 %†Gym Ldr. Epin†: Pretty much haha

 ~†Champion Maxerus†: Oh you guys defidently make some people cry here
 %†Gym Ldr. Epin†: That was our first movement xD
 %†Gym Ldr. Epin†: And I am going to take that as a compliment haha
 ~†Champion Maxerus†: Oh it is
 %†Gym Ldr. Epin†: Size isn't everything though
 %†Gym Ldr. Epin†: Kennesaw Mountain is a 2A High School (We're 5A) and they beat us at NAtionals
 %†Gym Ldr. Epin†: But they also get unlimited practice time we only get 8 hours a week....
 ~†Champion Maxerus†: I know but you guys are very clear too. I can hear distinct cords and there are not individuals sticking out
 %†Gym Ldr. Epin†: That's one thing we do well
 %†Gym Ldr. Epin†: We got 1st overall in music at UIL State
 ~†Champion Maxerus†: Nice!
 %†Gym Ldr. Epin†: We have the best Sounding band in Texas fortunately haha
 %†Gym Ldr. Epin†: But we aren't a Marcus unfortunately...
 ~†Champion Maxerus†: Marcus?
 %†Gym Ldr. Epin†: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VhXdEoF533g
 %†Gym Ldr. Epin†: Marcus
 ~†Champion Maxerus†: ...so everything IS bigger in Texas
 %†Gym Ldr. Epin†: Yes
 %†Gym Ldr. Epin†: xD
 %†Gym Ldr. Epin†: Marcus is special
 %†Gym Ldr. Epin†: They are the only school in their district that has a band
 ~†Champion Maxerus†: Oh wow
 %†Gym Ldr. Epin†: Marcus can suck my alto sax though
 ~†Champion Maxerus†: Haha Baritone here
 %†Gym Ldr. Epin†: Because Reagan has had THE woodwind section of Texas the past 3 years
 %†Gym Ldr. Epin†: All my friends are low brass
 %†Gym Ldr. Epin†: I actually play TBone and Bari as well
 ~†Champion Maxerus†: Our lowbrass is cool
 %†Gym Ldr. Epin†: Crossmen ftw
 %†Gym Ldr. Epin†: What grade are you?
 ~†Champion Maxerus†: Usually our low brass is more skilled on average than the woodwnds
 %†Gym Ldr. Epin†: Same
 ~†Champion Maxerus†: Like last year, we had a Trombone prodigey
 ~†Champion Maxerus†: Kris Rogers
 %†Gym Ldr. Epin†: We have had one of the best Low Brasses in Texas the past four years
 %†Gym Ldr. Epin†: But
 ~†Champion Maxerus†: Nice!
 %†Gym Ldr. Epin†: Most woodwind sections suck
 %†Gym Ldr. Epin†: So we stick out more xD
 %†Gym Ldr. Epin†: We
 %†Gym Ldr. Epin†: 'vehad
 ~†Champion Maxerus†: Yeah. Our woodwinds are full of girls that didn't want to do gym in Middle School
 ~†Champion Maxerus†: Same with Trumpets
 ~†Champion Maxerus†: No REAL musical skill
 ~†Champion Maxerus†: Our Low Brass and Saxes are some of the best players
 %†Gym Ldr. Epin†: Justin Napier, Hunter Stockton, Kevin Bremmer, and Ryan Pearson all come through on T-bone
 %†Gym Ldr. Epin†: Pay attention to DCI?
 ~†Champion Maxerus†: I personally don't, but alot in my band does
 ~†Champion Maxerus†: Like i'd say n our Brass Class, the 5 best players.
 ~†Champion Maxerus†: 2nd Chair Trombone
 ~†Champion Maxerus†: 1st Chair Baritone (me)
 ~†Champion Maxerus†: 5th Chair Baritone (innacurate testing/he was high)
 ~†Champion Maxerus†: 1st Chair Trumpet
 ~†Champion Maxerus†: 1st Chair Tuba
 ~†Champion Maxerus†: Best 5 Players of brass there
 %†Gym Ldr. Epin†: Lol (He was high)
 %†Gym Ldr. Epin†: Your job
 %†Gym Ldr. Epin†: is to ask someone at school
 %†Gym Ldr. Epin†: Who loves DCI about 2002 Cavaliers Frameworks
 ~†Champion Maxerus†: My brass ensemble intructor may know he loves em too
 ~†Champion Maxerus†: He was a Senior m Freshman year and Kris' Junior year
 %†Gym Ldr. Epin†: My band director is the trumpet soloist xD
 %†Gym Ldr. Epin†: Well
 %†Gym Ldr. Epin†: it's a duet
 %†Gym Ldr. Epin†: bit its not really a duet
 ~†Champion Maxerus†: He was scared to death of Kris so much, he had 4 people try out for chair placement on a bass trombone (which has incredibly extended range) just so Kris wouldn't get a leadership spot
 ~†Champion Maxerus†: And wow bad ass!
 ~†Champion Maxerus†: Our old director was director of MTSU once
 %†Gym Ldr. Epin†: Frameworks is the highest rated DCI show ever
 %†Gym Ldr. Epin†: But that's really cool!
 ~†Champion Maxerus†: Haha which one? Old director or shooting Kris in the foot?
 %†Gym Ldr. Epin†: Old director xD
 %†Gym Ldr. Epin†: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IhHNs2hVT8c Freshmen show ;_;
 ~†Champion Maxerus†: Yeah he was amazing. That show was his last project. Last years
 ~†Champion Maxerus†: He retired, pulled out money, and ran to Mississippi...to work again
 %†Gym Ldr. Epin†: Lol
 %†Gym Ldr. Epin†: Our old Band director is the finearts head at central office for the district now
 ~†Champion Maxerus†: Murphy beant rules
 %†Gym Ldr. Epin†: How so?
 ~†Champion Maxerus†: He let guys and girls change on the buses together
 ~†Champion Maxerus†: He let us come to school late on special ays
 ~†Champion Maxerus†: *days
 %†Gym Ldr. Epin†: Ah
 ~†Champion Maxerus†: He didn't enforce dress code
 %†Gym Ldr. Epin†: We change on the same busses s:
 %†Gym Ldr. Epin†: We wear spandex though
 ~†Champion Maxerus†: He didn't even follow his OWN dress code!
 %†Gym Ldr. Epin†: Lol
 ~†Champion Maxerus†: Haha well our new ones think it's sinful
 ~†Champion Maxerus†: But yeah
 %†Gym Ldr. Epin†: Oh funnn
 %†Gym Ldr. Epin†: Chavis is usually lax
 ~†Champion Maxerus†: 1st day of school: all teachers wear tuxes or dresses
 %†Gym Ldr. Epin†: as long as you go by his rules
 ~†Champion Maxerus†: Murphy: wears khaki shorts and a tennis shirt and vizor
 %†Gym Ldr. Epin†: Lol
 ~†Champion Maxerus†: Murphy gave no fucks about anything not tennis or band
 ~†Champion Maxerus†: And barley any fucks to his kid in band
 %†Gym Ldr. Epin†: Jesus
 %†Gym Ldr. Epin†: Chavis cares a lot about us
 %†Gym Ldr. Epin†: He's been here for like
 ~†Champion Maxerus†: Murhy loves all of us too
 ~†Champion Maxerus†: *loved
 %†Gym Ldr. Epin†: 6 years 5 years now
 ~†Champion Maxerus†: Nice
 %†Gym Ldr. Epin†: 5years*
 ~†Champion Maxerus†: Like Murphy would get sentimental, teach us life skills (and tennis)
 ~†Champion Maxerus†: He even hung out with a senior that didn't want to go home on the weekends and taught him tennis
 ~†Champion Maxerus†: But yeah Murphy's life priorities
 ~†Champion Maxerus†: 1. Tennis
 ~†Champion Maxerus†: 2. Band
 %†Gym Ldr. Epin†: 3. Tennis?
 ~†Champion Maxerus†: 3. Sean Murphy
 ~†Champion Maxerus†: Nope
 %†Gym Ldr. Epin†: Lol
 ~†Champion Maxerus†: His son lol
 %†Gym Ldr. Epin†: Lol
 %†Gym Ldr. Epin†: Yeah Chavis has an intersting back story
 ~†Champion Maxerus†: How so?
 %†Gym Ldr. Epin†: Well
 %†Gym Ldr. Epin†: When he first came to Reagan
 %†Gym Ldr. Epin†: Mr Chambers had abandoned the band for the Central office spot
 %†Gym Ldr. Epin†: And the band had been on the decline from it's Grand Nats glory days
 %†Gym Ldr. Epin†: Not Bad by any means
 %†Gym Ldr. Epin†: but not good
 %†Gym Ldr. Epin†: Then Chavis came along,
 %†Gym Ldr. Epin†: first Head band director job
 %†Gym Ldr. Epin†: First show, En Garde, fucking blows
 %†Gym Ldr. Epin†: BUT it was him installing a new style of marching
 %†Gym Ldr. Epin†: Then, Have You Got It In You? Was his second show
 %†Gym Ldr. Epin†: Which taught the band more marching and basically got his first round of people with extended experience into the grove
 %†Gym Ldr. Epin†: then came RE-
 %†Gym Ldr. Epin†: I will remember to this day hearing people yell at us that Reagan was washed up and done
 %†Gym Ldr. Epin†: BOA Conroe was the worst
 %†Gym Ldr. Epin†: Our rival School, Johnson, basically shat on us the wholetime before performance
 %†Gym Ldr. Epin†: and L.D. Bell was fairly rude
 %†Gym Ldr. Epin†: but when we walked out of Prelims 3rd, infront of both of them, after not making finals the year before
 %†Gym Ldr. Epin†: It was satisfying
 ~†Champion Maxerus†: I bet
 %†Gym Ldr. Epin†: Even as I freshmen I was proud of it
 ~†Champion Maxerus†: We have one band, Siegle, we haven't beaten in 18 years
 %†Gym Ldr. Epin†: And then we got 4th, and the Music caption over the top 6 bands in the state
 ~†Champion Maxerus†: Everyband we have faced we have beat at least once except them
 ~†Champion Maxerus†: Nice
 %†Gym Ldr. Epin†: Johnson was a school built right at the beginning of Chavis' reign
 %†Gym Ldr. Epin†: It's our sister school
 %†Gym Ldr. Epin†: Reagan got too big so they had to split it
 ~†Champion Maxerus†: But the new directors are extreme Republicans and Murphy was extremely Democrat
 ~†Champion Maxerus†: So theri views on life is WAY different
 %†Gym Ldr. Epin†: I don't know what Chavis is xD
 ~†Champion Maxerus†: There is no spiritual sense
 ~†Champion Maxerus†: No fun
 ~†Champion Maxerus†: It's professional marching band
 %†Gym Ldr. Epin†: Well you guys are better, no?
 ~†Champion Maxerus†: Due to style, it looks maybe Democrat
 ~†Champion Maxerus†: Yes we are...but the way Murphy was made him more loveable
 %†Gym Ldr. Epin†: Chavis worked us like slaves freshmen year
 ~†Champion Maxerus†: These new guys (and lady) don't really care about US as people.
 %†Gym Ldr. Epin†: I could go outand MArch RE- right now
 %†Gym Ldr. Epin†: But it was worth it
 %†Gym Ldr. Epin†: You know why?
 %†Gym Ldr. Epin†: Because we beat Johnson at BOA San Antonio and State
 %†Gym Ldr. Epin†: And we got better
 ~†Champion Maxerus†: I just miss the way Murphy was. Looser. Cooler. Caring. and eccentric
 %†Gym Ldr. Epin†: You're better off now, trust me
 %†Gym Ldr. Epin†: You could have Mr. Lipmann
 ~†Champion Maxerus†: Well yeah we are bounds ahead of before
 ~†Champion Maxerus†: Bu ti's cuase they are STRICTLY professional
 %†Gym Ldr. Epin†: No talking in the fine arts building at johnson haha
 %†Gym Ldr. Epin†: You have to sacrifice to be good
 ~†Champion Maxerus†: Yeah Murphy would be like "Fuck rules go play wall ball"
 ~†Champion Maxerus†: Well we still good with Murphy
 ~†Champion Maxerus†: We are ust better with the Medfords
 %†Gym Ldr. Epin†: We sacrificed an entire year to be better the next year
 %†Gym Ldr. Epin†: Sophomore year was a sacrifice
 ~†Champion Maxerus†: What I miss most from Murphy was what he said to people
 %†Gym Ldr. Epin†: We bought a cheaper show, spent less time on extra stuff and more refining our skills, and what did we do? Kick ass at BOA Grand Nationals the next year
 %†Gym Ldr. Epin†: Chavis has a way with words
 %†Gym Ldr. Epin†: He can say something with the least bit of emotion
 ~†Champion Maxerus†: Like every night, he'd tell us the same thing. "Well you did good tonight you filthy animals. Go home show's over. I love you and there is nothing you can do about it."
 ~†Champion Maxerus†: Yeah..the Medfords show NO emotion...
 %†Gym Ldr. Epin†: and pull an entire band of 350+ into one coherent belief
 %†Gym Ldr. Epin†: I remember before Grand Nats Finals he had us pack in
 %†Gym Ldr. Epin†: And he only said a few things
 ~†Champion Maxerus†: Yeah Murphy dd that. Not the new ones :/
 %†Gym Ldr. Epin†: "Well, you're here. What are we going to do now? You've come all this way, done all this work, and you're finally here, one last run,
 %†Gym Ldr. Epin†: one last performance infront of the largest crowd of your High School careers. Leave it on the field, I want nothing held onto, give everything you've got tonight. Get it Reagan"
 %†Gym Ldr. Epin†: I don't cry
 %†Gym Ldr. Epin†: I didn't cry when my dogs died
 ~†Champion Maxerus†: Murphy would give a speech and then we did this athletic prayer.
 ~†Champion Maxerus†: Did you then lol
 %†Gym Ldr. Epin†: I didn't cry when my girlfriend of 2 years broke up with me for another guy
 %†Gym Ldr. Epin†: But god damn did I cry after I laid down on the turf of Lucas Oil at the end of Let It Shine
 ~†Champion Maxerus†: We did that last year after Time To Say Goodbye...cause we did our best and it was Murphy's final show with us
 ~†Champion Maxerus†: Btw, spam alert
 ~†Champion Maxerus†: Here is the prayer
 %†Gym Ldr. Epin†: What
 %†Gym Ldr. Epin†: Oh
 ~†Champion Maxerus†: Wait nvm found a better version
 %†Gym Ldr. Epin†: Alright haha
 ~†Champion Maxerus†: o I lied
 ~†Champion Maxerus†: Dear Lord in the battles we go through life
 ~†Champion Maxerus†: (Dear Lord in the battles we go through life)
 ~†Champion Maxerus†: We ask for a chance thats fair
 ~†Champion Maxerus†: (we ask for a chance thats fair)
 ~†Champion Maxerus†: A chance to equal our strides
 ~†Champion Maxerus†: (a chance to equal our strides)
 ~†Champion Maxerus†: A chance to do or dare
 ~†Champion Maxerus†: (a chance to do or dare)
 ~†Champion Maxerus†: If we should win
 ~†Champion Maxerus†: (if we should win)
 ~†Champion Maxerus†: Let it be by the code
 ~†Champion Maxerus†: (let it be by the code)
 ~†Champion Maxerus†: With faith and honor held high
 ~†Champion Maxerus†: (with faith and honor held high)
 ~†Champion Maxerus†: If we should lose
 ~†Champion Maxerus†: (if we should lose)
 ~†Champion Maxerus†: Let us stand by the road
 ~†Champion Maxerus†: (let us stand by the road)
 ~†Champion Maxerus†: And cheer as the winners go by
 ~†Champion Maxerus†: (and cheer as the winners go by)
 ~†Champion Maxerus†: DAY BY DAY!
 ~†Champion Maxerus†: (DAY BY DAY)
 ~†Champion Maxerus†: WE GET BETTER AND BETTER!
 ~†Champion Maxerus†: (WE GET BETTER AND BETTER)
 ~†Champion Maxerus†: TILL WE CAN'T BE BEAT!
 ~†Champion Maxerus†: (TILL WE CAN'T BE BEAT)
 ~†Champion Maxerus†: WONT, BE, BEAT!!!!!!!!
 ~†Champion Maxerus†: (WONT, BE, BEAT!!!!!!)
 ~†Champion Maxerus†: Yeah it left us pumped...we still do the prayer...but where are our directors now...not in the middle of the circle like Murphy would. The Medfords (both of them) stand back (the first time the lady disgusted at the "waste of time") like robots
 ~†Champion Maxerus†: That's why the band misses Murphy most...sorry kind of living in nostalgia
 %†Gym Ldr. Epin†: It's fine
 %†Gym Ldr. Epin†: I'm watching all my old shows ;_;
 %†Gym Ldr. Epin†: But yeah
 %†Gym Ldr. Epin†: Chavis doesn't have any sort of ritual
 %†Gym Ldr. Epin†: He just...I dunno, he'll say the simplest thing
 %†Gym Ldr. Epin†: and it sets it all in motion
 ~†Champion Maxerus†: It's still a touchy subject. We went from two directors that cared to I'm sure neither of the Medfords have one heart between them
 ~†Champion Maxerus†: All Mr. Medford has done for motivtion so far is generic positive reinforcement and put down the past directors methods
 ~†Champion Maxerus†: "The Columbia Way" as he called it...
 ~†Champion Maxerus†: And watching past shows is sad
 ~†Champion Maxerus†: Oh and here is a perfect demonstration of the biggest reason we miss Murphy
 ~†Champion Maxerus†: Long story so get comfy
 %†Gym Ldr. Epin†: Ight
 %†Gym Ldr. Epin†: After this I'm going to bed xD
 ~†Champion Maxerus†: So last football game, Murphy came for a visit to see us and the Medfords
 ~†Champion Maxerus†: He left around 3rd quarter to start his drive back home. Around 4th, a gaurd gilr busted out crying.
 ~†Champion Maxerus†: Her dad died in a wreck on his way home from work and someone told her AT the game
 ~†Champion Maxerus†: On teh way home, the band was silent like mourning fo her (we are all close)
 ~†Champion Maxerus†: When we got back, the band captain started a prayer service for her dad in the Gaurd Room
 ~†Champion Maxerus†: Most of the band was there (none of the nerds or country people)
 ~†Champion Maxerus†: And the Medfords just stood against the wall and stared at us waiting by the door for us to hurry up and ifnish
 %†Gym Ldr. Epin†: /:
 ~†Champion Maxerus†: What?
 ~†Champion Maxerus†: (what?)
 %†Gym Ldr. Epin†: So sad :c
 ~†Champion Maxerus†: I know it was crushing :(
 ~†Champion Maxerus†: She was such a hapy person too and we all wondered ya know...why her?
 ~†Champion Maxerus†: But back to story...
 ~†Champion Maxerus†: So then, I hear two of the girls behind me stop crying some. Murphy got between them and hugged both of them
 ~†Champion Maxerus†: Yes. He drove BACK up from Alabama to meet us at the band room and he stood with us while we prayed for tyhe girls dad
 ~†Champion Maxerus†: Medfords? Still against the wall. Inched closer to the door. Murphy got up and said the calmest insult ever between two adults.
 %†Gym Ldr. Epin†: Dang
 ~†Champion Maxerus†: "Give me the keys. The night is over so go home. You don't want to have a purpose here at this moment in time, therefore, you don't. Goodnight and, for the love of God, drive safely."
 %†Gym Ldr. Epin†: Lawl
 %†Gym Ldr. Epin†: I like this guy
 ~†Champion Maxerus†: Murphy was a smart ass.
 %†Gym Ldr. Epin†: Sounds like I'd get along with him
 ~†Champion Maxerus†: So in a gist, go home. You don't care so why bother. I'll close up lol
 %†Gym Ldr. Epin†: Pretty much haha
 ~†Champion Maxerus†: So yeah...THAT is why we miss him
 %†Gym Ldr. Epin†: Yeah
 %†Gym Ldr. Epin†: Makes sense
 ~†Champion Maxerus†: I mean are we better? Very much
 ~†Champion Maxerus†: I see dominating Contest of Champions this year
 ~†Champion Maxerus†: Maybe even beating Siegle
 %†Gym Ldr. Epin†: I assume they are like how chavis was his first year or two
 %†Gym Ldr. Epin†: nobody understood him
 %†Gym Ldr. Epin†: and he was an outside
 ~†Champion Maxerus†: No we understand them.
 %†Gym Ldr. Epin†: but he's all I've ever known
 %†Gym Ldr. Epin†: So I see how he acts as normal just like you with Murphy
 ~†Champion Maxerus†: And they are involved but only strictly professional. Not emotionally
 ~†Champion Maxerus†: Yeah I see
 %†Gym Ldr. Epin†: Like Mr White, our newest assistant band director
 %†Gym Ldr. Epin†: He's like
 %†Gym Ldr. Epin†: 6' 4:
 %†Gym Ldr. Epin†: fucking huge
 %†Gym Ldr. Epin†: and always angry
 %†Gym Ldr. Epin†: at first everyone was like "MR Chavis wtf are you doing"
 %†Gym Ldr. Epin†: But now he's just our big Vanilla Gorilla...
 ~†Champion Maxerus†: Haha what?
 ~†Champion Maxerus†: Weird name lol
 ~†Champion Maxerus†: http://columbiadailyherald.com/sites/files/article/209684_web_05-12-band-banquet-concert-bd-056-CF.jpg

 ~†Champion Maxerus†: http://columbiadailyherald.com/sites/files/article/178166_web_Alec-Blair-All-State-1st-chair_swtj.jpg
 ~†Champion Maxerus†: The excentric, Mr. Murphy
 %†Gym Ldr. Epin†: Mr Murphy looks chill as fuck
 ~†Champion Maxerus†: Oh he was. I told if it wasn't band and tennis, no fucks were given about life
 ~†Champion Maxerus†: He was a friend. Like our band captaina nd him agued politics all day
 ~†Champion Maxerus†: *aargued
 %†Gym Ldr. Epin†: I don't have pics of mr chavis /:
 ~†Champion Maxerus†: These are fomr our newspaper
 ~†Champion Maxerus†: *from
 ~†Champion Maxerus†: The city's paper
 ~†Champion Maxerus†: http://columbiadailyherald.com/sites/files/article/512482_web_CHS-New-Band-Directors_2055_swt.jpg
 ~†Champion Maxerus†: The Medfords
 %†Gym Ldr. Epin†: Mr Medford doesn't look too bad
 ~†Champion Maxerus†: Eh he isn't evil but he just is too professional and his motovational ideas are off
 ~†Champion Maxerus†: And he pretty much gave us the bird when he through out a bin of old music dating back to the 60s
 %†Gym Ldr. Epin†: I think he just needs ya'll to be open and willing to accept him
 %†Gym Ldr. Epin†: Mr. Chavis said old Reagan was dead when he first got here...
 %†Gym Ldr. Epin†: Look where we are now
 ~†Champion Maxerus†: I know and he will take us far
 ~†Champion Maxerus†: We have improved 10-fold. But that other feeling Marching Band gives you is gone. At least from the directors.
 %†Gym Ldr. Epin†: And you just have to give that time
 ~†Champion Maxerus†: And going from someone like Murphy to him is a big jump
 %†Gym Ldr. Epin†: The Medfords are just as out of place as you
 %†Gym Ldr. Epin†: Lawl
 %†Gym Ldr. Epin†: I should introduce you to the chambers Chavis Gap
 ~†Champion Maxerus†: Sure
 %†Gym Ldr. Epin†: Chambers was an arrogant, egotistical, asshole who expected you to spend another 8 hours learning the show yourself before the actual 8 hours for band started
 %†Gym Ldr. Epin†: and if not you we're cut
 %†Gym Ldr. Epin†: there we're no band/band director talks
 %†Gym Ldr. Epin†: Everything was handed down through assistant directors
 %†Gym Ldr. Epin†: or Drum Majors
 ~†Champion Maxerus†: Yeah that's extreme
 %†Gym Ldr. Epin†: Then Chavis came
 %†Gym Ldr. Epin†: And him being in his mid 20's at the time
 %†Gym Ldr. Epin†: fresh out of Drum corps
 %†Gym Ldr. Epin†: He knew the importance of connection
 %†Gym Ldr. Epin†: and ever since
 %†Gym Ldr. Epin†: He has started and ended every practice
 %†Gym Ldr. Epin†: started and ended every week
 %†Gym Ldr. Epin†: and lead us through everything we've been through
 %†Gym Ldr. Epin†: at our side
 %†Gym Ldr. Epin†: not infront of us
 %†Gym Ldr. Epin†: or behind us taking all the glory
 %†Gym Ldr. Epin†: but right next to us
 ~†Champion Maxerus†: That's similar to Murphy's style.
 ~†Champion Maxerus†: And my dad has a theory on why Medford doesn't fit.
 ~†Champion Maxerus†: You know the stereotypical "Music Teacher"
 %†Gym Ldr. Epin†: Yeah
 ~†Champion Maxerus†: Well Murphy was just a bad ass version of it essentially
 ~†Champion Maxerus†: Obviously too
 %†Gym Ldr. Epin†: Yeah
 %†Gym Ldr. Epin†: And Medfords are just your basic models
 ~†Champion Maxerus†: He thinks that the reason Medford isn't as artsy and emotionally down to earth as nearly most all
 ~†Champion Maxerus†: Is that Mr. Medford's first choice WASN'T music
 %†Gym Ldr. Epin†: Or he sucks at his instrument
 ~†Champion Maxerus†: Lol
 %†Gym Ldr. Epin†: and is more teacher than Murphy
 ~†Champion Maxerus†: yes
 %†Gym Ldr. Epin†: and less musician
 ~†Champion Maxerus†: Murphy wasn't a teacher
 %†Gym Ldr. Epin†: Like example
 ~†Champion Maxerus†: My dad thinks Medford started out in the cience or Math field
 %†Gym Ldr. Epin†: 1st and 2nd chair trombones
 %†Gym Ldr. Epin†: Hunter and Justin
 %†Gym Ldr. Epin†: both want to be band directors
 %†Gym Ldr. Epin†: in band Hunter is a LOT more artsy fartsy
 %†Gym Ldr. Epin†: While Justin is fucking mechanical
 %†Gym Ldr. Epin†: Both are AMAZING at what they do
 %†Gym Ldr. Epin†: But Hunter is a lot more charismatic
 %†Gym Ldr. Epin†: and fun on his horn
 ~†Champion Maxerus†: Hunter = Murphy
 ~†Champion Maxerus†: Justin = Medford
 %†Gym Ldr. Epin†: while Justin is very methodically and mechanical
 %†Gym Ldr. Epin†: Yes
 %†Gym Ldr. Epin†: Hunter makes All-State Jazz
 %†Gym Ldr. Epin†: Justin makes All-State on normal Etudes
 ~†Champion Maxerus†: he thinks Medford started as a Science or Math major and di Marching Band on th side BUT failed at his courses and fell back on music. So he felll from the Science world into the Band world and he doesn't fit.
 ~†Champion Maxerus†: He isn't artsy fartsy but strives for perfect and right
 ~†Champion Maxerus†: Like it's a scientific thing
 %†Gym Ldr. Epin†: Eh, that seems fairly far fetched to me tbh
 %†Gym Ldr. Epin†: He could be like me
 ~†Champion Maxerus†: Yours makes more sense
 %†Gym Ldr. Epin†: Me and Hunter would make an amazing Band Director Duo
 ~†Champion Maxerus†: All honesty
 %†Gym Ldr. Epin†: Hunter would handle all the emotional bullshit
 %†Gym Ldr. Epin†: and I would make sure everyone does their job
 %†Gym Ldr. Epin†: It's like my job as Saxophone Line leader now
 ~†Champion Maxerus†: Would you be STRICTLY professional about it though
 %†Gym Ldr. Epin†: I don't have to be everyones friend, I just keep them in line
 %†Gym Ldr. Epin†: Honestly? Probably
 ~†Champion Maxerus†: God I am the most unconventional leader ever.
 %†Gym Ldr. Epin†: We do 10 push ups everytime we mess up c:
 ~†Champion Maxerus†: We do to. That or Nathan squeezes someones nipples
 ~†Champion Maxerus†: ...don't ask...I know some oddballs
 %†Gym Ldr. Epin†: Eh
 %†Gym Ldr. Epin†: You're low brass
 ~†Champion Maxerus†: Exactly
 ~†Champion Maxerus†: And Nathan is a druggy
 %†Gym Ldr. Epin†: Oh fun
 %†Gym Ldr. Epin†: Well
 %†Gym Ldr. Epin†: I need sleep
 %†Gym Ldr. Epin†: So yeah
 ~†Champion Maxerus†: He lifts up his short legs and dry humps our female Bariotne
 %†Gym Ldr. Epin†: I'll see you later mate
 %†Gym Ldr. Epin†: Oh
 ~†Champion Maxerus†: Night man!
 %†Gym Ldr. Epin†: That sounds interesting haha
 %†Gym Ldr. Epin†: Night Amigo!
 ~†Champion Maxerus†: He is special...very
