for the BOX!

First off the question was asked about the various drumlines in the swac. The comment that you made was out of line. As far as the 11 bass drums that's old news. The way you commented was as if you were smacking. Stromie was just defending his/her school. SO don't get upset if he/she strikes back.

In regards to the dance routine who cares. That was the only thing good about PV's show anyway. As far as over all your show left alot to be desired ....

Now this is crazy. That's way too many. Wouldn't this many drown out the band?
