42. How many people are in your section?
Freshman year: Color guard? No clue. 20 something, maybe?
Sophomore year: Trumpet. Wanting to say there were 8 members.
Junior year: Total of three mellophones. ^^;;;
Senior year: Pit/Front Ensemble. We got a couple of new people as time went on. By the end of the season there were 10 people. 4 marimbas, 3 vibraphones, 1 timpani player, and 2 auxiliary.

43. Post your favorite instrument from all three different sections (Woodwinds, Brass, and Percussion)…then post your favorite guard equipment. (So post 4 different things!)
Woodwinds: English horn with oboe in a close second.
Brass: French horn.
Percussion: For pit, marimba. For drumline, quads/tenors.
Guard: Even though I never got a chance to use them, I always thought the double flags were pretty (The flags with the smaller and thinner poles that had one flag for each hand).

44. What size reed (woodwind)/mouthpiece (brass) do you use? (and for percussion and color guard people…I guess what size and what kind of drum sticks/mallets you have/use and for color guard…how much your rifles weighs?)
Trumpet: 3C, but started on 7C.
French horn: I'm wanting to say it's somewhere inbetween a shallow and deep cup.
Guard: I had three different show flags, no rifles or sabers.
Percussion: I used a lot of different things.

47. 1st, 2nd, or 3rd chair?
3rd chair for French horn. I liked having 3rd horn, since it was still higher than 2nd horn about half of the time, but still lower than 1st horn.

49. Will you continue music/band during or after college?
Probably not. I would like to get a French horn eventually so I can just play at home or something if I'm in the mood or something. I already own my own trumpet and flute.

Separate posts? Fine... It feels weird doing it this way, though. XD
2. What instrument(s) do you play? (If more than 1, post in separate posts)
I'll just say bassoon, because it's the only instrument I've enjoyed playing and performing.
and I won't be answering the marching band questions, unless they're for the past, because we don't have a marching band.
