Cool    I've seen a cool marching band, but I forget what school it was    I don't know anyone in a marching band.

I play trumpet in my highschool's marching band. I'm typing this as I got back from it. First we were playing at a college game, then we took a bus to a University to do a marching band competition. 14 hour day, ugh. But it was worth it. And we didn't win/place it was a state competition, so there was some really tough bands.

Sounds tiring! Our first competition is next week.

Mine doesn't, but it has an orchestra 

Nintendo music and marching music might be an awesome combination though, good luck with that.

No, but some use xylophones, whose design is similar to that of the piano.

Piano is cool! Actually, our show this year uses 2 pianos! Marching bands usually have "pits," which are in front of the field and are made of of people who play non-marching instruments like timpani, gong, and pianos. The last 2 years our shows have used a piano and this year it uses two.

Pits don't use pianos.

Not all do, but ours does. Last year we also had a sitar in our pit.

pep band... the only time we march in in parades    and we aren't great at that.  (marching that is- we play well)

Marching in a parade sounds fun!  We were going to march in a holiday parade last year, but we didn't for some reason.

Home-schoolers don't have band

But he's already posted, lol.

Usatt's your brother? 

[spockmoment]Logically, your reply to that statement was useless. The child has already said Ussat is his brother, rendering your question redundant.[/spockmoment]

Live long and prosper. \\//
