Boy Im glad that ill be in college next year...............<P>theres always something wrong with your tenor partner in high school. its a fact of life. unless youre the only one, but then you dont get any practice on playing clean.<P>------------------<BR>I am drummer woman........hear me RRRROOOOOOLLLLL!!!

What's wrong with my tenor partner or the music? Well, my tenor partner has no dedication what so ever. Absolutely none and that's all you can say about. The music, well the music was watered down cause he could'nt hack it with the music that was already written. It sucks. Bad!<P>------------------<BR>TENORS RULE!!!

Hehe that does suck. I hate it when you have to water down a cool part cause "the other guy" cant hack it. So it will be funny when you get out there next year and one of you has 1As and the other 4As, hehe the crowd will be quivering in... surprise from the tonal differance.

In my case its the other girl that can't hack it. Makes me extremly angry because it was supposed to be just me in the beginning but then she got added to the tenor line for no reason!! This is no joke, she can't play open rolls, she can't hold the drums up for more than 2 min without whining, she can't march and play, she can't memorized music well, and she just straight up sucks at playing! the tenor part was really cool with all sorts of sweeps and crossovers, but then we added her, and I lost not only that, but all the rolls too! Oh well, i'm going to Oklahoma State University next year and there is where the tenors kick butt!<P>------------------<BR>Jerek<BR>PCN Drumline<BR>OSU Drumline

Shes putting the female race down!! oh well....there are rotten apples in every bushel............<P>usually females are more dedicated than that.....theres something goin on there. are you guys treating her bad?????<P>------------------<BR>I am drummer woman........hear me RRRROOOOOOLLLLL!!!

Nope, I try all the time to help her, she just doesn't want to dedicate herself, She was even gone the last week of rehearsals before our biggest contest for a church field trip. She came back the same day of the contest and everyone says that its ok... It was horrible becuase it sounded <s>[b]snugglebunny[/b]</s> [color:"red"]a lot</font> better without her and everyone told me that. I've never said anything negative to her or about her, just that she needs to practice more. She just says that her parents don't like it that she always plays, or she says she has to practice swimming. If she put half the effort into drumline as she did swimming she could play open rolls...but she can't<P>------------------<BR>Jerek<BR>PCN Drumline<BR>OSU Drumline

Sounds like to me that drumming isnt one of this girl's prime passions in life, so how did she get on the line in the first place? Wait. Its high school--i know where youre coming from---dont answer that. I doubt she'll ever get any better. She sounds uninterested. Shes not driven. Have you tried the "youre never gonna amount to anything!! Youll never have what it takes to hang with the big boys!" tactic? Lemme tell you, it worked like a charm for me. I laugh in their faces now............<P>------------------<BR>I am drummer woman........hear me RRRROOOOOOLLLLL!!!

Wow drummerwoman, so compassionate! I wish you would do me the honor of laughing in my face Hehe when did females become a new race? Oh yea, when they turned 16. Forgot sorry.... [img]http://www.drumlines.org/ubb/images/icons/wink.gif[/img]
