Virginia Tech is such a nice school in a beautiful part of the country. Too bad 95% of the students/alumni are d-bags from northern virginia. Maybe the sousaphone players are in the other 5%

@eddyrayy Thanks, I know its a contra I just couldn't think of the word. I know that the "tuba" is a category, but he was being a bit of a smart ass and I thought I would put him in his place. I just got annoyed with the way he had said it. When most people hear tuba they think of the concert Bb Tuba, not a Sousaphone, the point was that they may be interchangeable, but they are not the same instrument. That was the whole point, I never meant to start a petty youtube fight, haha.

correction to you too. What you're calling a marching tuba is called a contra.
the instrument in this video is a sousaphone. they're both very common in
marching bands everywhere. the tuba is technically the large
three valved instrument you see in a concert setting. however Tuba broadly
refers to sousaphones, contras, miraphones, and the standard BB-flat concert
tuba. tuba is the category, while sousaphones, contras,
miraphones, etc. are the sub categories if that helps you

@trevorlange Correction, they are not the same. In marching band if you say "tuba" you are referring to the marching tuba which looks like a concert tuba that is being played on the persons shoulder. A sousaphone is an instrument that wraps around the players body with the bell over the left shoulder. Yes, both instruments do have the same fingerings and can be interchangeable with one another if necessary, but they are not the same instrument.
CORRECTION! - Sousaphones*!
