Went to a lot of high school concerts(band parent not player) and never heard this one. Our HS Band did a first rate job on The National March however, which is not easy.

>>If you were ever in a high school band..

I was... un-talented cover band that covered every song by Guns N Roses and Metallica but wasted every gig money on booze. Scraped every ounce of what I saved for college.

Daughter’s high school inaugural band (1st year) did “Best of Queen” and took first place all over town. :)

1st or 2nd grade maybe.
In High School we played “John Phillips Sousa”, All the Big Band Jazz, New Orleans Jazz, Rock and Roll and all the top Universities “Fight Songs”

What kind of school did you go to?

I don’t remember playing that particular tune in HS band, but it sure is a possibility that we did.
