In reply to Kirks post "nope its not. at my school we say that sports dont need other sports to get em seen. like dancers dance at halftime of football games...therefore it aint a sport. marching band plays at bball games or whatever...therefore its not a sport. ".

Marching Band people at my school like to think of playing at football games extra practice. Do you think we realy want to march at those? Not really. But, getting used to a crowd gets people used to it so freshman dont freak at competitions

If You think Marching Band isnt a sport you need to come to camps or practices. 2 months burning in the sun for hours and hours every day with instrument doing drill and basic non-stop, no breaks with instruments gets tough.And thats BEFORE the real season starts. Drumline normally has extra than the rest of the band too. I play Bass3 (on drumline),...which is basically the hardest instrument to have on. The harness digs into your back and you cant see in front of you and is HEAVY. Then again, flute is the lightest, but holding your arms up at attention during basics for 30 minutes straight makes your arms feel like they are on fire.
