I think we have about 100 this year. Then again, we have a lot of people who haven't shown up at all...

We have about 310 members this year, which makes us the largest marching band in the state. Yes, it is a college band, but it's not as big if you consider that there are over 12,000 students here. Sadly enough, most hs musicians don't continue on here.

We have about 97. We're not gigantic, but we're not tiny either. I think it's a good number.

What division are y'all? we're 6A. The other day when we had no seniors, (seniors come late last day of band camp and we play the fight song for them) we were allegedly still the size of a 4A band.

My HS band was about 120 my freshman year, and it has slowly declined until now, the second year after I left, they march about 86. It's very sad.
On the other hand, my college band marches about 220, so it doesn't worry me all that much.

i eat my words when i said my bd was only writing drill for 250 people. apparently we are marching 280 this year, so im pretty sure we're the biggest band in west tn, if not the whole state (i might be eating my words again on that though).

I've never heard of 6A! The biggest I've seen is either 4A or maybe 5A.

^yeah sometimes we're 5A sometimes we're 6A, depending on the competition. it's weird. we're sometimes the only band in our division, which is kinda less exciting. plus we always go last or near last, so we never get to watch anyone else's show

For concert we maybe have 200ish For marching, we have 90 this year, which is cool with me! Plus, we're up from 80 from last year! I'd rather be in a small band, where people can get to know each other! For marching THIS YEAR: (Last year's numbers in parenthesis) 9 flutes, 1 picc (6 flutes, 1 picc) 5 clarinets (6 clarinets) 6 altos (5 altos) 9 trumpets (maybe 7?) 7 trombones (6 trombones) 4 mellophones (3 mellophones) 3 baritones (3 baritones) 3 tenor saxes (3 tenors) 4 sousas (2 sousas) 18 guard (20 guard) 19 drumline (20 drumline) 2 drum majors (2 drum majors)
