JAZZER Posted July 5, 2015 Share Posted July 5, 2015 (edited) Yes I've known brass players who have done just that... ...So if a snare just marched in his spot...but didn't play...would that KILL their score?...or what exactly is the reason?....I'm not a drummer...so I am very curious as the reason... There was an end Crown snare that marched and didn't play for a bit..........but, thanks to a judge, he got back at it!! :) Edited July 5, 2015 by JAZZER Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Quick thinking by the judge. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BRASSO Posted July 5, 2015 Share Posted July 5, 2015 (edited) There was an end Crown snare that marched and didn't play for a bit..........but, thanks to a judge, he got back at it!! :) That happened 2 years ago with a BAC snare too if I recall.... his snare fell in the Quarters ( or Semi's ) when a strap just snapped off or some such. ' Sounds like Boston got their snare replacement now.... and that seemed pretty quick. Edited July 5, 2015 by BRASSO 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
2muchcoffeeman Posted July 5, 2015 Share Posted July 5, 2015 (edited) . Its one thing to pick up the snare drum parts. But its quite another to learn those drum parts, play in total unison with the other snares. Indeed. Learning the notes is one thing. Performing them as part of a moving ensemble is quite another. To learn the notes, you have to train your hands. To play within the group, you have to train your ears, then link them up to your hands.

Glad I was a horn guy. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Let's just say the snare who left has a few friends he needs to rethink their friendship status. The corps showed class and voted him back on board and he's back on the bus. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Liahona Posted July 8, 2015 Author Share Posted July 8, 2015 Let's just say the snare who left has a few friends he needs to rethink their friendship status. The corps showed class and voted him back on board and he's back on the bus. So your saying the snare that left...is now back?.....LOL ...there has got to be more to this story...but probably best to not air in public I'd imagine....

Ghost Posted July 8, 2015 Share Posted July 8, 2015 I'm still trying to figure out if there were only six snares last night. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
