Hello, I have an audition this November, just wondered if anyone else does as well?

I play marching bell/marimba and side drum so (this might sound a daft question) do I need to bring all these to the audition?

Hi Chaz, you might want to bring your own sticks/beaters but not the actual instruments. We don't have Marching Bells but I'm sure there will be something suitable for you to tinkle. We have plenty of drums

Sorry about that....I'm back in control now.....

As said by Admin, just go along, relax and be open minded as to what you may be offered as they may see potential in you for other musical instruments.

....and if all else fails, keep singing for the Terriers in the Cow Shed on a Saturday afternoon!

Good luck, Zed
