Here's the scoop:
17 people invited, 5 advanced to the finals.
Those 5 were:
Bud Holmes
Kyle Heron
Phillip Bloomer
Mary MacKinnon
(I don't remember # 5's name)
Bud Homes won, Kyle Heron was runner up, and Phillip Bloomer was 2nd runner up.
I was not at the audition.. my soon to be departed for Alaska stand partner was there. I got the distinct pleasure of playing an outdoor ceremony on Sousaphone, back here in Dayton. He said the talent pool was quite high all around.
I'm looking forward to having a new tubist to sit next to in the near future!
Congrats everyone who got through the taped round, and especially to Bud!

John Rider volunteered for the quintet spot in the band stationed in Alaska.
I will surely miss him. He's incredibly easy to play next to!
I am looking forward to having someone new in the section. You've got some big musical shoes to fill!
