Does your band work the whole year.. Or does it really have a "Off Season"
What is done from January till May...?
 
JSU works year around. We have symphonic band, concert band, orchestra, jazz bands I. and II. and percussion/woodwind ensembles.
And those who are on scholarships (which is usually majority of the band) are required to participate in either symphonic or concert band.
 



Good info. Didn't know that. Helps to keep 'em in good music shape and it helps to solidify cohesion throughout the offseason and comraderie within the BOOM:tup:

:nod: :nod:

And many students are usually involved in more than one band and/or ensemble during the spring semester.
During my years, I was in symphonic band and woodwind ensemble.
 
SU will have concert band, jazz band and the such. But of course its about to be parade season, sometimes more important than football season becuz thats where the band earns its keep $$$$$$ And of course pep band for b-ball season.
 
We have symphonic band, concert band, gospel orchestra, jazz bands, stage band, pep band and woodwind ensembles. The marching band also comes back for different events.

P.S. I forgot about "down the hall" Jukebox members know what I'm talking about. :lol: :lol: :lol:

At the 'S', if you are on scholarship or not, if you plan on marching in the upcoming season, you BETTER be in an ensemble. They don't want any cloosed minded musicians.

LOL. You are right. You think that is bad.....when we were crabs we had a song for assistant dir. Chester White(rest his soul). It was the SU fight song modified for Mr. White. We would sing it on Bus 3(crab bus) and White would be :angry:
Ah the good ole days. I never rode Bus 2.....since I pledged KKPSI in the Spr after crabbing...I was on Bus 1(frat bus) with the black man for the rest of my years in the Juke.......now we got some stories for your arse on how we would mess with Doc on band trips.

Still can hear him say " I wish I knew who said that, I would zip yo arse!"
