I'm Charlie Scaringello '05, clarinetist, percussionist, saxophone player, and former conductor & librarian of America's Pep Band.

To do

• Fill out wiki pages for songs I have info for (a little at a time) ... heck, potentially just do a brain dump
• Finish the Lord of the Rings cheer-set
• Arrange half the songs and cheers I've thought of arranging for the band
• Arrange the other half of the songs and cheers I've thought of arranging for the band

If you'd like to assist on any of them, I'd certainly welcome the help! Also it may cut down on redundant work and save us both time.

Favorite songs

• 051 - Championship Always sounds amazing
• 073 - The Muppet Show Theme
• 387 - Children of Sanchez Especially when playing snare
• 164 - Carry On My Wayward Son
• 034 - Patton Theme
• 423 - Ghostbusters
• 429 - Mr. Roboto
• The Anthems, because, as Bill said "It's really the only time we're all in tune and following closely. It's all downhill from there."

I'd list a couple more, but that'd just be silly.

Least favorite songs

• 414 - Duel of the Fates AKA: Duel of the monotonous 16th notes
• 420 - Soul Bossa Nova It's catchy, but I don't like Austin Powers at all
• 020 - Live and Let Die Not a fan of the song or this arrangement

Songs I'd like to read

• "Just think of it in 1/4 time. Then the time signature never changes." It's a bear to conduct (I'd know, I tried), but I really like the original tune
• 114 - Jump Another tough but good one
• 208 - Land of Make Believe Great tune. We tried it once, but it didn't catch on
• 237 - Overture from "Tommy" Another great tune stuck as being a one-hit wonder. And both are great arrangements.
• 255 - We Built this City and 301 - Theme from Star Trek IV Accurate arrangements, but they may need reworks to be a little easier to play without a complete complement of instruments playing strongly
