Honestly, all he needs is a school of music with a decent budget. An adequate player can get a partial scholarship first year, then prove themselves during the year, and increase approaching renewal review. If a school wants him, they’ll make a way. Some schools run band scholarships backdoor from the athletic department...

These guys and gals gave me hooked. They are so wonderful as a group and every one bringing their A game, not just the dudes at the front. I'm not from USA so have never seen this and don't understand the protocol behind it but I am blown away by how wonderful it is. In New Zealand High school rugby teams do mass haka (a traditional war dance laying down the challenge to an opponent - are you good enough?) and they can be spine tingling. Reccomend checking out videos of them. I'm gonna keep my eye on this new marching out thing. Dang it's fine.
