And I am #2! Woo-hoo! Highest ranking to date on this leaderboard. (ok, I know it's only January. But still.)

Solved and submitted
Heck, even could suggest a non-musical clue that could be a musical clue.

Got it. There were some fun clues in here too. 40A and 44A were particularly clever I thought. 50A was one of those annoying "could be two things equally well and I always put in the wrong one" clues.

Got a late start but I'm on the board. Had it less than halfway through the grid.

On the board. Delayed a bit because I thought I heard a Sousa march in the distance.
