[nabs-l] Marching Band

[Serena]

Hi David,

I was in the concert band and pep band in high school, but we didn't march 
cuz my teacher hated marching bands!  I played percussion and was lucky 
enough to have a couple of great friends who gave me guidance on what 
instrument to play on each song and cued me (told me when to start playing) 
on the songs.

Serena
