1) Marching the high step is TOTALLY, COMPLETELY different than the way they march now. The step they do now is actually very difficult to learn to do well, and it would probably be near impossible for them to change without at least a summer's worth of rehearsals. 2) Agree. The music is, a lot of the time, quite lackluster. I think it has a lot to do with the selections.3) High school bands (good ones at least) don't play with sheet music because they learn ONE show for a season, so there is only one set of music to learn. College bands learn a new show for every home game, thus increasing exponentially the amount they [would] have to memorize. I am not/was not in the band, but I was in one of the best in Ohio in High School. Don't knock the band unless you have experience. What they do is A LOT harder than it looks
