summer's over

[notfilc]

Well, tomorrow is our last day of band camp. It's been a lot of work, but I think we did really well. Our numbers are slightly b/c this rookie class is tiny, but that means that all the other kids have at least a year of experience. So our learning curve has been really high. The sound really good (well while we're inside b/c they get really tired, really quick when we're outside.) I can't believe we actually have the first 3 tunes on the field in just 5 days. Granted the music isn't as difficult as before, but I think it's really working out well. We're doing a Jazz theme. First tune is "Birdland", 2nd is "And all that jazz" from the musical Chicago, and the 3rd is "Sing, sing, sing." Our closure will be "Land of make believe" and we'll probably have that on the field in by the 2nd week of school. I expect to be completely done with learning the show by the Band-o-rama August 24th. BTW... the preview show is tomorrow (Friday, July 28) at 7 (EST.) C'mon out and support us! :-P Hope all is well. Out 'til later.

Oh, check out the MySpace profile I created for the band:
