SCHOOL BAND: YR TICKET TO POPULARITY

[defrog]

Via Mostly Forbidden Zone:



How times change.

Or maybe not. Apparently you get to perform simulated sexual intercourse in high school bands, if you believe people like Frederica Wilson.

Somehow I doubt it. If that was true, high school band would be a lot more popular than it is.

DISCLAIMER: I’m assuming the school band is as “cool” today as it was when I was in high school. Which is to say, not really, no.

FULL DISCLOSURE: I was never in the School Band (no electric guitar section, you see).

Smells like teen spirit,

This is dF

Somewhere in my collection of actual vinyl records is a sampler put out in the '70s by a company that specialized in high school band arrangements. The reason I've hung onto it all these years? A marching band arrangement of Helen Reddy's "I Am Woman" and a school concert band arrangement of selections from Rick Wakeman's "Six Wives of Henry VIII". When I find it, I'll digitize both and upload them to the intarwebs. Just because.
