Okay. So I am looking to learn a solo for my state's PAS festival next spring. I am a collegiate level student. Currently intermediate level, but I'm getting better. I am taking lessons from a guy who taught snare for the Scouts in the mid 90's. Our plan is to have my instructor write my solo piece as something to challenge me. But I am fairly sure that my local PAS chapter requires all soloists to play published work.
I'd like to find a good solo as a back up plan. I would appreciate any input you have. If you could recommend a few intermediate to advanced solos, and where I can purchase them, I would be very grateful.
Thanks

So, i've got this mylar marching snare that sounds horrible. I can make it sound decent but the overtones that it has are horrible. It rings more than a set of tenors. Also, the snare wire is broken. I tried using a set of Gibraltar replacement snares but they wouldn't help. Basically, I need the best tuning tips that you've got. I'll post pics up later.

I recently came upon the acquisition of an energy shot, and was wondering when the proper time to use it is. I am planning on using it for a fitness test i have to do. So should i take it before i begin (and if so how long before), or should i take it during the test?
I was thinking i would take it about an hour or so before hand.

So, here's the situation:
I was thinking about trying out for sectionleader of our drumline next year, and was wondering, what difference is there between being the section leader of a high school drumline, and a college drumline? Feel free to tell me about anything that comes to mind.
thanks
