AUDITIONS held at Scott AFB, IL:

Unlike the premier bands located at Joint Base Anacostia-Bolling in Washington D.C. and Peterson Space Force Base in Colorado Springs, CO, the Air Force regional bands do not hold auditions for specific locations or vacancies; you are auditioning for entrance into the regional band career field as an Air Force Airman and musician and could be stationed at any one of our other regional band locations.

Starting salary: Rank of E-3, $46-$58K annually 
(varies with pay allowances, dependents (spouse & children) and location)
