A new school year has started. And with a new school year comes so many good things. New classes with new teachers (thank God!!), new chances for better grades, better outlook on life. And most important, FOOTBALL/MARCHING BAND SEASON!!!!!!!!
I will never ever ever forget my first game. Page Northern home. Yes, we had to march with the Page band. Yes we cut our halftime show in half because of that. But it was still my first game, and it was better than I had ever imagined.
The stadium lights glaring off of my lyre. The crowd going wild while we marched. The feeling of utter ownership as we watched our team crush Page like a little bug. The hoarse throats as we marched back to the bandroom late that night.
I won't forget the second game, either. Dudley Northern home, score 36-7 in Northern's favor. Most of the band went to Tyler's house after the game for a party that lasted into the night.
Me and several of the guys walked up the road to get another friend, and then came back and had a hilarious game of ping pong. So hilarious that at one point 3 of us were laying on the table helplessly laughing at absolutely nothing.
Yes, this is the Nighthawk Marching Band, and you're jealous cause you're missing out.
We just have one question for you: What the hell is the football team doing on our field?
