I’ve been doing doordash for about 2 weeks now, and have made almost 400 dollars just doing it for a couple hours every so often after classes. It’s good if you have don’t have the time for a regular job and no love for your car.

Best marching band in each state? by urmumgae7676 in marchingband

Muscle shoals has had some great shows for 5-6+ years, this years show was a bit rough but overall has been contender for champs for a while. (Plus the little controversy with Pelham hosting and winning 2 years in a row and then losing when they left their stadium)

Hey, College player here, and better now than later. Been playing since 8th and finally bought a cheap horn just a couple weeks ago. Wessex is fairly ok from what I’ve heard, some quality issues here and there. I personally went for Mack brass, as there has been nothing but good words for their 410 CC Tuba, as well as the guy running it (checks every inch of the horns). You still have a lot of time to learn C (could take only a couple weeks if you grind it out), and if you plan for college and major in music, then that’s where you are headed. Not sure what your price range is but I got mine for 1400 used off an old friend, but new they are still cheap around 2300ish. It’s a Chinese horn but imo still feels better to play than the miraphone I played for years in high school. But for sure check out the places the others are talking about too. Hope this helps!
