I had originally planned to post a blog entitled "Redcoat Band Camp 2011: The Wrap-up" a while back, but I never got around to it, so it's just not going to happen! :)
The football season starts in just ten days, so I am very excited about that, but there are exciting things happening before then that I need to talk about!
Tomorrow (Thursday, August 25, 2011) will be a very long, yet interesting day. First, we are starting rehearsal off with a marching test that will determine who will march in our pregame which is very old school (8-5 steps all the way). Then, after practice is over, the first round of Battle Hymn solo auditions will be held. I am so nervous/excited about this!! If I am selected to be one of the lucky few that get to play the solo in the Battle Hymn, one of our most sacred traditions, it will not only make my day, but also my week, and probably my year! After that, I get to book it over to the School of Music for Volleyball Band rehearsal.
Speaking of Volleyball Band, our first games are this Saturday! The first one is at 12:30 and the second one starts at 7:00! Also, between the games, I am playing with the Derbies Pep Band at the Chic-fil-a on Beechwood in Athens. I think it goes without saying that I am going to be very musically tired after this weekend!
