This song is way more badass hearing and playing it in person. The percussion is so much more powerful and intense and the song just sounds more patriotic.

[@haiileymariie3067]

i agree, especially when your in the band hearing it all close up, it's amazing when you can just play and hear other people playing and feel it

[@myersbob7517]

I know it's so fun to play on band

[@GabeGM3]

As a percussionist I feel honored and yes it is EXTREMELY FUN being a percussionist because u learn 10 times faster than everyone else and u have the beat tempo and everything so yes it is better than the saxophones

[@toothache1385]

We have rly good percussionists and i love hearing snare in the beginnings its AMAZING

Bruh, only the best band in my school gets to play it ;-;

Im in middle school we had to play this

😮

[@MF-dz7cp]

I play a clarinet. I'm a freshman and we had to play this for veterans day. I absolutely sucked at it

[@Rocks_Edits_Animations]

Nahh cause this might have been the only song(other than excelsior fanfare and March slav) I was good at 😭 and I'm in 8th

[@Roy-cu5bv]

I feel you

[@TheSymphonium-CTYT]

The clarinet part was easy for me since 7th grade when we played this. Nobody in our band could play cut time b

[@MF-dz7cp]

@@Rocks_Edits_Animations I was only good at playing slower songs. I'm in 11th grade now but I'm not in band now so now all I do is play guitar at home sometimes when I'm bored

[@crocogator7720]

Im a 7th grade clarinet and i had to play this😂

[@Mateo-xe8ps]

I play the flute and my band played this for a competition and got gold with distinction so I like this song a lot

I am in marching band and one of our football games this hear was litterly the day before 9/11 this year and in honor of 9/11 we added this song to part of our pregame show (or it was marches of the armed forces I cant remember) and they got someone who played bagpipes to play amazing grace and then we did like normally star spangled banner and did who run it when the football players came out. And our pregame is Georgia on My Mind and Can you feel it by the Jacksons, and do star spangled banner once we wait for colors to come on feild and once they leave the feild we get a click, click, click and go to out tunnel and do star spangled banner. But the dude who played bag pipes sounded really good and this was a fun thing to leearn and only have 1 or 2 weeks (cant remeber but I think it was the week of or the week before because we got it at one of our long practices which is a Tuesday and just practiced it those 2 days) to get it remembered but that was what we used to do a tribute to 9/11. Also I play clarinet (the best instrument other than front ensemble/pit they are called either on or six mainly tenor sax). But for whoever served for us thank you for your work.

@@thatbitofmoss the competitions we have been to is rebel regiment and this other one I can’t remember (one of them (I mix up I know which one if I remember the others name but it’s 2am right now) we got grand champion) this year and last year we only went to battle on the boarder and we got 6th place

[@_-.alexiss.-_1404]

@@Niko-shot pretty much I said we played that song I disliked because it’s a tricky time sig and the tempo and rhythm does some weird stuff and like we played it for marching band for a tribute to 9/11 and we were only given it like a week ahead (by that I mean the week before we played it and we only have 3 practices 2 short, 1 long and the long one is the only one we have sectionals and truly work on music but still worked on show music)

[@goneparonormal8046]

We played these for a veterans day program at school and when we played the navy's song i thought of my great grandfather who served in the navy during WW2. He died back in 2017 from old age.

[@Real_Gluttony69]

My grandfather died at 97 in 2019

In our school, every year the 7th graders have to play this for the school. I remember the district memories of playing the glockenspiel part and actually doing it right

[@mr.klunee4103]

It's basically Marches of The Armed Forces but for flex-band, and no Air Force song. It has the same introduction and ending and everything.

[@gamingwizardgames6527]
