I forgot where I saw it, but I saw some bizarre inventions of Adolphe Sax on a website, if I can find it again, I'll post it. One was a cross between an Sax and a Bone.

Oh! And they played baseball! With... an invisible ball...

Depending on whether or not we make Semi's, I'll either be watching or performing on Saturday. I'll come up to see you when we watch. If I can...

Because you're too busy picking your nose? jk Why is the majority of my facial hair invisible? I want a beard

It's like comparing apples and oranges in my opinion. Marcus' show is very entertaining, and VERY well done. I love it. Bell's show gave me nightmares, and it's VERY well done. I love it. I'll have to go with Bell because the only prop they use is a garbage truck. Why is life awesome right now?

Nachos. I'm not much of a Frito person. Interesting SA scores, eh?

I'm glad Reagan was able to do well with such a UIL show

Wait, did you say Houston was the 108th most dangerous? I find that hard to believe.

Theres bound to be some other people here who are going to GN next week. Anyone up for setting a meeting point and time?

Holy Crap Bowie didnt make finals!

naw, I drink milkshakes and I'm definitely not fat. If you think and therefore you are, then does that mean stupid people don't exist?

Decent. We lost the most important game of the season so far, but won all our other district games. What do you get on your burritos at Freebirds/Chipotle?

wait wait. Are you saying that if we could bear to march Cadets, theres a chance that we saxophonists have a chance at marching corps without learning a new instrument?

Streak across the field! Why are grilled cheese sandwiches so good?

Because we have random people answering all our questions and solving our problems. Does anyone here read Maddox? (www.thebestpageintheuniverse.net)

I'm personally going with White, but the Black was pretty awesome too. Not to mention they won their first and only World Championship in the black.

Janet Jackson at the super bowl?

I sat with some people from SFA at BOA Arlington, they said that they pulled out of GN. Because: Here's the kicker-instead of spending money on GN, they spent $8,000 on chairs. That doesn't make too much sense to me. But what do I know? Not enough.

The Cadets *shudder* held a camp here in Austin this summer, and encouraged woodwinds to come. I tried learning Mellophone last year, but several factors made that fail. So now I'm taking Baritone lessons, and doing quite well.

One of our Bari players was trying (unsuccessfully) to diddle tongue once during a parade, cut his tongue and he didn't notice, tried to empty out his spit valve and the spit was completely red. He hasn't tried any kind of multiple tonguing since then.

Because they both stink. Like rotten onions. What's that noise coming from my closet?

So, I'm really in the mood for some America O' Canada. Does anybody know where I can find it? Its not on the DCI website, since they don't play it anymore.

I don't think I met James. He was first chair Alto (blond guy with a goatee? That guy had killer tone!), I was on Tenor (last chair unfortunately. I worked more on my piece for solo and ensemble more and didnt care too much about my chair at state. I was just glad to have finally made it.) Thats one way to flutter tongue. An easy way is to fold the front of your tongue to where it touches the roof and blow. Once you get that down, try it with a sax. If that doesn't work, just hum a different note while you play. Nice little growl effect. If you sing a pitch at the right interval, it sounds like flutter tonging.

Akins made me very happy. They were so supportive of everybody in finals. Every band they saw they all yelled out "Go (Performing Band)!" I love seeing stuff like that.

Last time, didnt LD Bell win get like, 1 1 1 1 2? Seems pretty consistant to me...
