This was my favorite song to play in grade school in our steel drum band back in the 90s lol. The school closed recently I wonder where the drums ended up :( Hard to find a band that has the whole set with 6 drum bass, 4 drum tenor bass, and 3 drum cello.

Totally awesome!

Got to play this earlier this year for the first time and it is as much fun to play as it is to listen to. Whitacre is brilliant, well done band!

Ive been trying to find a good xylo part to listen to for Molly on the shore. We have to play it and I'm terrified 😭

I approve this message

Can you tell me where I can this arrangement? I'd love to do it with my ensemble but can't seem to find it anywhere. Thanks!

This is the exact same composition of the National Anthem that we played in high school. Who is the composer of this version?

Excelent

My band is playing this song and I can only hope it sounds as good as and is as hilarious as this version is

Remind me of this comment in 5 years I’ll be 18 and out of marching band to see if we actually played this one of the years

Most iconic sound to hear your dad screaming too after a bad play and they cut to commercials

Amazing, simply amazing.

wtf???!!!

Hawaiian Hills Cop!

random guy in the middle of the song, "shut the f*#k up"

Sounds nothing like the actual theme 😹

Tuning is very important as well as balance

Playing this at Macy's day parade! Come check out brownsburg marching band in New York 2021!

The guy in the Dino costume

Green Day was originally called sweet children not sweet child.

hey how's band class going for you rn?

This is my favorite song to do on stands. It isn’t that hard but we have to basically sight read 30 songs in one book and never forget our halftime show song which is like 3 different movements. 😭😭😭

How many members

I just started my first year of marching band and it felt so short because of damn covid, so I can’t wait for next year!

Shoutout to the trumpet that hit the high E

surprised a band this big doesn't have a front ensemble

Towards the beginning and a few spots here and there had some articulation and dynamic issues but other than that great job.

You rocked it. Keep jamming.

*insert some questionable noises*

I-... that's... that's not correct.

I went to uwa (university of west Alabama ) and we played this

He said the the original band name was sweet child, it was actually sweet children

So nice

Love that flute solo!!

Imagine playing high school football and your whole team is coming out while the band is playing this that would be so lit 🔥

AMAZING

Sueño con mi banda algun dia asi... Mérida Venezuela!
