if you can march an 8 to 5, you can march a 6 to 5: chris clifton

welcome to band yap 8: the ocho

chris clifton knows more about military marching band than most people know about....anything. he's won multiple (consecutive) state titles, not to even mention that he's won honor band multiple times (also consecutive). chris' expertise is extraordinary, and he attributes some of his knowledge to the legendary east texas military marching band director stump burning tradition. yes, stump burning, we talked with chris about being a texas longhorn fan, his unusual path to music education, tacos, his strategy for purchasing clothing, the honor band experience, and his love of candy.
