Band Hacks Doug Fulwood

Doug and Jason swim into the murky waters of adjudication in the primarily "concert band" realm of things. This one is not for the faint of heart and examines both sides of the adjudicator/director perspectives. Get your popcorn ready!

Have you ever had a designer say or agree to one thing, and completely miss or blow the deadlines/expectations...then act like it was no big deal? Doug and Jason look closely at items to consider as you are in talks with a new or current designer for your marching band. This is very much a "on the soap-box" episode as we look at some of the traps we can fall into unknowingly and unintentionally. We think you will enjoy it!

Doug and Jason take a closer look at things to consider as we develop the individual student musicians in our band programs. Individual gains will pay enormous dividends in ensemble strength and performance.

It is Marching Contest Season 2023! Doug and Jason take our listeners through reflective and critical evaluation techniques to consider and employ as you refine your contest show. This is not an exhaustive list, but is a great starting place into evaluating current status as well as the "next steps to refinement" as we near the later part of the season. Take a listen before your next rehearsal! You will be glad you did!

Doug and Jason take a detailed look at things to consider/plan as you prepare for your first football game! It's been a whole year...take a listen for some helpful reminders and Jason being Jason!

As promised, Doug and Jason go very "in depth" with Booster Operations, Spending, Transparency, Meetings, 501 c3, Tax Implications, as well as some reminders from the last episode. If you have never had a booster club, or want to start one, or want to hear the advantages to moving towards a 501 C3 status, this is your episode! It will also shed some light on operations and procedures for those of you that perhaps have some adjustments that you want to make. Please join us or let us know how we can be of service!!!
