i am a member of a high school marching band, and this movie portrays EXACTLY how i feel towards the concept of marching band. they are very helpful in aiding you raise money for your school marching band by allowing you to use their movie as a screening fund raiser. you get to keep half the profit you make. i love this movie, and i think it's destined to be shown in schools across America. i love it and i give it a 10/10. if you ever have the chance to see this movie, do it!!! you will never feel the same about marching band after you see it. and if you see it and then ever hear someone say that marching band is easy, i hope you tell them otherwise, because i know first hand that it isn't, and i am grateful to this movie for showing the world that.
