We never had a drummer bus... only guard. But they have other people on the bus too, not just their chatty selves. It's collectively known as "party bus 5".

We have five buses for everybody minus guard, and one little bus for guard/equipment.

We have three buses. Usually bus one is the drummer bus, and then fitting in anyone else who wants to be on it. Next is bus two, where a lot of the most guard/freshman/some sophies/some juniors are. It's usually the quiet bus, but me and my friends turned that around =D. The third bus is mostly upperclassman, and LOTS of brass.

We have 7 buses.
the 7th one is the guard bus.
There's no set drum bus, but they usually sign up for the same bus.

7-9 Buses, this past season we got a mini bus because of our 'cripple pit'- part way through the season we had two peolpe on crutches and three in wheelchairs. If the dance team goes to the game they just squish onto the band buses- not that we have the room anyways but the cheerleaders throw too much of a fuss.
On the last full bus the sousas are put in the front 14 seats. We have a trailer for the perc and guard equipment and then for concert equipment on offsite concerts in the offseason but that's really crowded and pretty scary to pack and unpack.

Hm. We have about ... 6 or 7 buses, the last two being a drumline bus and a guard bus. No one else allowed on those buses (the drum majors switch buses every game, so I don't know about them).

We've got two busses, one is a "drumline" bus, and the other is a "guard" bus. All other players sit on one or the other. I prefer the drumline bus, just because the guard bus smells heavily of hair products.

I'm guessing the reason this is this way is because you put the drums, etc. one the buses while we carry them in the Enterprise Rent-a- Truck that is pretty much permanently assigned to our band? (Our DM's have assigned spots according to order- head DM is bus 1, assistant is bus 2, and so on down to Party Bus 5 (I feel soo sorry for Kara...) We may only have 4 buses this year though. I'm thinking we should completely scrap buses for home games and march down Katyland to Rhoads Stadium about 2 hrs before the game just because we can - and so that the band will get more attention in our attendance zone and hence more potential future members... |

You guys with your giant bands needing tons of buses....
We have three buses in all. One 7th grade-9th grade, the second 10th-12th, and the third is one with most the back seats removed and shelves put in for instruments.
We also have a little U Haul type thing for pit and drumline equipment. Parents carry trailers with the rest.
