So the marching season has just recently started for me, and I was wondering if we have any people on the Escapist who are/were also members of a marching band. Tell us about the program you are in, whether for school or for fun!
Poll: Any Escapists in Marching Band?

I was in marching band (which turned into symphonic for spring semester) all through high school. Had a really weird start, that did. Our initial band director quit a month in, no one else could be found, so our school book clerk stepped in. Pretty much saved the band singlehandedly, he did.
We even managed to win a fairly large regional competition in my senior year, for our Irish-themed field show.
I was even first-chair clarinet starting from my sophomore year. Mainly because all of our seniors dropped, but still, held that position for two and a half years.

The first high school I went to was too small to have a marching band. Where I finished high school though I was able to play Bass Guitar/Drumline in the marching band.
When I was younger my mum tried to get my brothers and I involved in the community so we joined the local marching band. My oldest brother played the drum, my other brother the flute and I due to my complete lack of musical ability ended up, wait for it, playing the triangle. I am proud.
