Agreed on the lines. Dress-center-dress! (beat beat)

Totally in agreement. My band did really well in our day, and we won lots of awards, but wow - we never did anything this badass.

...is your team video games?

All the Zelda and Mario and Tetris made up for it.

There were people in my high school who actively rallied for Final Fantasy shows.

I woulda rather have done Metal Gear Solid 2, Harry Gregson-Williams's stuff is tailor-made for marching bands. Fresno State University's band had a great Antz show they did for a while.
