Anyone who has ever been involved in an award winning High School Band knows that it takes hours of practice to make the grade. This means High School Bands must get up early to get it done. Many times as daylight savings time sets in they are practicing before sunrise, in the dark. But with school budgets strapped they may find that the School District will not turn on the stadium lights for them to practice to become perfect. Without perfection they cannot win. Additionally High School traveling and competing bands have huge budgets in excess of $65,000 per year.

Travel costs have gone up too and there is only so much the High School Bands can earn doing fundraisers to pay for these costs yet still have time to practice. School Buses use diesel fuel and those costs are now in excess of $3.15 per gallon. The kids cannot adequately absorb these costs and it is really not safe to be doing all this stuff in the dark.

I propose that we use beat of the drums and sounds of the band along with alternative energy too power up the lights for the kids using the vibrational energy of the machinery and refinery itself. How so you ask? By placing large 4? X 8? sandwich sheets with a taunt film on the vibrational side and small copper lined tubes; hundreds of these tubes running perpendicular to the sheets, with magnets inside bouncing back and forth. These magnets will charge a capacitor and be hooked up to an LED lighting system using fiber optics or reflectors, each one hooked up to a .2 to .5 watt light. With hundreds of thousands of lights hooked up in a composite format it will light up the lights needed for these early morning or after school night time practices without the light pollution associated with streetlights, stadium lights or in large cities.

Currently this technology is being used in those little flashlights you see advertised on television that you shake and they light, but you never need batteries. This idea of lighting up the early morning practice is using that technology on a larger scale with miniaturized parts making up the guts between the sandwich sheets. Let there be light, thru vibrational energy and there was. Think on it.
