Your top three, especially in the public domain?
I'm looking for a pile of fun(ish) music to print out and sight-read.
Lots of stuff on this excellent database:
http://www.bandmusicpdf.org/ but kind of slow downloading and perusing each and every piece!

My first thought: Oh man, this is great, why haven't I heard this recently!?
My second thought: Have I heard any bands recently that could play this without killing it?

Colonel Boogie most certainly. BBb basses should take the 2nd strain an octave down.

you could do worse than look at the march literature of the Salvation Army, some of the best include, Montreal Citadel, The Liberator, Cairo Red Shield, Rosehill, the Fount and so on and on, many with some fantastic writing for the low brass

I don't know that it necessarily FEATURES tuba (does have a nice low brass soli), but Florentiner March is one of my favorites. It is in the public domain, too.

Tchaik 6, mvt. 3
Embarrasses many audiences who forget that there's another movement to follow.
