Pep Band this year has been so fun for Me. My commitment to it has been better than it ever has, I have played at every single game and even though I am a cheerleader, I only missed playing a few songs. I think I deserve an A for my contributions because I played all required and optional games, I was always working to improve certain parts in the songs that I had trouble with, and played with all of my effort. Pep Band is such an important part to Newark Band. It keeps us fresh on learning new and different styles, The music is something way different than we are all used too, and it's a great way to see progress on the songs over the years and how each individual gets better. I have a lot of songs that I like and dislike in Pep Band, the top 3 are: 1. Wipeout 2. Best of Queen 3. Seven Nation Army. I picked all of these songs because I love the flute part for all of them so much as well as the tempos for each. Great songs to hype up the crowd! My bottom 3 are 1. Frozen 2. chicken dance 3. Scooby Doo. I really don't like how dragging these songs are, the parts are boring and not "peppy" enough for Pep Band. I have improved the most on Wipeout measure 5, I used to always make mistakes in that entire section, but now I can play it with ease and no mistakes. The number one song I want to play is Sweet Victory by David Glen Eisley!!!!
