Confession 2

Hey Bandies!

Marching season is a little bit like being a part of a crazy group of amazing people that you spend a ridiculous amount of time with until you're all sick of each other.

Concert season is like...sitting in class, playing music and getting scolded for talking. A lot.

We got new pieces to sightread, but we're all really just killing time because break starts on Wednesday!

And of course the big shake-up: challenges. I'm not concerned because my chair is secure, but I'll be sad to see some of my fellow clarinet buddies go...

Confession 1

I am in marching band withdrawal. It's only been, what? A week and some odd days since we epicly failed at Grand Nats. So I'm still reeling a bit from that horrible end to such an amazing season. We recently had a concert. Insert joy and or rapture. That went okay, but I'm pretty sure I'm the only one who actually cares about band.

And now I'm off to play my clarinet.
