Two hundred of them? Three? It's the largest band in school history. Every year's band is the largest band in school history. Every year, there are more of them. Every year, they're louder.
They brag about it like it's better, but none of them know how good they have it. All they are is just "them", not him and her and you and me. The more of them there are, the more they blend into nothingness. And if one of them plays the wrong note, nobody will know.
But if I sing the wrong words, the whole stadium will hear.
