Answer 2

Ooh...fun marching band shows...hmm.

Well, a few years back, our school did a show called New Century Dawn (music by David Gillingham) and apparently everyone in it loved it (I joined at a later time...). After coming off a last place finish the year before, that show helped us step it up and earn second place in our state championships.

But the ultimate show was a year before I joined, entitled RAIN with the music of Robert W. Smith. It was comprised of several different compositions by him, but it made for a great show. We won States that year =D (not to mention last year too with Into the Raging River, music by Steve Reineke...

But if I had to suggest anything NOT to ever do, it'd be movie soundtracks. Do something unique and really surprise the crowd.
