They'll get in our way less

2018-03-06 18:09:25 UTC  

@Hadrian they just slip over the shoulders. They're easier to take off than a backpack.

2018-03-06 18:09:34 UTC  

eh I guess

2018-03-06 18:09:44 UTC  

And it fucking hurts.

2018-03-06 18:10:01 UTC  

To get hit with drum equipment

2018-03-06 18:10:06 UTC  

But if we act seriously they'll treat us seriously

2018-03-06 18:10:06 UTC  

when our numbers improve I absolutely think it would be great

2018-03-06 18:10:34 UTC  

A single bass drum to keep the beat would be awesome

2018-03-06 18:10:58 UTC  

That would be pretty cool

2018-03-06 18:11:12 UTC  

We have to sing while we do it

2018-03-06 18:11:23 UTC  

We're very small, we need to think realistically for the time being, the man with the drum will either get knocked out cold during his drumming, or lose his drum during the fight

2018-03-06 18:11:26 UTC  

I think the *Teufeslied* would be fitting

2018-03-06 18:11:42 UTC  

I'm a drummer

2018-03-06 18:11:56 UTC  

"The ***ᛋᛋ*** marches in the *enemy's* land"

2018-03-06 18:11:57 UTC  

@WhitePower_Stroke I also marched bass

2018-03-06 18:12:04 UTC  

@Malal no. The drum itself builds the tone. It builds suspense.

2018-03-06 18:12:08 UTC  

How many do we need before we can start acting like a disciplined movement?

2018-03-06 18:12:21 UTC  

. @CatoHostilius I marched bass and snare

2018-03-06 18:12:29 UTC  

drums are expensive too, especially if they get destroyed at every rally

2018-03-06 18:12:44 UTC  
2018-03-06 18:12:45 UTC  

@Joey zyklon that's why the drummer is always in the back.

2018-03-06 18:12:47 UTC  

There are absolutely things we can work on right now to improve discipline

2018-03-06 18:12:49 UTC  

Drums and such don't equal discipline

2018-03-06 18:13:03 UTC  

no but they make for a quality march

2018-03-06 18:13:06 UTC  

No they don't.

2018-03-06 18:13:11 UTC  

Marching does

2018-03-06 18:13:25 UTC  

It has to be drill.

2018-03-06 18:13:37 UTC  

I'm not against that, but worrying about drums at the moment is trivial

2018-03-06 18:13:46 UTC  

There has to be a drill sergeant

2018-03-06 18:13:48 UTC  

we can discuss the future

2018-03-06 18:14:24 UTC  

Even experimenting with it. Gauge interest

2018-03-06 18:15:23 UTC  

See if we can establish the beginning of a music corps and drill team

2018-03-06 18:16:07 UTC  

There's isn't a drill "team" everyone knows drill. Drill is essential to good order and discipline.

2018-03-06 18:16:47 UTC  

Some in the party feel it's too early to worry about drill

2018-03-06 18:17:40 UTC  

i think it's never too early

2018-03-06 18:17:45 UTC  

Drill from the very beginning would be better

2018-03-06 18:18:00 UTC  

Just like Boot Camp

2018-03-06 18:18:10 UTC  

Imagine a small group, unco-ordinated. Now imagine the same group marching in step

2018-03-06 18:18:17 UTC  

we just have to want to do it, and we can

2018-03-06 18:18:39 UTC  

A small group of people acting as one can be more powerful than a massive group acting as individuals. 300 Spartans.

2018-03-06 18:18:52 UTC  

You need to learn your place. You need to learn that you are no longer an individual. You are not a singular person anymore. You are now a part of a collective. You are another small cog in the machine.
