as far as 2002... not that i'm biased or anything, but we (BAC) were told by many-a-judge that our section was the best in DCI this summer... nice warm sounds... as for all time... PR 96 was very good, but I liked 97 better... I can't imagine the best PR contra section being the one year was Birdman wasn't there. If you know who he is then you know who i'm talking about.

Tuba BTW.... in referrence to the Euph player... this doesn't apply now, but back in the days when contras weren't balanced, contra players would have to support about %70 of the horns weight with their arms alone, not with their shoulder. that's still a lot more weight then a euph. Today i'd say the two responsibilities are pretty even.
