When I got to college, I had learned to play the trumpet from my music teacher in high school. I went to UMass Amherst, and was on the trumpet line. However, when I started marching with the Cadets Drum and Bugle Corp, I got switched to trombone. Does that answer your question?
Ahh, don't say you're old! You're 35 years young!!
Percussion is beautiful. It's good to have another percussionist on the boards.
I'm mostly a marimba player.
YOU MARCHED CADETS?!
OH MY GOD. The drill writer for the cadets is my old instructor's uncle and he wrote for our band.
And the marching instructor is with the Cadets right now.
Let's be best friends. [=

Yes, I am old, haha. And yes, I did march with The Cadets. The one thing my students always call me on is that when I go to show them something about marching, I still step off with my right foot. And sure, why not? I enjoy making new friends. The first time I went to college, I majored in percussion and double bass, lol.

Anyway, welcome

My band started stepping off with thei right foot this year because he wants them to be like a drum corp. The Cadets, to be exact.
New friends are nice.
And you and I seem like we're going to have a lot in common.

No, it's always censored just so it ISN'T used that way.

My college doesn't have a band.
My number one had a band but it was too expensive.
I don't want to be in this school's pep band. I want to march. Or be in pit.
Crash cymbals only keep my satisfied for so long.
SUNY Fredonia is the school I attend.
