Ha! On a cold fall night here in northern Ohio, I bet the instruments would be close to E because of the frigid temperature. Besides, if the spectators have enough booze in them, the only thing that matters is sheer volume. As for the blaring of the bell next to my ear, it would be just like high-school again. The trombonist who used to stand directly behind me during our band's pre-game show used to play so loud into the back of my head that I wouldn't be suprised if he saw a little blood in his urine after the show. Besides... cramping fingers, ringing ears. That's what marching band was all about *grin*, as I remember it.

You would get a very hard time, flying with the Valkyries in E using these marching piccolo tubas in E-flat. I bet, you would have to get "finger repair" after the first two hours practise time. How about the bell blaring next to your ear ???? -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Friday, March 12, 2004 6:59 AM To: The Horn List Subject: Re: [Hornlist] The Oddest Oddball Yet Oh great! A marching Wagner tuba. Nothing like a little Wagner during halftime. Although...... Flight of the Valkyries would be amazing to start off a show.
