funny, this post started asking for a crazy-cool trom solo, then it started talking about if Marching Bands are musical .

well personally, i think marching bands are a great idea, yes they may be there at half time when ppl are getting food etc. but, just think how boring ti would be if you were getting food and it was silent? not a single sound, when you could have this great group of great musicians playing songs that non musicians have actually heard of, and whilst doing that, they are marching around in panterns and waving their instruments around as they play..... now thats a good band
mind you i dont play in a marching band, but wouldnt mind it.
