Quite! I got to go down to Disneyworld with the High School Marching Band (In case you're wondering, we're somewhere in the range of ~250 people, and we're one of the only large bands in our area.  Others average on 30.  Also, we're not all band geeks, we're too big)

I was amazed at the level of freedom they gave us, and my friends and I went to most of the parks in the 4 1/2 days we were there. 

How was yours?

Depending on where you go in Virginia, we might make the same trip (Although I'm not going, it's pretty expensive and I've heard it's not that fun)

We were there on Friday (Left for the airport at 2AM and waited there until our plane at 7:30AM.  We got to spend basically 10:00 onwards in the parks.  We stayed there until Monday.  We weren't there for over a week because we had only had one parade to do, (same for the Orchestra and Choir) and it's pretty expensive to stay longer than you need in Disney.

No, we're only do pretty local parades. I think the farthest away we travel for a parade is 40 minutes.  I would provide a video of us playing but there aren't many good quality ones.  If you really want to I will, though.

This is from last year so I'm not in it, and if the different sections sound a little 'off'  it's because the front and back of the band are playing the same thing, but since the back of the band is farther away, there is a delay in the sound.  (It happens when we're on the football field because we're take the entire thing up) 

Also, I'm a Tenor Sax, we're one of the first instruments you can see!

it makes me very envious to see a band that has more than 1 tuba and has a euphonium at all!
