I Love You Eric!
Apr. 9th, 2008 11:04 amToday is National Sibling Day , and since I have a sibling, I thought I'd let you all know. :)
And now, a tale from Wind Ensemble.
Doc wasn't there last night, but since we have a concert on Saturday we had rehearsal anyways. Zach Benson (Bensen?) conducted for us, and he did a fabuolus job. The only problem was the random 3/2 measures in this one song, but Doc has issues with those too, so whatever.
Then we got to "Dance", which song we NEVER play right, and we were all like... "Yeah. Let's try it anyways." And I said to Zach, cause I play clarinet and am right up there near the conductor, "Just wave your arms and pray." And someone else goes, "That's what Doc does with this song anyways." (It actually turned out ok, cause we played it slower than usual.)
It was just really nice, to see a group of students come together and practice without teacher supervision, and not screw around, and actually play pretty well. I like it when people are mature. It gives me faith in humanity.
ETA: I am retarded. Sibling Day is tomorrow. Whatever. We can celebrate early.
