  1. I wish I could post pics. The Daughter attended a flute symposium and the guest artist had a contrabass flute. You had to play it on an upright stand as it was about 5 feet tall. The mouthpiece section was bent around into a "4" shape to allow you to blow into it and still reach the keys. EDIT: There are pics on the Wikipedia article on contrabass flutes.
  2. And you really thought that comment somehow contributed to the conversation? You really don't have to post everything that pops into your head. Use some discretion please.
  3. This is (for me), a military pass in review. At the end of boot camp graduations, all the new sailors would pass in review of the reviewing stand, followed at the end by the band. We also did this when we performed at USMC Sunset Parades.
  4. Carolina Crown -- as Crown fans. I think the forum lets you start new threads if you want to discuss Crown differently. Give it a try. Thx!
  5. I'll just post what I got: DCI/DCA -- none HS -- 2 yrs. Only started a marching band when I was a Junior, though we always had a band in the stands. Snare drum in the stands, trombone marching. College -- 5 yrs. Also did some arranging. 2 yrs trombone, 1 yr snare drum, 2 yrs bass drum Military -- 8 yrs total as a Musician mostly doing HS recruiting, but still a fair amount of Ceremonial duty which involved marching (pass in review, parades, etc.). Trombone major, later switched to guitar major, trombone minor. Also played synth, drum set, and trumpet.
  6. Oh really? That seems a bit presumptuous, especially on a thread YOU didn't start.
  7. Do you ever see a guard member run off the field anywhere than right side back field? Thinking back to "Tinker Bell" (Crown). Is it a left to right issue? In the design manual somewhere?
  8. I LOVE small corps out there giving it all! Crowd seemed to like it, too. The Son started out with the Racine Scouts who were only a little bigger than Heat Wave.
