I like a little Sousa from time to time.

 

I actually played electric bass in my high school and college Marching band. I had a Peavey Mark III on a cart with a poower inverter and two 12 volt marine batteries, and a 2/15 cab, and I marched up and down the 50 YD line, behind the percussion section.

Oh, yeah. He can hold his own on the quad. I never knew he could rock on a drum set either, til we went to a GC together. Crazy {censored}.

No because the marches around here are usually commemorating some stupid battle between the Catholics and Prodistant where at least a dozen (extra) people get stabbed in the City Centre...

In high school (1970-72) I played flute and oboe in marching band. We did parades, half-time shows, and our march was "The Klaxon". I always made sure to smoke a lot of dope before marching. Today I enjoy them when someone else is doing the marching.

I participated in several marches when I was in the Army---Division change of command ceremonies, Veteran's Day marches, etc. It was kind of fun, as long as the weather cooperated. :D

in a howling gale and pissing rain while waiting for the pipe band to do their thing our baritone sax player stuck the bell under his kilt and had a wee on the edinburgh tatoo esplanade...in front of a crowd of 31:D

last time i marched was in 3 degree weather at a HS football game.

 

it sucked my trombone froze to my lips and when i tore it off of my face i bled and the blood froze making me frozen to the horn again.:mad: oh well at least i have the memory.

 

i can say now that marches are more fun when its not really cold and when you don't have to mark time:thu:

Playing football is what got me through college to get my Bachelors in Music:freak:

I would have loved to have been able to play in the marching band:cry:

 

Are you playing in the Marching Band at the college you are attending?
