Just to share the other side of the coin, my son was also very active in band/marching band in school. I am ‘a little’ disappointed that he has decided not to participate in Marching Band. (He is a freshman this year.) He, on the other hand, is very happy that he chose not to. Having more time on his hands has given him the opportunity to join a couple other clubs and participate in other areas of interest. He is also a member of one of the concert ensembles - so he is getting his music ‘fix’ that way. He has no regrets and I am glad I didn’t try to push him into MDB.

Don’t get me wrong…I think MDB is awesome and I still wish I could see my son marching in it…but know that there are many other ways the kids can participate in music should they decide that MDB might be too time consuming.
