Many cities offer a plethora of music experiences on the cheap, including jazz in the parks and local band gigs. But if you are looking for something a little different, consider attending an exhibition by a drum and bugle corps or going to a high school marching band competition.
These experiences are highly entertaining. And the tickets are going to be a lot cheaper than attending the concert of a major act.
Drum Corps International's site offers the schedule of events. Many of these will have seperate websites to purchase tickets to local events. These tickets may range from $10 up to $35 per person depending on the event.
Illinois Marching Online has a comprehensive schedule of events with links to the corresponding websites. So does Marching.com. Depending on the event, tickets will probably range from $10 up to over $100. I'd say that anything that costs over $20 per ticket, save your money. But many of the local events will be cheaper, so this makes it totally feasible.
Also, try googling "marching band competitions" or "marching band championships" with your state to find out more information about events in your locale.
These exhibitions and competitions will be a great addition to your cheap entertainment repertoire. And something that is great to expose your children to.

ha ... I never thought of being part of an audience to a high school band performance, when I didn't know anyone in the band. Let alone actually attend the high school!
Could be fun, though.
Thanks!
