Michigan Today has a story about "Lets Go Blue" that is worth reading (and listening - it includes a podcast with Albert Ahronheim!)
I made some comments on Michigan Today and posted some related things in other places, but I am too busy and/or lazy to repeat them here, so for now here are the links:

Happy International Tuba Day!
Today is International Tuba Day (happens every year on that first Friday in May.)
My contribution to this year's celebration is my favorite sousaphone photo.
I took this at break time during a Rose Bowl rehearsal, probably in 1978. In those days the Michigan Marching Band stayed in a dorm on the UCLA campus and rehearsed on the IM sports field.
More info about International Tuba Day on the Tuba Day web site.
