Ill never forget the day our band director gave us this music. I will also never forget the day I played this in front of my school for halftime at a football game. My poor director had no idea what he had done until after football season lol.

[@FastnOut]

Poor soul

[@esaiperez2787]

I arrange for marching band and percussion and I can understand why the battery is so “simple” to a lot of people. On one hand, yes it’s really easy and can be a lot more exciting to people, but on the other hand, this specific arrangement is clearly going for an exact replica of what’s going on in the actual song it’s based off of. I do this a lot myself when arranging for marching band stand tunes, however I give the multiple options of “advanced percussion” battery and “song replica” battery. Most people shoot for the fun stuff but there are directors out there who have purchased the easier stuff because it sounds more tame for something like a stand tune. All that summed up, this version is just the percussion in the song converted to drumline and I can appreciate what they did with it.

[@lucscott3631]

I like this comment a lot. It kinda explains how I feel about stuff. Good on you for writing both options. Keep doing what you do!

I’m the same way with most of my arrangements

[@NTDEnder]

We played this for half of the football games until people from the stands complained about the song and its origins. Man those were some good times!

[@vexologist]

doubting this is true but what are the song’s ‘origins?’ lol

[@NTDEnder]

@@vexologist People watched the music video.

[@samuelsaucedo6093]

@@NTDEnder lol

[@NTDEnder]

Let me rephrase what I mean by “its origins:” I was referring to the official music video. Some parents were calling out the school band for playing something “inappropriate,” and the band director didn’t want to deal with any problems in his first year here and stopped playing it during games.

[@FastnOut]

@@NTDEnder that's the parents problem if they watched the music video.

[@emanuelgonzalez7213]

My band just arranged it ourselves, honestly the main issue i have with this one is the really boring drum line stuff and lack of bass

[@gabeybaby_18]

Our band did the same thing and I totally agree

Seems like the whole song

[@malkshootsairsballout676]

Its just not the tuba im a bari sax player and if u see at the beginning it shows the tuba/bari sax/etc with it

[@phoenixmcgrew2964]

I wish they added a split to the closer for a lower octave

This reminds me when Industry baby was the big hit last July, just about everybody knew this song better than their marching show

I always like the bassline in this song, also i love doing the tuba part with my bass trombone, super fun!!

[@thomasearnest3261]

I love every time we play this in pep band, so simple, yet so fun.

[@derickharless682]

0:58 is my favorite part because this arrangment needs more bass so the tubas being there makes that part good

[@mk76rock]

[@InsaneVibz]

Sooo exited to play this in the stands

[@adamcollester2655]

This publisher puts out really good winds and brass scores.... but the percussion? So watered down and uninteresting, I don't understand why it's so beginner. Especially for a Grade 3-4, it could definitely be a lot more interesting.

[@Aduysvmncmkouyf]

First off a beginner can’t do this, second the rhythms aren’t hard.

[@adamcollester2655]

@@Aduysvmncmkouyf You prove my point. This is a grade 3-4 piece, it's not for beginners. But the percussion parts are written for beginners, BECAUSE the rhythms aren't hard. The percussion parts need to match the wind parts in difficult, adding more rudiments and technical sections to challenge the players.

[@Txdcblues]

Been waiting for this!

[@dodgecharger5040]
