Rand Williams I played this in 4th grade stupid, everyone can play it, unless you have no good band education. And people who talk about how cool the bari sax part, it sucks, trust me I play alto sax, and the bari was a few seats away from me, his part sucked. Bari is also the easiest saxophone to play, as you don't do much with syncopation/rhythms in most music compared to other instruments. Baritone players in middle/high school usually are bad players, or bad altos that just want to get into bands with little competition against their luck.

When my band played this, my band director snuck into the railyard of my city and stole three railway ties to use as percussion. He forgot to sand them all the way down, unfortunately. In the middle of Foundry our percussionist cut herself on a sharp edge of the railway tie and blood immediately began to seep all over her white dress out of this gigantic gash on her arm. She never stopped playing though! 😁

Preferably, use train tracks. Must have no definable tone differences. Clank!" Amazing composition work indeed!

Last year, my 8th-grade band was chosen to play this at a Midfest type event (I think it was called Georgia state or something because that's where we are playing) and we had worked our asses off getting this song right. Any effort we put into our other 2 songs we put 10 fold into Foundry. The bass parts were so excited that a song let them go all out and get the melody (I'm a bass clarinet so I especially understand the restraint some songs give us) all of the melody party were almost as excited due to there amazing sounding parts, and of course, our percussion were bouncing off the walls at the fact they got to try to make part of a car, some metal bowls, and other metallic objects sound rhythmic. People actually practiced, especially H, yall know the part. We absolutely blew threw LGPE (a type of judging event for those who don't know) with a superior score. We were so hyped about going, we practiced day in day out until a week before we were going to get to play it on stage in front of hundreds of people. However, as luck would have it, that 1 week before Covid hit and not only school but the event also got canceled. I know this might seem pretty boring to a lot of people but hearing this song brings back the fact that we just nearly missed our chance to play at a huge event. By no means am I commenting this to brag or ask for pity points, I guess you could just say I'm pretty salty about the whole thing and I kinda just want to get this out there as almost a comfort to those who lost something during Covid. We've all lost something important so I guess you're not alone. I'm guessing no one will see this seeing as I'm commenting 9 years after this video came out, however, if you did find this and have made it through this exceedingly long comment, thanks for reading it and I hope the world treats you well.

Flower pots seems likes a better option than metallic cooking bowls. I played this, and it was quite the adventure to find a technique and stick that would make enough sound to be noticeable. I ended up using marching sticks held on the wrong side and a grip that looked like a thumbs-down in order to whack upwards and hit the rim in a way that created a rimshot-esque sound. Fun in the percussion section!

Contrary to popular belief, never in the history of the world have there been horns. They are a figment of your imagination, and an illusion. But at least you tried to make contact.

This was honestly one of my favourite pieces to play. I did this in maybe eighth grade as an alto sax and it was such a good vibe. I think this was one of the songs we learned later, but it was so cool that we wanted to play it for the concert, even if the end was a trainwreck lol

First clarinet was just so fun because you literally were not left out of any part. You played almost with every section at least once throughout the song. And I enjoyed skipping back and forth between low and high parts.

This song is currently the best song I’ve played. We’ve played The Last Stagecoach heist which we thought would be the best song we’d play for a while (we played it in 8th grade) and even with no other song coming close to it, this song probably beats it. We (Freshmen Band) are playing this with the Concert Band (JV Band) on our D.C. trip. Just a fun little story for the comment searchers of the world

I've played this song only three times in my life. Once in seventh grade for a concert on clarinet. Once in eighth grade for a band competition on tuba, in which my band won firsr place. And once more in Freshman year as a symphonic band piece. I may have only played it a few times, but I could listen to it a thousand times

well nasty and trombone is a wonderful combination. never seen the music but if I had to guess it would mean...well get nasty! not sure how else to explain it. get RHONKUS...not sure if thats how you spell it. might not even be a word but a lot of band directors say it. play that part out. growl maybe? dunno. if you tell me where in the song this is i can help more
