  1. we had willing players use ancle weights on there horn that can range from a 5 to 10 pounds, when i played baritone, i hated it just be cause i was twevle and couldnt hold the dang thing up, reasons for me going bigger im still tring to figure that out!
  2. I like Bach chorale 320 we didnt play it during the summer though :( But we did hear the bandettes plasy it during a warm up. I though it was the funnest thing!
  3. You are defenatly going to want to get you arms in shape for the thing!!! Dont get scared when you first start drill, youll be fine, if you hit some one theyll live, I think i nailed about four people last year, each dent in that horn i have a story fory mostly because each dent in the horn i put in ... I was so scared that i would kill the horn during the first week of tour... anyway its going to be ruff the first couple of weeks but the pain just turns in to annoyance after awhile... its all mental, I i could do it any one defenatly can!!! as to the sousa question... The contra is alot better i hate the sousa... the only thing i can complain a bout the contra is that your blind on your left side so you should wach real carefully... hope this helps good luck!!!
  4. my god do i miss corps! my band sucks so bad all of them are little freshmen! why did i ever stay in the small band! AHHHHHHHHHHH!!!

In december People were still taking the plastic off the horns. I can tell you the music is is awesome, this year, there are alot of stange but fun rythms. Its not to Hard but I would love to see some more contras! Not only are we looking for more horns but we would like to fill our color gaurd too.
