REAL favorite instrument poll

[JimF-LowBari]

Gotta go with the only instruments I ever played in corps Bari and (parade) Euph.

After all the "Bar-O-Tone" was the first voice added to the original straight bugles (ca 1930).

So you now know what to blame in this whole "evolution" deal. ^0^

Edit #1: We had a mix of Mellos and French Horns as mid voice in late '70s.

Edit #2: Smack that gong Ben... Then play with your bongos. :P

details...

if people had not decided to add instruments to the old drum and bugle corps, which over time changed into marching contras and whatnot, would there be a contra?

heck, if people did did not even have the military bands with bugles, would there be a contra?

P.S i'm not trying to start something. I just want to prove my point.

Without a contra, there's still drum corps. Without drum corps, there's no contra.
