<p>marching band? you cant play oboe in marching band!</p>
<p>thats right, you cant 
i play piccolo in the marching band… i think the oboe reed would kill me if i marched! i was a floutist first and play flute in the flute choir and the oboe in band/orchestra </p>
<p>i did once see a picture of an actual marching bassoon and it made me laugh so hard i cried.</p>
<p>im just using my yale essays…I have to write another for chicago and one for princeton, but thats about it. I’ve gone in cycles with my essays…first I thought they were really good…then I thought they were terrible…then I thought they were okay…now I’m liking one a lot and the other one is ehhh…hopefully yale will like them!!</p>
<p>hahahahaha a marching bassoon. wouldnt the reeds just break to easily while marching? (i play sax)</p>
<p>i dont know what they do about reeds… you play alto, tenor or bari? i play alto in the jv jazz band. its such a fun intrument to play.</p>
<p>i play tenor, and yeah its fun. but being drum major is better :P</p>
<p>I marched clarinet freshman year…</p>
<p>drum major … thats hott. </p>
<p>i like clarinets. they are my cousins. saxs arent really related at all, and bassoon are the second cousin twice removed.</p>
<p>bassoons are funny.</p>
<p>hehehe. oboes sit next to bassoons in the orchestra. my best friend plays. sometimes when she plays i start laughing because it sounds so odd.</p>
