== History==
In the original ''Pizza Time Theatre'' store on ''Winchester Blvd'', the Band Board, then called the 'Pizza Time Orchestra' was seen on a shelf beside ''Jasper T. Jowls'' amongst random objects. Some may have also been on the shelf near the back of the room next to ''Chuck E. Cheese'' and ''Crusty the Cat''. In the next store located on ''Kooser Rd,'' the orchestra was placed on a shelf between Jasper and Chuck. This was above the doorway leading into the Cabaret room, though now without other objects to obscure the instruments or moving parts. It is unclear where it was located on the [[Cyberamics Portrait Stage|Portrait Stage]], though on the [[Cyberamics Balcony Stage|Balcony Stage]] the Band Board was placed on a raised platform above ''Pasqually'', opposite to the ''Warblettes.''
In original Pizza Time Theatre stores on [[San Jose, CA (370 S Winchester Blvd)|Winchester Blvd]] and [[San Jose, CA (1371 Kooser Rd)|Kooser Rd]] the Drum Board, then dubbed the 'Pizza Time Orchestra' was seen on a shelf beside Jasper T. Jowls amongst random objects. When the [[Cyberamics Balcony Stage|Balcony Stage]] was created, the showroom dropped its filled shelves and placed the Drum Board on a raised platform near Pasqually, opposite to the Warblettes''.''

As balcony stages were converted to [[Cyberamics Rocker Stage|Rocker Stages]], the band board would be removed and assumedly destroyed.

An original Band Board alongside other PTT animatronics.



The Drum Board (also known as the Band Board) is a series of pneumatic controlled percussion instruments placed onto two boards used in Pizza Time Theatre restaurants.

Each pneumatic movement, in which there were 11, would strike its instrument upon activation, meant to bring real instruments to the entertainment experience. Similar to the Clapper Board, Flag Wavers, and Singing Flowers, it was an effect outside of the main stage, allowing the performance to extend outside the bounds of it.

History

In original Pizza Time Theatre stores on Winchester Blvd and Kooser Rd the Drum Board, then dubbed the 'Pizza Time Orchestra' was seen on a shelf beside Jasper T. Jowls amongst random objects. When the Balcony Stage was created, the showroom dropped its filled shelves and placed the Drum Board on a raised platform near Pasqually, opposite to the Warblettes.

Usage in Showtapes

The Drum Board was highly used in the initial few years of showtapes, being used in almost every single song. This lessened over each tape, reducing from the main instrumental to just additional sound effects. The last showtape to produce new Drum Board programming was Madame Oink III - "Tunnel of Love". Skit-Oink 3 Tunnel/Love W/XMAS was a rerelease of Oink III that included a new Christmas segment. This segment notably has no Drum Board usage, making it the first segment to stop new programming for the board. Due to re-use of older segments, the last showtape to ever use the Drum Board was Madame Oink IV - The Tune Machine.

Movement Rosetta

The Drum Board was part of Character Card 6, which was dedicated to both it and the Applause Board. Later on in the R12 stage format, this would be replaced with A/V features.
