I am currently in a funk... I haven't had the need to post in a while. I have however reached a milestone in my life. I realized that Thursday night will be my last gig with the bands. I will conduct the jazz band one more time. WOW, ten years with this group. The funny thing is they won't remember me after about 3 weeks. You know, out of sight, out of mind. As I look back on the years, I remember all those musical milestones. Jazz volley ball, jazz scooter jumping, Sydney drilling threw his leg, the jazz chair spinning (in which Jonathan hurt himself pretty badly), jazz kite flying, jazz truck riding and oh yeah, we played jazz every once in awhile. When it comes to marching band, that is a whole other story. I think it will be best if I place all of that in a box and hide it in my attic. I won't know what to do with myself on Fridays in the Fall. I guess I will have to get me a part-time job stocking at Walmart.
Any who, time marches on. I realize that the other convoginators on this list are all former students... You guys were great! You helped me realize that I wanted to get as far away from high school band as possible...Thanks for the memories!
