"Don't play sousaphone on a windy day" Director: this band rehearsal might be a little windy(alot) but it will be fine * The whole sousaphone section fall's on concrete * Me: Well don't go yelling at us it's your fault man

I love how sarcastic you sound while telling us how to not hold a sousaphone

Someone threw a soggy bagel in my sousaphone bell.

4:14 That was me at Band Camp Yesterday 🤣

3:56 i just ended this mans whole career

i'm not a tuba player but i understand

My tuba friends and I here at IU can agree to every bit of this. Watched it, and nearly died. The accuracy is just perfect

I can totally relate to #4. Before the Den (student cheer section) got their own section of bleachers for football games, they were neck and neck with the band. Very difficult to see the BD conducting pieces, but was fun to blast 7 Nation Army into my ex’s ears🤣. One game, after our halftime show, I went to eat dinner at the concession stand (we always get 3rd quarter off). Came back to play my sousa like nothing happened. About 5 minutes left in the 4th quarter, I smelled something off-putting like rotten meat. I take it off and to my dismay, someone from the den decided to shove a hotdog down my bell. It reeked so I took it out and tossed it into the crowd of students. Short story long, that’s why they moved over a section

When Harvey Phillips was in high school he used to ride his bicycle with a sousaphone on his shoulder so he could take the horn home to practice. Practice paid off for Harvey Phillips, the Paganini of the tuba.

I mean, I play Sousa and I can confirm that all players in my section have indeed done all of these *including me* and honesty he not wrong 😶

Being the stupid tuba player I am I can relate to all of these.

10.a don't quit, because it's really fun. 10.b don't quit because there is one sousa and one bari sax in a band of 120

Why is the “whip nae nae part basically just tuba swings

I love music band. I played 3 different instruments and I play in several music groups.

So underrated! You Deserve more subs 😂🤩

Tuba gang

At my school they used to do number 5 for some sort of event after band camp was done, but they stopped it because i think it was doing the marching band show in the gym and people passed out, so I never got to do number 5, but one of the tubas who I know was one person who passed out, or just fell.

2:31 I died

2 things you should do with a sousaphone, 1: Return it to its case indefinitely 2. Get a contra/marching tuba instead because it’s the better type of tuba to march with and it will also prepare you for DCI. Friendly banter aside, I enjoyed your video and I also have respect for sousaphone players because it is probably more taxing on your back and spine over time and I can imagine that it’s probably more cumbersome to march around in.

I have to march every day, I always fall over while backwards marching

number 10 needs to be told to every single marching band kid, you won’t believe how many people we’ve had quit in 3 years

Eli: runs into doorway Me: Absolutely pissed my pants

I’m a tubist and I love it my band camp starts Monday the 17th

I'm doing band camp this and next week. It's 8 to 4 and holy shit Sousa is tough for this show

I play tuba and everyone all of a sudden start pressing the buttons also love this video and now I'm subcribed

As a Sousaphone for marching band, I agree. Sousa-bros for life man

dang band camp is a thing why am i commenting now it’s 1 am

I remember in sixth grade, thinking the three valve tubas were SO heavy... Yea now i use the sousaphone/4 valve tubas and umm...

Wym goth shoulders on the outside feels great

I like it 😂

Last time some one held my valve down I got my practice horn out and gave him a trumpet high-five (you don’t need to know what that is) and he had a bruise for about 2 weeks and also I didn’t have to get a new horn it was ok(if you couldn’t tell this was a joke I would never do anything go hurt any instrument)

yeah dude during practice in the morning people love to push my valves.

I need to know how to wear a Sousaphone COMFORTABLY

This guy is the origin of memes

When your a 5’3 tubist so you don’t have to bend or turn the bell when you walk through the doorway 💅

But what things should you NOT do with a trombone?! 🤔

You forgot "Use a breath mint (not gum) before playing".

You look like Carmen Merrill

Perhaps you should by your own Sousaphone.
