Yeah, My freind who moved away played trumpet, and we'd play Jazz all the time. My favorite was "Just a closer Walk with Thee" because he liked the back-up line so, i got the melody all the time. This was the horn i used all the time.
Yeah, thats me...

Good lookin' horn. I thought bass guys wore some kind of beanie because the regular hat wouldn't fit.
You would really impress me if you marched with the 20J.

The high school and university marching band I marched in we wore the floppy hats so the corp hats wouldn't bang against the horn, which would 1) make them unsteady on our head, 2) ding up the finish where you could see it 3) because we just had to do something different as we could make the excuses to get by with it.

...The cute chick with the drums in the first picture?? Those are quints...hince quintest. lol
yeah, i had to march with the 20j a few times because big silver was in the shop. It was fun..for the first 20 minutes. then, it hurt. But, up in the stands when i could prop it on my leg, i got the "to loud" hand so many times lol. I love the power.
I wore a beret. But, i lost it
and my band director said it didnt matter, so i just tie my hair back now.

Kind of off topic, but Andrew... where are you considering going to college? I know you don't graduate for another two years, but it's never too soon to start looking.
