Band Cramp  (English, Paperback, Duncan Edgar)

For 16 year old delinquent, Gareth Firkins, a good time is stealing instruments from the local drum and bugle corps. However, when his luck runs short, Gareth is faced with community service in the most unlikely of areas - the very band he stole from. But corps director Chase Diggby doesn't like his newcomer at all, pushing Gareth to his limit. Wishing to desperately make amends and prove to everyone that he isn't just another yob, Gareth sets out to survive a season with Adonis drum and bugle corps, the marching band from hell. Question is...can he do it?
