Marching Bands.  You either love 'em or hate 'em.   When I was a youngster I was in a marching band.  Most of the time I played trumpet but one year I agreed to play Tuba.   I have some fond memories of that time period and I remember the challenges of playing and marching in precision formation at the same time - being aware to alway keep the horn pointed to the home crowd unless there was a need for quieter sound then we could face the direction we were marching in.   No easy task. 
We occasionally played band arrangements of pop songs by groups like Chicago etc.   

It was about this time in my life when the band RUSH burst on the scene being championed on local FM radio.   Today I wanted to pay tribute to RUSH and marching band.  
Here is a fun clip of the Ohio State University Marching Buckeye Band playing a medley of RUSH classics.   Enjoy.  I will not post any videos by RUSH because there would be too many to feature.   When watching this video remember that in addition to playing the band members are counting steps and direction at the same time.    Just great fun. 

As a side note: the band always end their halftime shows marching to write out the word Ohio in script.
