In this mini episode, Scott opens up the mailbag to tackle a thoughtful and timely question: why are some school marching bands shifting away from competition and toward becoming showcase ensembles? He breaks down the many factors behind this trend—logistical, educational, financial, and cultural—proving it's not as simple as it may seem. Chris then shares some of the fantastic feedback the Band Dads have received from listeners over the past few weeks (thank you!), and the duo wraps things up with a teaser for Episode 8: A (Useless) Year in Review. That full episode drops May 12th and will take a reflective—and probably ridiculous—look back at the year in band.
