  • "Nearly ten minutes later, Runnels yells out, "Back outside!" Some beg to stay inside in the air-conditioned room; Runnels puts on his glasses and walks out the door."

    this is my favorite paragraph so far lol

    "This is your band, it ain't my band," says Runnels. "It's on everyone here; if you want to be good, it's on you to step up."

    I have heard this TOO MANY times in the past 7 years. But it is so true

    But good luck to both programs this season, just one thing to remember. Everyone person in the band program should have PRIDE. With PRIDE, you can achieve things you only dream about.
  • Yeah I just picked it up at Wing Stop lol Congrats to both organizations, things looking good.

  • I think in order to be a band director, you must have a crazy certificate LOL. I think we all say some of the same things to the kids.
    In actuality when you think about the expectations of an HISD Band Director, it is crazy. But I know for one, our bands would make a hell of a reality show. There's never a dull moment in our band room.
  • I read it when I was at work. Its one of the reasons I like HP! Congrads to both Programs!
