I actually did that once... I wrote an original show and used it for FMA. haha

But Its a lot easier and less time consuming to find pieces -- and its good for when I'm actually looking for pieces to use in a few years... hopefully.

This really is an incredibly competitive season. Can't wait to see how all of these battles pan out.

Bando, maybe I should have just been quiet! Haha.

Well its a bit late for Immortals to win this season and will likely get Silver Medal this year which is still a huge improvement.
Practice doesn't make perfect....it makes you better...

I actually use shows I find on composers and arrangers websites. For example I always have my marching band do a key poulan show. For perc, I usually use something from box 6 or the occasional key poulan. Guard I just find songs in my iTunes I like and think would be cool. Corps I've done a mixture of using marching band audios and coming up with my own themes.

I just like having audio files for people to listen to.

For me, it all depends how busy I am in real life, lol. If I have time to think I try to be creative. If not, I just use a show already done. It's nothing bad. Some people just like getting in to things more than others. Kudos to them! They make the game that much better.
