They didn't notify those who sent in tapes saying that they were not invited?

I thought they said auditions were going to be in march?

Something is fishy here...

...but I suppose if they did have auditions a few days ago, what were the results?

I am not an official from the West Point Band, nor am I a tubist with them. tankthetuba was mistaken. There is nothing fishy going on. anonymous131 summed it up correctly, but just to clarify the audition has not happened yet.

Once again, I am in no way an official here at West Point... I'm not sure how many of the band member here frequent the board, so I'll tell what little I know... There was no hire this time. I am sure the dates for tapes and the audition itself will be announced in the near future.
