Christmas shopping is hard. People in our activity are weird unique. We can be difficult to shop for. We get it.

That’s why we’ve taken the liberty of curating probably the best gift guide ever (read: 2018) for that marching arts person in your life.

So here we go!

On the first day of Christmas, Pyware said to me, “go get a subscription to UDB.”

It’s almost 2019. Are you still printing out your drill? If so, make your New Year’s resolution to go paperless. Our friends at Ultimate Drill Book have created a fantastic app that makes both teaching and learning a show easy, fun, and best of all, efficient.

You get your drill (exported via yours truly, by the way):

You get your sheet music:

And rumor has it there’s some pretty awesome features on the horizon. UDBapp is quickly becoming the perfect rehearsal tool.

If it all sounds too good to be true, don’t take our word for it; swing by their website and checkout the ever-growing customer list (spoiler alert: many of the world’s top marching ensembles that trust their show with Pyware also depend on the UDBapp to get said show on the field).
