		<description>There&#039;s actually a DCI contest in Chesapeake each summer, not a very big one, but Madison Scouts came last year.  Blue Devils rock. :)

		<description>I think it&#039;s sad so many schools have dropped their music programs. 
Loved your list. Happy T13!

I especially loved number 13.

Have a great day!

		<description>My college boyfriend was offered a spot playing trumpet with the Blue Devils.  He didn&#039;t take it.  I&#039;ve never understood why.</description>

		<description>I&#039;ve taken piano lessons (I was okay), guitar lessons (guitar neck was too big for my tiny hands...and I have this weird non-functioning joint.  Sigh.  No Lute lessons for me.), Recorder lessons (again with the okay), Drums! (loved them.  didn&#039;t suck.), and Choir (I can sing.)

So, yay for the boys and yay for music in general.  Great post, by the way. I love all the angles you managed to squeeze in.
