I thought *sousaphone* was the proper term for *tuba*
No?
Edit: From wiki- 'A sousaphone is a type of tuba...'
NOT to say wikipedia is the last word on anything. The Bayou Brass Band had a big dude named Chuey(sp?)on Sousaphone, if I'm not mistaken. Very funky.

No? | They're different. The Sousaphone is probably what you're thinking of when you see a marching band. |

^ sousaphone 
^ tuba.
It's been about 30 years since I played either.That said,if I was playing with a New Orleans brass band,sousaphone.Otherwise,tuba.
I vote carrots.

and yes, it is a chick magnet. I can't tell you how many hot girls have came up to me and asked if it was heavy.  One of those curious girls is currently in a relationship with me.

I played both Sousaphone and Concert Tuba but had the opportunity to play a contra at one of our competitions and loved every minute of it.

Yeah great for you guys if it got you chicks, I guess a girl playing this big brass horn around scared off the guys. *sigh*
I can at least say I was Trabuco Hills High FIRST girl tuba player.
