TGUN Posted October 1, 2016 Report Share Posted October 1, 2016 Last time I checked the band reportedly was to play while the.opposing team was on offense.... However it seems that there is a change in football protocol that I am not aware of..... Your own band blows their lungs out thanks to the directive of the band director while your team is on offense....and then the team has to call a time out... Anyone else have or seen this new brilliant style of band leadership? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Anyone else have or seen this new brilliant style of band leadership? Seems I recall a tweet a couple years ago from Summits band Twitter acct with a picture of your football team on the field saying something to the extent of "hey what's the football team doing on the band field". There in of itself lies the problem!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
theroyz71 Posted October 2, 2016 Report Share Posted October 2, 2016 I always thought the bands were supposed to stop playing during plays but that is obviously not the case. It should be. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BooWhoWiseMan Posted October 2, 2016 Report Share Posted October 2, 2016 Don't know what your talking about..... But if true acceptance of that mentality is pretty much dead....I hope so. Seems like every time we turn around football is being attacked in some form or fashion. Hard to have a great atmosphere of coaches and in this case band directors are pulling in opposite directions.

False. Band play isn't any different than fans with cowbells or other noise makers Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
