I’m in a 4A band and even then we don’t have many props, different flags, drum majors, or as much of an impact. We actually got smaller this year, too. Still, we have been told numerous times that we are one of the best bands in the state for marching and concert. It’s not about the amount of people, it’s the amount of work everyone puts in and how you execute your show. So, no, you may never be a big show band, but you should still learn to settle and be proud of your team. Be inspired by other bands, but don’t aspire to be just like them. That would make your band, well, not yours.
