So from what i've seen, the vast majority of the common posters here are brass players (judging by signatures). Are there more people here in other sections?

If you played multiple instruments, pick the one you played the most years.

"marched" pit in Nighthawks in 83 - it was the rule that you had to march in with the keyboard and then you could set them on stands, if I recall. Not sure if that was still the case in 84. It's all a blur! I do know that a marching set of vibes and a marching marimba are/were extremely heavy and cumbersome.

"marched" pit with Troopers in 85, 86 and 88 - back then the pit did actually participate in basics blocks and drill downs. Our pit section leader in 85 (Jim Waldorf, RIP) won drill downs frequently. I, on the other hand, always messed up on obliques. Sigh....

First marched 2nd/3rd bari in Sr corps field shows. After a break played Euph (no one else wanted the #### thing) in parades and was in the American Flag section for shows (couldn't make all the shows and didn't want to leave a hole in the horn line). After a big break, back to 3rd Bari and now moving up to 2nd Bari.
