Any current/former students know how difficult it is to join the marching band?

<p>I know they have auditions, but does anyone know what the criteria are? Are the auditions strictly playing-based? Is it sight reading or do they give you audition material? Or do you prepare your own material? Do you have to dance at the audition? Is the audition personality based? Like, do they have to determine if you're "fun" enough to join the LSJUMB?</p>

<p>Literally anyone can join the band, they’d love to have you. No experience necessary! (really, they mean that). The only group that auditions is the drum line and the trumpet soloist for the national anthem.</p>
