I believe a weekend update is in order.
On Friday, our band went to the District Band Festival, which is an adjudicated performance that is basically the biggest event of our wind ensemble year. To offer a little bit of background, our band had never done spectacularly at festival prior to Dr. Fischer's debut (and keep in mind that I'm putting things mildly--we've done ABYSMALLY in the past). The way that scores work is like this: three judges award you a rating from I to IV based on a thousand different factors, and if you get an overall rating of I, you qualify for the state band festival and everybody throws you a party and sacrifices babies in your favor. Well, not really, but it's a really big accomplishment.
So that's festival in a nutshell. Anyway, we've been working our derrieres off and finally managed to earn an overall rating of I on Friday.
My senior year rules so far.
Thank you.
