Battery is smaller this year... or are they just being distributed around to other instruments?

8 snare, 5 bass, 4 tenor.

Their show next year will be a tribute to small town high school marching bands. 2 snares, 2 tenors, 3 basses, 1 cymbal, 1 marching zylophone.

Sunday's weather forecast went from good to even better. No greater than 1% chance of rain after 2 PM. This is awesome! The curse is broken! Everyone rejoice!

Literally one cymbal. He just whuffs it from side to side. The technique is in how the air flows around it. You just have to understand the art form, man.

no no no MIC the cymbal so you can pick the induced vibrations caused by the air flowing over the plate !

Yes, but you can't let the weight of the mic itself affect the resonance of the cymbal. That's why it takes a master...

He may have ended up with one cymbal, but he didn't start out that way.

A conversation from after the show...

Band director: "Where's your other cymbal?"

Cymbal player: "I dropped it when we were marching onto the field."

Band director: "Well, why didn't you pick it up?"

Cymbal player: "I thought the judges would penalize us if I did that."

This is so relevant.
