there are plenty of drum and bugle corps that are always around looking for tuba players...
This is outstanding advice. There are a number of us who've honed our chops/endurance through this alternative...Mike Roylance, Wade (The Elephant...) I think, Sam Pilafian has been workin' the Corps scene, etc...

Tons of playing...and no oompah crap, either. Rather difficult charts.

I'll second Brevard and Michael Grose.

You'll be hard-pressed to find a situation that is better. The Artistic Advisor and Principal conductor is Keith Lockhart of the Boston Pops.

The June 27th concert features Yo-Yo Ma playing the Dvorak Cello Con.

And Bravard is a nice little town.

I am convinced that 90% of the problems with rhythm, tone, intonation, articulation, technique, and overall prowess on the horn are related to air issues.
