Airsoft Chat v.9 "Rabies talks about shotguns and makes us feel bad" - General

[QUOTE=The Ultimate;39869807]Fields I go to have lots of semi-only games, only support weapons are allowed full-auto bursts.[/QUOTE] Well why didn't you pick a more ergonomic weapon? M249, RPK, Stoner, they're all a lot easier to hold than an M60. Airsoft isn't about practicality. It's about grown men playing dress-up and prancing about forests, buildings and deserts with their favorite guns. Like you do. Like I do. Like everyone on this subforum does.

These people are made out of paper and it's absolutely hilarious to watch them moan about 90-degree weather while they carry around their piccolos and sip from their camelbaks.[/QUOTE] Piccolo is hard shit. It takes a lot of air and a strong ambature to keep it from sounding like shrill shit.

Which is why I disdain hicaps and p*s. They are like the press X to win of airsoft, and reduces airsoft to a game of who has a p* and who doesn't. Also DSGs are annoying as hell but I see far fewer people with them and they know how to use them responsibly. [editline]10th March 2013[/editline] I have a permanent 1 inch thick red mark on the back of my neck from carrying my sax on a strap that is little more than a band of cheap, scratchy fabric. I later started marching without the strap, and now my arms are made of adamantium. I have witnessed the fitness like no other.

Its when someone throws a hicap into the mix and holds the trigger down for dear life that it becomes a problem, which to me seems like 99% of the p*s owners I come across.

[QUOTE=YCheez;39869731]When marching band has you sprint non-stop for 8 hours with almost no water while carrying around a 6-pound instrument, you never feel pain again.[/QUOTE] Ha, six pounds? Try marching with a 30-inch bass drum in 110 degree heat.

front ensemble timpani player lyfe fuck marching band dude i hate having to sit on my stool watching people complaining about marching and have to reach down to grab my water bottle to drink from because i've nothing better to do also, i hate staying indoors when it's 90 degrees and the band is working on drill because the air conditioned band room is the worst place to be ever [img]https://sphotos-a.xx.fbcdn.net/hphotos-snc7/297639_2641749808097_906234831_n.jpg[/img] pic related me playing timpani

Partly because this one girl was let on even though she wasn't a percussionist because she only ever learned the oboe. [sp]This girl was later kicked out of the band because of drugs and general stupidity.[/sp] Also even the veterans are pretty bad and could hardly keep tempo.

our front ensemble and drumline are BFFs and we hardly think of each other as separate units: just percussion. everyone in perc wants to be there and we all get along and play together super well. sucks for you guys i guess :C

Yeah. Drumline didn't really get along well with auxiliary. A combination of bad players, non-percussionist, and too many freshmen makes for bad auxiliary, and in turn an angry drumline.

The only thing that keeps my band together is near-endless hours of practice. Even then all everybody does is screw around and suck at everything. About 90% of my band is comprised of swagfags who don't even know what a treble clef is. Color Guard (auxiliary if I remember the official term) is a bunch of feminists that think they are above the rest of the band, as is drumline and percussion minus the feminists and more swagXyolo bullshit.

Amador Valley's well known for their percussionists that wind up in Santa Clara Vanguard, Vanguard Cadets, and Vanguard Winter Perc.

During a competition show one of the colorguards dropped her rifle while I was kneeling and just stared at me. She then looked down at the rifle and for a moment stuck her hands out as if hoping it would jump into her hands like a Harry Potter broomstick.

I can honestly say as a senior, I will not miss the band in the slightest. This is the fourth year I've been with the band, from when the school opened and everyone has become snide pompous assholes. It makes me really sad because I'm part of the 10-11 seniors that's still in band of the original like 30 from my freshman year. I never held leadership nor did I really want to because I just enjoyed being with everyone but this year, everyone just seems all split up and condescending and band lost all it's appeal.

How the hell did you know my school Taiwanese.

i quit band at the end of middle school and nothing of value was lost [editline]10th March 2013[/editline] [img]http://puu.sh/2fBNJ[/img] [I]i wonder how...[/I]

halp EDIT: @ taiwanese we have maybe one or two good percussionists. The rest of them are either cymbals or people too lazy to march that wind up in the pit. Also our current drum major is the brother of the senior DM last year, who's family just happens to live in the super-rich part of town. The result is the most cocky piece of shit in the world who is full of himself to the brim and will make excessively long speeches that make no sense, just to hear himself talk. And our current senior DM is one of the biggest swagfags in the school. So much that even the band director knows it. I hate my band.

There are a few people in my band that I really can't stand, but for the most part I'm fine. I wasn't in the middle school band but my friends convinced me to join the high school band. It really helps that pretty much all of my friends are in band. I also really like the director. He's awesome.

Asians and Asians and Asians and Asians. Oh and did I mention Asians? Which is also my band in a nutshell.

nigga we got a white freshman from oklahoma last week turned him mexican for maximum diversity [img]https://sphotos-a.xx.fbcdn.net/hphotos-prn1/544163_10200975156606236_845557486_n.jpg[/img]

my town is: 90% white 8% asian 1% black and 1% other

I am the only 100% Jewish kid in my band. Also one of the band kids has her own Bentley and recently broke a $10,000 flute in half. And short people on bari. And by short I mean 1 meter short.

my town is basically all jewish

There's only 1 Asian and 2 Hispanics in our band. The other 70-some of us are white. We aren't very diverse.

We aren't diverse at all. Everyone is either Asian or white.

Sometimes the guys in my section pretend to hold their saxes like rifles and start screaming ALPHA ALPHA BRAVO DELTA CHARLIE ONE ONE TWO TANGOS MIKE MIKE BRAVO ZERO and then some sort of tribal dance of screaming commences in the general area where the section is and goes on for about 5 minutes.
