"...the only instrument you know will not be represented on a orchestra audition committee is the tuba. (There's only one and that guy just left!)"
I've personally never heard of (nor experienced) an audition panel that didn't include a representative of the relevant instrument being auditioned (i.e. tuba). Either the 'guy who just left', or an invited guest. Makes sense to me! Not that that means it'll be all about 'gear'.
