Fun Stuff > BAND
umm, marching band?
qtownstegy:
I was a percussionist in high school, and would recommend it. Drummers are the badasses and the girls find it sexy.
You definately need to learn to march in step and on beat, otherwise you will look like a complete retard.

--- Quote from: iamyourpirate ---i started to learn mellophone and it wasn't that ard when you got the keys figured out. but then again, i sounded like a dying moose because i played violin, not mellophone. so if you're going for dying moose, pick mellophone.
there was an electric guitar in a band that came to one of the home games in high school. he just stood near the drum majors with an amp and played.
what about xylaphone or something? anything percussion related would probably be the easiest for you to pick up, just because you don't have to learn all the breathing stuff and keys and whatnot.

I played a Mellotron in my high school marching band. Our band director was Robert Fripp.
StrikeThePostman:
Since you've got a good sense about music, I'd go for playing in the pit (marimba, xylophone, vibraphone, etc). It's best for those people who know how to listen well (since the pit stands at the front of the field and doesn't march). Each of those instruments is fairly easy to learn, and they're all fun. :)
Panbombadil:
Play the bassoon. If that's even applicable to marching band...
But yeah, I played the bassoon for 2 months in junior high for an instrument swap. Awesome two months. I mean who wouldn't want to play a duck?
