It has been another terrific season! All the rookies who joined the Pride Of Minnesota's Tuba section showed their true colors of maroon and gold. I look forward to being a part of this section next year perhaps in a leadership role for our section.
If you have any questions about the Pride's Tubas, please email them to me using the contact form on the left and I will get back to you in a timely manner.

So the Gophers ended up losing to Texas Tech and coach Glen Mason made bowl history by allowing Texas Tech to come back from a 38-7 lead with 7:47 remaining in the third quarter. Joel Maturi quickly thereafter fired Mason and appointed Tim Brewster as the head coach. Brewster was formerly a tight end coach for the Denver Broncos, is five years away from the college game, and has never been a head coach before. This should be fun...
Arizona was surprisingly cold and rainy for most of the time we were there but was fun none-the-less. As usual, if you have any picture you would like on the site let me know through the contact bar on the left (use the "technical" option).
For those of you interested in joining the tuba section, I will be posting more information as it becomes available for next year so keep checking back. Also, check out the pride's main site at http://music.umn.edu/marchingband/.

Looks like we're playing Texas Tech in the Insight Bowl. I found a bit out about their marching band called the "Goin' Band From Raiderland".
Here's a link to their marching band:

Here's a link to their drumline web-page (can't find the tuba site...):

Sorry I never got the running tally of the Gophers up, but here's the final.
| Big Ten | Overall | |
| Win | 3 | 6 |
| Loss | 5 | 6 |
| Pct. | .375 | .500 |
I'd also like to thank all you guys/gals for making this year great! I'm proud to be a part of this band and especially this section. The hardest part is over! Let's keep the energy up and rock the indoor concert (and possibly a trip to AZ?!?!)!

Welp, it's been a crazy semester so far, but looks like we'll get rosters up after all!! Everybody remember to send me the answers to those questions! We'll slowly but surely get this project going again. Keep checking back!

Had to take down the drunkwall. Don't you just hate those bots? I knew as much would happen anyway. Once I get site authentication working it'll be back up and we won't have to worry about spammers. Until then you have the forums.

Way to eat up the freshmen! I hope everyone got at least three shirts. If you didn't, your life is a waste. Btw: Everybody come scoop Annie Bunkers at the rec center any week night save for Friday.

Looks like drunk wall is up. Give it a shot folks and send me any suggestions!
Edit: Sorry 'bout that IE glitch. Should be working again now.

Finally got internet explorer to show the dropdown menus. Good times. Muliple levels of dropdowns isn't working yet, but I have a good idea of how to make it work so that shouldn't be too much of a problem.
Time to start adding some content! Email me pictures you want on the site. Obviously I won't be putting up Goatse, but just about anything else would go. Also send me the context of the picture and/or subtitle for it.

Looks like some of the site coding doesn't work in I.E. Shocking! [end sarcasm]. I recommend using firefox which can be found here...

Hey Folks,
So this layout is a bit rushed as I wanted to get it up before spat camp, but you get the general idea. Please be patient as I try to move over data to the new layout. Many things in the works so stay tuned!
