I think the one thing the tuba elite tend to forget is that no matter how corny, stupid and useless marching band is, it is what the majority of people see of our programs, it recruits students into our programs and it gives administrators a reason to give us money to spend on our concert and jazz bands. If you don't encourage you students to march, fine. Just don't be surprised when it starts getting harder and harder to recruit or when budget cuts force YOU out of a job. Without us out here marching these kids around you asses wouldn't have students to teach or anybody who gives a shit about hearing you play. My $.02.
