When I marched with the University of Southern Mississippi marching band, we had about 315 people. I thought we were a big band until we did an exhibition show at a high school contest in Pensacola-Tate High School had almost 400 in their band! That's by far the biggest HS band I've seen-& they're good too!

Ok everybody. Now qualify band size with school level. (HS, college, DCI, DCA) I'm a highschool band. I wanted a Monty Python quote but it was too many chars... 'We are what we repeatedly do. Excellence, therefore, is not an act, but a habit.' -Aristotle. 'Spell it right. Or else.' -El Booj

Because - That way we know how big the band is with respect to the organization. For example, a 150 person band is a decent sized band. A band the size of Wilk's is big for a highschool, but about the right size for a big ten school. I wanted a Monty Python quote but it was too many chars... 'We are what we repeatedly do.

Well, here in Texas... Yeah, when I was living in Ohio, we had an 80 odd person band includin colorguard and we were pretty sizeable for the area. We played against a team in Columbus where the entire band was like 10 people... I wanted a Monty Python quote but it was too many chars... 'We are what we repeatedly do.

yea, i do look young. I've always been the shortest on the snare line. But size does not equal skill level, remember that....I'm sure some of those college kids (SMSU) were kicking themselves in the ass when they found out the L.e.a.P. has eigth graders in the group after we beat them.

Hey you may look young but at least it looks appropriate when YOU wear that uniform; I look like a crossdresser: http://www.photoreflect.com/scripts/prsm.dll?eventorder?photo=04ER009F0P0004&start=0&album=0&adjust=-1 BTW I don't know if you saw them as SMSU came back to the gym to fold their tarp but they actually had a distinctly pissed look on their faces... although I'm not sure if it was about they eighth grader thing, as they probably didn't know their scores yet. By the way, according to the schedule, our bus leaves for world championships in approximately 19 days, 6 hours, 56 minutes, and 12 seconds...
