College Band Camp. Hurts.

Ow. We have done basics for 4 days, for 4 hours each day. Feet hurt, I've never marched so much in my life. We learned 18 sets of pregame this morning and we've memorized the music for the four movements of our planets show, and a version of amazing, and a song written by our director. We are going to have three movements of this show done in drill by Monday from what I've been told. The college I go to is corps style, but more traditional, symmetrical drill, pivots, etc.

Anyone else having their college band camp right now?

(This probably isn't half as bad as what it would be like in a drum corps, but that's not the point of this topic)

See, my band camp is from 8 - 9:30. But this topic is more specifically for College bands since most don't compete. And their band camps are thus run differently I would think. This is run a lot differently than what my high school did.
