It might but my band can't play it well, so I've never heard it in person.

[@proxygray4072]

The pep band at my school plays this as one of their songs and they're amazing. Too bad i'm stuck as a cowbell player

[@jonblack8950]

This is too slow for my band! This is definitely our best pep band song and we play way faster than that. I’m happy I found this song as I’m collecting songs my band has ever played

[@Jelly006]

We played this and the people at the football game said “EYE EYE EYE” at the beginning, I loved it.

[@bummer8631]

So does my school

Honestly you’re not wrong

[@carter1807]

Yea that’s how it is when you play an auxiliary part in band.

[@devinconway4512]

We played this in our homecoming parade and also in our half time show. It’s so fun to play for no reason at all.

[@zanmolecules4105]

100% agreed

[@webduelist]

It’s because it plays a wide octave range, dynamic range, and the voice moves around. It’s a extremely well put together piece of music

[@ferret9263]

That riff is badass enough on guitar, but even better on trombone!

I will never get sick of palying this song, we're playing it in marching band and as a clarinet I don't get many cool parts but I adore playing it soooo much

Playing clarinet in hs was so much better than 2-8. Same stupid songs every year. I can still play Rockin Robin by heart.

[@evec9666]

Even though I'm a woodwind (clarinet) I'm just glad that some of the low brass section gets something more than long whole notes

[@ashlythornton5166]

We played this in marching band and we had so much fun. You had the percussionist dancing and beating on the drums. You had the low brass playing out for once. We had so much fun that year.

[@ashleighcastillo5482]

just got it for this years marching season and our band is so pumped to play it even while just practicing we've done everything you just described and its already a blast

[@comedyyyyyyyyyyyy]

the person who screams "ALL ABOOAAAAARD HAHAHAHAHA!" does it so amazingly like the way the person does the laugh is so spot on

[@willbailey8245]

[@jessecastor2579]

I wish we played this arrangement we have a shorty of this

[@StormtrooperTK--ic8pb]

As a trombone player we always try to blast it as loud as we can put of spite of our instructor saying “not enough energy” it’s a habit I haven’t broken to this day.

[@sammiehopkins9408]

We played this is middle school and we had two 8th grade bands and we did the "all aboard" and "I, I, i" thing. But the kid who was supposed to say "all aboard" and laugh was in the other class and my teacher never told our class we were doing it. So like two days before the concert when we all played together and the ex-clarinet, now percussionist, high on puberty, screamed "ALLLL ABOARRD AH HA HA" all of our jaws dropped and we had to restart

[@Qsstert]

Lmao

[@Olivia-oj1im]

For my high school band I play pit and we hold our cymbals like hi hats for the snares and they hit the Cymbals and it sounds sorta like a train engine going “chuggachugga” it’s really fun. We sometimes wave at the other teams band with our phone lights and they wave back. This is why I love band it’s so cool and everybody, even the other teams band, is super sweet.

[@montywolf1325]

This is probably one of my favorite pep songs to play

[@spotkitty]

For our pep band we say "I, I, I" in the 2nd measure and "Wooooooo" in the 4th measure

Am I the only one who immediately listens for the cadence after the playing is complete from marching?

[@emeliamorton5109]

I have to play the Cadence and it’s hard to do the cadence before and after because I’m worried about the other song 😂

[@jasonburroughs7544]

What is the cadence called

[@KaydenceRussell-l3y]

I had played this in jazz band 2024 8th grade and we went to the capital of Nebraska to play this song, our teacher had us do the AYE AYE AYE too.
