Back in 2003, there was a new corps - I think it was Eklipse from Kentucky - that used Sousaphones in the first show or two of the year because they did not have contras available.

I think they got a dispensation from DCI because of that fact. There was also another corps (Memphis, I think) that had to march one for one contest; and got a fairly steep penalty for usage of unauthorized musical instrument.

I say no, because the pros/cons don't warrant a change... I can see making exceptions for financial reasons, but overall, nope.

Your picture of the sousaphone player in the thread isn't exactly a vote-getter, either.

Maybe if you had a pretty girl in a bikini holding a sousaphone, I may have at least gave it a "maybe". :P

:lolhit:

even I agree w/you on that one Bawker. lol

I say yes when they let woodwinds in. That way it really will be high school band.
