All About Learning To Play An Instrument

 

This lens is going to hold many different links and useful bits about a subject near and dear to my heart, being a musician in the school band.  Being a Band Geek used to have a bad connotation to it, but these days band geeks have come out of their shells (Bless you, "American Pie!") and let it be known that playing in Band can be every bit as studly as tossing a piece of leather around a football field.

As we approach the summer months look for me to feature more and more marching band stuff here, including information and videos about Drum Corps International (DCI).   

Band Geeks Unite!  Oh, and send me ideas for other things you would like to see on here!
