Louisiana's Pride of Acadiana Heads to Orlando

[Ragin9221]

I would love to do this gig, don’t have a masters though, I know people back in the day that graduated for music education that I would love see have the job. After being a band nerd for 16 yrs of my life.

We really need to jazz it up a little . We need to hire like the asst. band director for Southern or something, get someone that works at Ohio St. or Penn St.. or get big Scottie Walker from Lafayette High School he is even wearing a Ragin Cajun Hat. In an article I found on him.

We need a whole different music selection and outlook.

First off we need to recruit about 100 more members we need 70% brass and 30% woodwinds. That’s how bands in the SEC, Southern, LSU, Texas A&M sound so awesome.

Second we need something that provokes school pride like a fanfare. Like Notre Dame”Rakes of Mallard” or USC “Tribute to Troy’ . We got “Respect” that is one signature song we need more

Third off we need crowd pleasers we have to come up with awesome sounding stuff, and just new stuff play something different in the stands.

Scotty is my next-door neighbor. Great guy! He would make the POA the best band in the land!

Scotty is retiring as band director from Lafayette High this year. Very well respected for his merits.

He has worked very hard at this job and the accomplishments and the many achievements he has attained in this position would be far too numerous to list!

They are planning a huge retirement type party and I understand they want all former band members to participate. Z may know more?
