I've marched a bit. 4 years at Ocean View High School, three on tuba, a season with Impulse Drum and Bugle Corps.

Last week, someone stole Huntington Park High School’s only tuba.
Ouch.

And as administration dismantled the security on our band room, they(adminstration) explained that it would be cheaper to replace any stolen instruments than to maintain the security. 8-)

Perhaps the administrators know where to find tubas that mysteriously fall off trucks. :P

Cornering the market on "pre-owned" tubas is a unique approach to driving up sales prices of new tubas. Sounds like an inside job. :rotf:
