So I'm in charge of picking the music for the next marching band show. I've had a couple ideas, though all available music has too many independent lines. When there are 25 kids in the band, you need a lot of doubling of parts so they can be heard. These are the ideas I've come up with so far, feel free to add comments in the well, comments section :p
Styx - Renegade/Grand Illusion, Come Sail Away, Mr. Roboto
Rolling Stones - Satisfaction, Paint it Black, Honky Tonk Women
Shrek - I'm a Believer, All Star, Funkytown, Accidentally in Love (3 of those 4) (this is the winner so far)
TV themes - there's a ton, I was thinking 70s - Hawaii 5-0, A Team, Jeffersons?, Peter Gunn
Incredibles - Lava in the Afternoon, the InCredits
That's all, I think I'm off to a good start, at least I hope I am. Anyone with any other ideas is more than welcome to comment. Remember it has to be playable by a 25 person band :)

Mr Roboto would be AWESOME if you could pull the second tuba's nose out of his music :)
We call him the organic tuba stand...
We also lost our really good tuba player for the season due to physical problems. Luckily we recruited a bass guitar player so we aren't a treble band.
Gimp: It would be the same arrangement we did in the FMB. Kilroy!
Shrek or the Stones!!
What about Family Guy?!?!!
Family Guy just won't happen.
On the college level, it's appropriate, but not on the high school level. Even though most of the kids watch it.
