My cases have next to nothing in them. Well, they have instruments and mouthpieces, of course, but nothing else except maybe a pencil. ...My mellophone case still has pieces of tinsel from the Parade of Lights my freshman year (you're supposed to decorate your instruments, so mine was completely wrapped in tinsel.)

i'm a flute player so i don't have much space to put random things crying but i do manage to stuff four different cleaning cloths, a cleaning stick, two pencils, a fuzzy stick thing to clean the flute, pad paper (for sticky keys for those who don't know), a plug, a piece of cork (don't ask) my flute (of course) and a cap to cover the mouthpiece end. it has a double case in case you're wondering.

My case is pretty boring. xd I don't have any pictures, but I'll try to get some up.
Lets see...on the outside on the handle is my nametag (I wrote it in third grade, so it's really sloppy xd ), and I have an alto sax ornament tied around it because I'd lose it if we put it on the tree.
My case is leather, with wood underneath. It has a bunch of holes showing the wood, because I hit it into doors all the time because I'm clumsy. :[ I'm hoping to get a new case soon...and convince my parents to get me a beautiful black saxophone that is about 2,000 dollars... xd
On the inside is my saxophone, which has a bunch of scratches on the bell from my super clumsiness from fourth grade. The neck has a couple from bumping it into doors. Surprisingly, the only dent it has is a tiiiiiny dent on the bell. You can barely see it.
I have so many reeds- used and new. Maybe 50. xd I use Vandoren (however you spell it) reeds, 2 1/2, and they work really well. I also have two things of cork grease, a polishing thingy, a couple swabs, and empty reed boxes.
Overall, my case is pretty boring. My folder, though...well, that's a different story.

I wish I could take some of the stuff out, but the only thing in there I don't use often is the extra couple of mouthpieces. Everything else.. I use. Haha

In my case is my lyre, an extra mouthpiece and my euphonium.
The mouthpiece has been there for since my school got the instrument. I use a different mouthpiece.

The only interesting things in my case (aside from my instrument, Shaun, of course), are the bass clarinet neckstraps (they look like something out of some sort of bondage ritual, seriously. I've never used them) and a bottle of water.
The reason the water is interesting? It has been in there since band camp. I'm too afraid to open it, now. xD
I'm totally going to post pictures when I have a camera that works.

Ahah... I don't have any camera, so I'll try to get some up.
My case (not mine, but the corps) fills with a Baritone (of course!), a music sheet from 1992, and a pair of white gloves (not mine, Ardi leaves those gloves in my case)
We have to bring a bag when we practice. I bring blue bag with cherry picture. It fills with a dirty and wrong music sheets (Moondance), a cadet's music book for Baritone and Euphonium, two new music sheets (Cavaliers Chorale and Bach Chorale #1), three pairs of white gloves, two bottles of water, a meal box, and a little gray bag, fills with a cell phone, mp4 players, earphone, medicine for asthma, mirror, comb, candies, hairpin, stainless ring and handmade necklace (my lucky accessories!).

March of the Belgian Parachutists! I've played that before.. twice. XD
What's in my case? My bassoon, a ton of reeds, my seat strap, my neck strap, a hand crutch, stuff you clean it out with, a little bottle to hold water, and an Altoids case to keep my reeds fresh. XD
