    Comment by Deagan — June 15, 2009
  • Definitely gay:

    “Your costumes are very pretty, but I hate calling them costumes.”
    “Tubas are you with it?! Three TALL tubas, oh boy!”
    “Your uniforms are very pretty out there.”
    “What a husky sound! My. My. My. Mmmmmmmm.”
    “Pretty flags up there…gahh-leee..mmm..”

  • The “wild chart” is T.O. … in case he “missed the name of it”

    Comment by Daddyboylee — August 7, 2009
  • Too funny…

    Sounds like a pretty band to me with at least three tall tubas. Well, the band looks like they could be a college band. Goodness Gracious… He reminds me of a person who has hit the sauce too many times. Pretty flags…

    Judging is only a side job for him. His regular job is a professor of speach and language don’t ya think?

    HaHahAhAHaHa

    Comment by dashband — August 30, 2009

  • He actually got paid for that ???

    Comment by fluffy pillows — September 17, 2009
  • guy sounds incompetent and does know what he is doing… or what to evalutate. extremely unprofessional

    Comment by Real_Ajudicator — September 29, 2009
  • “wild chart”… how can he not know Wayne Downey’s Blue Devil arrangement of “Free”? Is this seriously the first time he is hearing it? Talk about being lost.

    Comment by Real_Ajudicator — September 29, 2009
  • I will admit, this a pretty bad tape, but those who think they can always do better need to try judging 5 or more bands in a row and making everything sound good. For true excitement try 43 bands in one day.

  • “when ever you play these, what can I say, in your face type sound, you have to be very, the the the soft parts have to be soft, you see what i’m saying…” This guy should stop and collect his thought before he goes on.

  • now when my daughter is in her compititions im gonna b laughin my butt off and lookin at the judges

    Comment by kari — November 23, 2009
  • I can’t imagine what the judges meeting was like with this guy.

    Comment by Frankie — November 26, 2009
  • I just want to stress to EVERY SINGLE person reading this, that I am a judge, and who ever this guy is, HE IS NOT a trained professional. Unfortunately most judges organizations are volunteer and I’m sure this guy was brought in because they had to fill the panel. I can say without a doubt that this is the worst judge’s tape I’ve ever heard, I can’t even glean what caption he’s supposed to be judging, I THINK he’s judging music, but whether it’s general effect, ensemble, I couldn’t even begin to tell you.

    The feedback he gives are comments that my grandmother could be making, they are absolutely the most superficial, vague comments I’ve ever heard an adjudicator make. He’s trying very hard to be positive which is good, but he paints a false picture during the show that this band is doing well (as evidenced by the audio, they probably need some help) but then his wrap-up is almost all constructive and negative. I am going to give this tape to my judging association as a CLEAR definition of what a tape should NEVER sound like. Thanks to whomever posted this!

  • I would sell my grandmother to see this gentleman’s numbers from this competition, I bet you they are even more hilarious than his tape.

  • wow, i wonder how they got bruce from family guy.

    Comment by jt — December 22, 2009
  • This unfortunate individual was in over his head as he was a last minute replacement according to the director of the band being judged. It really did happen. I have heard the original tape and it has become sort of a cult classic in some band or drum corps circles. I would suggest that everyone be “veerry curful” with the use of it. He might show up at one of your “reHERsals”.

    Comment by Royce — January 1, 2010
  • How is this guy qualified to be a judge, really?!?! Bahahaha. Idiot. Oh my goodness gracious….
    and, and, and… that was great :/

    Comment by Ashley — March 12, 2010

  • The readily available review phrases are useful to performance evaluators louis vuitton online store usually managers and or business owners who may not have the necessary skills and training in drafting the performance appraisal or review document.

    Comment by nike air force 1 shoes — May 27, 2010
  • So here’s the thing ladies and gentlemen. You may criticize this judge if you like. The reality is HIS marching band was 300+ members. He had an average of 15-20 TEXAS All-State Band members each year, and he never earned less that a SUPERIOR rating with his band – marching – concert – or sightreading. – check the records…

    I would lay odds that his bands were better than ANY OF YOURS!

    Comment by Dusty — July 10, 2010
  • He may have had a great band, 30 years ago. Times have changed and he should not be judging anymore if this is the way he’s going to be. If you want to have him there and carry a tape recorder and feel important, fine. But his scores shouldn’t count. I’ve played in a community band with an old guy as the director. He was very successful in his day, but now his ears are failing and his brain is fading. Seems like this guy is on the same track. At some point, it’s time to quit. He’s past that time.

    Comment by Jamie — August 9, 2010
  • I have no doubt he could have been/was a great director, with a huge band and multiple superior ratings. *HOWEVER* a good director does not a good adjudicator make.

    Constructive and SPECIFIC comments are what is needed in judge commentaries in order to make them productive, helpful and in the end, worth the director’s time and effort to listen to.

    Instead of “pretty flags” comments on the continuity (or lack of it) in coloring, graphic (or soft) design elements, size, etc. would have been more helpful. Or instead of “the percussion is lod alot of the time” mentioning it IN the moment he noticed it….I don’t think anyone is saying he’s not a good director. Just not a very good judge. :)

  • keep in m-mind that people are watching you right so be real, CAREFUL…bout how you stand…..that’s a beautiful blue…lol i’ve heard some weird tapes but this takes em all… and the snares at the beginning sound very dirty by the way.. lol
