NeoCervantes II Posted August 6, 2009 Share Posted August 6, 2009 Though I forget during the other 364 days a year, I am fully disappointed one day a year when I am going through the I&E results and see the results for Woodwind Captions. I have a Masters degree in the performance of a woodwind instrument, but I marched in a Drum and Bugle Corps to play a BRASS instrument! If I wanted to hear the greatest flute playing ever, I would go to the Flute Loops Convention, and listen to the likes of Tutti-Flutie or some such. Get these woodwind captions off the books. P.S.: Do they give rings for I&E? P.S.S.: Not sure if I did the poll right . . . here goes nothing . . . Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Drumcorpsfan471 Posted August 6, 2009 Share Posted August 6, 2009 They give medals for I&E. But yeah, if I played a woodwind instrument in real life why not show it off? Now granted I am VERY opposed to them being on the field, marching. I&E is fine with me though... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DCImonkey Posted August 6, 2009 Share Posted August 6, 2009 I'm not a woodwind player I've never competed in I&E I have never cared about I&E I don't care about woodwinds in I&E I don't care about any other instrument in I&E I do not like green eggs and ham, I do not like them Sam I Am!

NeoCervantes II Posted August 6, 2009 Author Share Posted August 6, 2009 So it looks like we are fairly evenly split on whether or not to continue WW I&E, but if an when the majority of us won a WW I&E we would not tell our friends? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bob J Posted August 6, 2009 Share Posted August 6, 2009 Oh, I would tell my friends, but I'm not big on rings... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ScoutSop08 Posted August 6, 2009 Share Posted August 6, 2009 Why get them out of I&E? These are musicians that love the activity enough to work their butts off to learn another instrument just to march. Why not give them the oppurtunity to execute their true musical prowess on their primary instrument in a Solo and Ensemble setting? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
